can ultrasounds be wrong about conception

I didnt find out I was pregnant til I was 14 weeks 3 days pregnant and they determined my conception date by ultrasound. They told me I conceived April17-19 and my due date was january 7th. I am ashamed to say but I was with the 1st guy from january to april, and with the second guy May 10th. Is it possible that the ultrasound was wrong and the sencond guy is the father? Please no rude or judgmental comments.

Let's say a woman gets pregnant on January 1.  She is due 40 weeks later.  But she gets under a lot of stress and gets dehydrated, and has a minor car accident, in August.  She has the baby August 10.  Does that change the fact that she conceived on January 1?

Thank you, I just didn't know like where I went into labor on my own and had my daughter on december 22 if it made a difference about when I got pregnant. Thank you for your reply, I have been so stressed out over this.

Well, it's nice to hear that the one by far most likely to be the dad is the one you want to be the dad.  So often its the opposite.  :)  I don't think you have a lot to worry about.

Thank you. I just want so badly for the first guy to be the daddy, I filed for a dna but I have just been stressing so much about it that I just wanted someone elses opinion.

Even though an ultrasound at 14w3d is not going to be pinpoint to the exact day in accuracy, it will not be off as far as three and a half weeks.  You sound like you were pregnant by May, and the slight bleeding is also symptomatic of pregnancy (tender cervix).
