Conceived pregnancy date.

Ok so I am 5 months pregnant, I am due July 8th.. I had sex around October 16th and somewhere around October 23.. Can you guys give me your opinion on which time period I was most likely to conceive?

Your due date is only as good as when the ultrasound was done.  You had one done at a stage of pregnancy where there is a week's possible margin for error when trying to use ultrasound information to say a conception date.  You should plan to get a DNA test when the baby is born just to be sure.

Hi, well, many doctors will say that a 12th-week ultrasound has a margin for error of +/- 7 days.  A July 8 due date favors the first guy, but with a margin for error of a week, it also doesn't rule out the second guy.  Is the baby a girl or boy?

Did you get your due date from an early ultrasound?  If so, how early?

I had my first ultrasound when I was 3 months.
And they gave you the due date from the ultrasound?  By 3 months, do you mean 12 weeks?
yes
