Confused about conception date

Hi,

please no judgement I’ve done nothing but stress and worry constantly since finding out I’m pregnant.

basically I’m 18 weeks & 4 days pregnant, I found out on the 23rd of April clear blue said 2-3 weeks, I had an early ultrasound on the 2nd of may gestational age 6+2 and one at 7+4 which matched both the 24/12/23 for due date. I had my 12 week dating scan and the due date then changed by 1 day 23/12/23, I had sex with my ex stupidly on the 2nd of March then took plan b . My period was around 8 days late I had a bleed from the 15 of March until the 21st, I assume this was my normal period and just arrived late, i then had sex on the 30th & 31st of March with a guy I started seeing and again the week after too, the ultrasounds are matching to 18th & 19th of March a few days after I had the bleed, could anyone help reassure me or tell me which one could possibly be the father, taking 2 weeks of the 18th would mean I conceived the 1st of April but I’m so confused :(

Going off your due date your conception date would be around 30th March. The scans will add 2 weeks on to the date of conception to work out how far along you are in pregnancy which is around the time of your period. So you can 100% be sure that it is the new guy not your exes. If it was your exes you’d be about a month ahead of what you are now.

I'm due 3rd Jan and conceived mid April so I would say you conceived late march/early April so I would think it's the new guy. Congrats on your pregnancy

I conceived the first week of march and I am due the 26th of November, had a positive test by the 15th of March so I would also think it's the new guy x

@PickledScrump

hey sorry I’m using another account I don’t no why I can’t access the one I wrote the message on!

thank you, I’m just so worried, more recently! I think just because my period was late, I’m worrying my cycles are usually long and messed up anyway but that month was a lot later than normal, do you think scan could be off by this many weeks? I just really hope it was my period I can’t stop worrying I just want to enjoy my pregnancy 😣 I’ve also had 5 scans and they’ve all dated me between 16/03/23 to the 18/03/23

December23 · 28/07/2023 18:44

@Tryingtoconceivenumber2 Yeah if I was working out dates it would need to be a full month ahead too but I just can’t help but worry hence why I’ve come on here for advice. Thank you ❤️X

@Salamander91

yeah im just worrying to much more so recently I think as time goes on I’m panicking, the dates all add to my last period but I can’t stop worrying myself sick. Thank you very much, congratulations to you too❤️

PickledScrump · 28/07/2023 19:47

@December23 i conceived beginning of feb and I’m due end of October. If you had conceived beginning of March you would be due end of November, your scans would not be off by that many weeks. They’re accurate to a couple of days either side, not weeks.

Hey girls hope your all okay, so me and my partner slept with each numerous times from the 7th January- 12th January but then we broke up and I went and slept with someone on the 2/3rd February I then took a clear blue digital on the 11th February and it came back pregnant 3+ weeks i went for a private scan on the 25th February and they said i was 7 weeks and 1 day, im now currently 30 + 1 weeks, now I understand I'm probably being silly but me and my partner are back together and I have pure anxieties about this other guy being the dad and not my partner everyone keeps telling me I'm being silly but I suppose I'm here to just get some other opinions. Please let me know your thoughts girls and please please do not judge me it was just a rebound and a silly mistake

@Tay199

congratulations on your pregnancy 🥰 taking 2 weeks off the 7+1 makes conception around the 12/13 of January I think, so I’m almost sure it would be your partners. It’s so worrying I completely get you, I’ve honestly had the worse pregnancy with worrying so much already, hope your ok not long until you meet your little one❤️

December23 · 28/07/2023 22:48

@PickledScrump Aw okay thanks so much, that’s abit reassuring it’s so hard not to worry. Guess it’s my own fault for being so stupid. Has your ultrasounds all matched up to your conception dates too? Congratulations on your pregnancy ❤️

Tay199 · 28/07/2023 23:18

I hope your okay, thanks for your reply it is so worrying I just think I'm worrying too much about it, this pregnancy has not been easy for me this time round.

Hi girl, I’d try not to worry as I think if it was the other guys you’d be like 4 weeks ahead in pregnancy surely? Like the sex you had with him was around 4 weeks prior to your current partner.
I have been worrying throughout pregnancy but for other reasons so I get it, I was worried my dates at ultrasound didn’t match my LMP but I’ve now found out that’s normal!
I think pregnancy is just a very stressful time 😂
