Hi..you have had two early pregnancy scans..that makes the pregnancy dating accurate..according to your ultrasound your pregnancy is most probably not the result of your 29th july sex, but has occurred after that. In fact around 13-14 days after 29th july, i.e. around mid august, fertilization and conception would have occurred.
Your 30th sept scan shows 7 wks 6 days i.e. around 2 months, which means lmp is around 2nd august and your due date accordingly would be around 9th may next year.
Again your 31st october scan also corresponds ,showing 12 wks 3 day preg i.e around 3 months.(lmp around 4th aug).
So you can be pretty sure that you have conceived in mid august and will be due around 9th may next year.
