So the first ultrasound that gave you your due date was done at approximately 14 weeks pregnant?  That means there would be a margin for error (when using it to try to determine conception date) of plus or minus about a week or a little more.  If you had had a really early ultrasound, it could be trusted to be closer to spot-on, but over time in pregnancy some babies can grow faster or slower than average.  (By the time you are at 40 weeks, using an ultrasound to try to determine a conception date can be off by more than three weeks!)  Your due date suggests conception around the time you had sex with the second guy.  But the margin for error keeps the first guy slightly in the picture.  If all of your subsequent ultrasounds have given you the same due date, that is more promising for the second guy, suggesting your baby is growing at an average rate and not faster or slower.  If I had to bet, I'd say the second guy is the dad.  But it's close enough that you do have to rule the first guy out with a DNA test.

Hi, and the first ultrasound (in which they said the estimated due date was the 14th), how early in the pregnancy was that ultrasound?

Hi, le1213.  How did you get your due date?  Was it from an ultrasound?  If so, how early in the pregnancy was the ultrasound?  Your dates are pretty close, putting more pressure on the question of how accurate your estimated due date is.  I hope it came from an early ultrasound and not from a doctor counting on a calendar or little wheel.

Okay sorry soooo I take that back. On my pregnancy calculator app that I have if they are giving you a due date of Dec. 13th this is what it shows...

First day of last menstrual cycle: March 7, 2016

The average cycle length: 28 days

Estimated Fertility Window: March 17, 2016 - March 27,2016

Estimated Conception Date: March 22,2016

Estimated Gestational Age: 24 weeks, 2 days.

Hopefully this helps you out! :)

In reality it could be neither because if your due date is in December that means you conceived in February. A pregnancy is a total of a 10 month period.. So by March you were already pregnant.. Just about to be a month if not yet so, then you might of missed your period to where you were symbolized something wasn't right, did a pregnancy test and I guess thats how you found out... Your body takes about 3-4 weeks before your pregnancy is detected in a test.
