How Is A Pregnancy Due Date Calculated?
Hi, I m in a little situation... My LMP was August 14 - 21st 2014. I have a period the 14th of every month, which means my cyles are probably around 30 days. I found out I was pregnant and according to my dating scan and possible conception I concieved on the 6th of September 2014. My due date is May 28th 2015... Is it possible to ovulate and get pregnant that late into a cycle? Or is my dating scan way off? (I had three different scans and all had the same due date)

Pregnancy is not mathematics
humans use to deliver in prehistoric times when there was no calender also
so dont panic 99% cases delivery never happens on the date calculated by USG/LMP
use just need to keep regular checks with your doctor
and in last month (may) watch out for list of symptoms (your doctor will tell you) regarding those
and rush to hospital if you start getting any of those
best of luck !!!
