Hi..Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..
I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
Gestational age can easily calculated from last menstrual period date. normally conception take place 14 days or 2 weeks after last menstrual period(LMP). So she must got pregnant in middle of march.
She would be now 33 week pregnant( on nov 24) according to her Last menstrual periods. So she should be due in 3 weeks approximately december 12 as told by your doctor
Hope this information helps
