Due date confusion

Hi,

Can anyone work out my due date for me? My last period was 4th February but that was my first period since coming off the pill in September! I ovulated on cycle day 35 which was 10th/11th March, so will the midwives go 40 weeks from when I ovulated or 38 weeks when I ovulated? Because I’ve read gestational age goes from 2 weeks before conception happens 😊 hope this makes sense. In my head I have 3 possible dates.. 11th November (going from first date of last period) but I know that probably won’t be the case, 2nd December which is 38 weeks after ovulation or 16th December which is 40 weeks after ovulation😂

They will go 40 weeks from first day of last period 😊
And then adjust it at your 12 weeks scan to roughly 38 weeks from when you ovulated

It won't be 40 weeks after ovulation 😊
So they'll go by your first date to start with and then at your scan you'll probably be adjusted to your second date
