Conception

[dgodinez1008]

My son was born on August 14, 2003.  The last day I ever had intercourse with his mother was November 3, 2002.  I have tried many online calculators and it seems impossible for him to be my son.  The date of conception on the calculator was Nov.  22.  Can you have a deviation of 20 days from the date of estimated conception??

I feel your pain.

Although I doubt the baby was mine because of the timeline, 9 months and 18 days, I regret to this day not at least pursuing the truth, with that said if you have doubts don't hesitate.

The last time I had intercourse with my ex and after we had already separated was January 9 1988, she subsequently delivered a baby October 27 1988.

BTW - if you love your wife, forgive her indiscretion and love the child as though it were your own.

First of all are you absolutely sure that November 3, 2002 was the absolute last day that you had intercourse. Most people cannot remember when they had sex last week let alone 6 year ago.
Secondly, did your doctor give you an estimated date of delivery. And do you remember the first day of the last menstrual period of your mother of your son on the month of conception. The estimated date of delivery or birth is determined by taking the first day of the last menstrual period then adding 40 weeks to that date plus or minus about 2 weeks. It seems that if your son was conceived around Novmeber 3rd then August 14 could theoretically fall around the EDD of July 26th plus 2 weeks. Even though the last day of intercourse was on November 3rd the actual conception could have been a few days later and then everything falls within the window of due date of July 26th plus 2+ weeks. Did you remember anything about inducing labor because your son was overdue?

Hello. Go to that sidte and on the top it gives you options like Ovulation date, Transfer date. Last Period. Choose Ovulation date and put in the date that you last had sex with her. On the bootom hit calculate and it will give you expected delivery date. Reason I say to put the ovulation date, is because woman can only get pregnant during ovulation. Once she is pregnant doctors count pregnancy from the first day  of her last period. When she is 4 weeks pregnant, it means she concieved 2 weeks ago. I hope this helps. Good luck

Thanks!  I tried the site your suggested and I am getting a delivery date of July 26th.  I tried it several times and got the same thing.  Let me know if I am doing something wrong.

Yes he is yours. If you go to this webside and put in november 3rd as ovulation date, then expected delivery date would be August 14. Sounds like you had intercourse with her on her ovulation day. Usually they count from first day of her period.
