Due date

At my first sonogram appointment on august 5th they said i was 11wks 5 days. If i went back 11wks 5days i get May 15th. If i put may 15th on the due date calculator would it give me the accurate due date?

If the sonoqraam was Auqust 5th when yu were 11w5d then yu qo bak that same amount of time to qet yur last period which shud say May 22 (since i calculated for yu) which means yur Due Date word be a very rare day (because of leap year) February 29...&n for anyone who wants to knw how they really teach yu to calculate our due dates yu can tame the first day of yur last period then add 7 days to that number next take the month yur last period was in &n bak 3 months before that it will qive yu which day &n month yur Due Date is...i have never been wronq about my due date when i went to the doctor i knew before they could tell me eachtime.

I'm sure if you call the help centre you were at they could give you that information.

They did but i went to the pregnancy help center for an ultrasound then went to a dr that made me really uncomfortable so i went to a dif dr but by then i was in my second trimester so the sonogram they did wouldnt be as accurate. And i cant remember what the due date was that the pregnancy help center gave me so i was trying to calculate it from the first sonogram to see what the dif was between that one and the last one i got.

They should've given you a due date based on your first ultrasound.

It's calculated from your last missed period, so if you were 11 weeks 5 days count back 11 weeks and 5 days and enter that as your last missed period and it should give your due date.

I mean would that be the way they calculate it or would i need to add or subtract something to get the most accurate due date. Im expecting to be delivering 36-37 wks because i had my first daughter at 36 wks. Im hoping to make it till 37 at least. I just want to have the most accurate due date according to my first sonogram cause thats supposed to be the most accurate sonogram. If i go by the due date they have at my drs office my second daughter will most likely be born either about 4 days before my first daughters bday or about 3 days after if i go into labor at 36-37wks.
