Can EDD Be A Yardstick To Confirm The Exact Date Of Conception?

I slept with 2 ppl max 2 weeks apart. .. I don t sleep around at all. This is just how it happened. Please don t judge. I had my period after guy #1 around the 4th of July. I slept with guy 2 on July 10th. Never had a period again, as I knew I was pregnant because my periods are exactly every 28days n I took a pregnancy test on August 4th. My ultrasound EDD was April 2nd EXACTLY nailed to the date of conception. I have an upcoming paternity test to determine that guy #2 is the father. I m certain he is! Or is it just me?? Thanks so much for responding!!

Hello madam,the EDD calculated from LMP is accurate provided you had three previous regular cycles .EDD from first trimester USG is more accurate than second and third trimester USGs.If u have correct LMP and first trimester USG done then your dates are considered good.
