I measured 1 day behind what she was supposed to be I don't think they measure behind normally instead maybe bigger
I know mine is off. I was taking ovulation tests daily. I knew when exactly my period started and ended and the day I had a positive ovulation test and the exact date we had sex after ovulation. I knew when I conceived but they told me at my first ultrasound that I was a week off. I said I was 10 weeks and they insisted based on ultrasound that I was 11 weeks.
I was told a ultrasound before teelve weeks can have a 4-5 day margain of error by a dr so im going with their medical opinion over sex ed but if its after.that stage then the margain of error is greater
I've had the same problem! But mine is because I had sex with 2 diff guys:-/ but your ultrasound shouldn't be off by 2 weeks with your conception
It may or may not be. That's the weird thing about pregnancy, it's still not an exact science.
Lol that's weird I knew it could happen I just didn't think an ultrasound at 8 weeks is going to be off by 2 weeks
Lol thats luck of the draw
Yep. And BAM. Prego. Before that month, I only had sex with condoms too. One time, unprotected, almost to my cycle. Prego. Nature is funny that way.
Heather was that the only time you had sex that month?
Misread that one - but yes, you can even conceive during that. Low chances, but a chance.
@July2baby That's EXACTLY when my daughter was conceived at 16yrs old. A week before my period. Ovulated late.
@crisram I couldn't help myself! Maybe they don't teach these things in every sex ed class? Different states and all? I'm in Cali. It just drives me nuts that mamas are about to be mamas and have no idea how it happens lol!
I've been trying to figure out when I conceived not because two different dads just curiosity since I only has sex the day before and of my last period and then 3 days leading up to the "conception date"iI was given from my 8 week ultrasound and I just didn't think that I would've concieved by having sex 5 days before my period ended but my sister is trying to tell me that's when I got pregnant so I'm just really confused
Sperm can live for a max of around 6 days...you guys are making it seem like it lives for weeks it doesnt...
Like Heather said, even if the ultrasound is right on, sperm live for several days and could still be any guy that was let in there.
Early ultrasounds are more sccurate than later ones but yeah they can be off..
Lol I love this! And I read it with so much sarcasm :))
They changed my conception dates 3x because of early ultrasounds
An early ultrasound ima going to be 2 weeks off?
Ultrasounds can be two weeks off in either direction.
Not to the exact day, it's an estimate. Of there are two men, and sperm live for days, still could be either one.
Yeah ultrasounds can actualy be way off. They are just an estimate anyway.
So your saying an ultrasound isn't going to be accurate on when you conceived?
