Does your gestational age of the baby date back to the exact date of conception?

Does your gestational age of the baby date back to the exact date of conception?

This is a really complicated story...i really need someones help about this because it is depressing me and worrying me out completely..i know i'm probably worrying over nothing but i just cannot get this out of my head. Please help me.

I am 14 weeks and 2 days pregnant....i have a preety normal cycle as i get my period every month..i got my last period on the 11th of july..it lasted till the 15th july and on the next day the 16th of july i slept with a guy.

i got back with my boyfriend the 26th of july and had unprotected sex that night and many times after that before i found out i was pregnant.

I am almost certain that my boyfriend is the father of this baby because i had sex with the other guy one day after my period and slept with my boyfriend around the time i would have been ovulating.

its just i'm really confused now because when i went for my dating scan the baby measured at 11 weeks and 5 days..and when i count back it gives me a date of the 20th which was before i got back with my boyfriend.

Can this scan be off by a few days and am i worrying myself too much about this?

Please give me a good enough answer as i am very depressed over this and cannot get excited about my pregnancy over the worry.

The gestational age dates back to your last period so the timeframe would match when you slept with the guy right after your period. It is unlikely that he is the father of your child since right after you have your period your cervical mucus is hostile and even if the sperm did survive it only lasts 3-5 days tops..so no way would it last until you ovulated.

Yep the date you conceived would be 14- 16 days before your period was due, so it going to be the BF baby. For example I am 17 weeks pregnant but I conceived 15 weeks ago.
