could i have conceived two weeks later??

i had an ultrasound on december 30th and my gestational age was determined by the doctor to be 9 weeks and 1 day. i couldnt remember when my last period was so how accurate is the ultrasound at dating a pregnancy that early with no last menstrual period to go off my due date is august 3rd and hasnt changed. i am with my current boyfriend and i just wanted to make sure its his and not my exs, he is aware that i had sex two weeks after we broke up and we just want to make sure. could i have conceived on november 21?

I'd say theres not much chance that you conceived on 21st November. Going by that dating scan they are very accurate at dating the pregnancy. Going on a normal cycle if you were 9 weeks 1 day pregnant on December 30th that would mean the you ovulated and conceived APPROXIMATELY 7 weeks and 1 day before that. My calculations put that at November 10th when the baby was conceived or around that date, between 5th -10th November i would say. If you had conceived on November 21st then this would put you at 5 weeks and 4 days. Hope this was helpful.

The only way to know for sure is to do a paternity test when the baby is born. Good luck!

All babies develop at the same rate until 13 weeks. Early ultrasound dating is EXTREMELY accurate.

The u/s is the most accurate judge of your due date. They can't go wrong by taking u/s measurements. usually your last menstrual period just gives them an idea of when you are due. Nothing exact until an u.s is done. It sounds like its definitely your boyfriends =)
Good luck
