I swear they thought I was borderline psychotic with my last pregnancy because I would tell them over and over that my dates weren't wrong and if something was wrong then it was the baby ([emoji22]) because I know my body very well. So frustrating. Unfortunately, I was right.

Awwww *big hugs* I totally get it. That's why I chose the line of work I'm in, I like to empower women as much as I can. Most OB's scoff at charts :mad:
Ok ladies, so I went for a very long walk today. I haven't walked in at least a month. I felt pain in the same place I felt pain in when I suspect little bean implanted. It is on the right side of my uterus towards the bottom and the pain I get shoots down my leg up to my knee.
Can anyone relate?
Sorry Cosmosis, I can't relate but I can relate to the previous poster who has an issue with her dates.
I'm in the same boat, my last LMP was 1st Jan and I don't know when I ovulated as I was on this site initially learning how to gain a better understanding of my cycles. Anyway...I could have only conceived on either the 20th, 21st or 27th Jan and my next cycle should have started on 1st Feb. I obviously had late ovulation, and received my BFP on 6th Feb. I can't have become pregnant before at least the 20th Jan but due date calculators, and my healthcare team will insist on going by my last LMP.
Any thoughts?
Same ! I know when we dtd and when I go my pos opk so I know when this baby was concieved (didn't know before really as just dtd all the time ) but they will also go from LmP!
I suppose they just do it as an easier guideline to follow for everyone x

The only thing I can suggest is to fudge your LMP by reporting a different date all together. Due date estimations should be calculated based on Ovulation date not LMP. If a woman has 50 day cycles, using LMP puts her waaaaaaaaay off on her due date. On top of that, we are not pregnant when we are bleeding. It makes no sense.Quote:

1pinplease, between the 20th and the 27th is a whole week. Do you know on what cycle day you ovulated?
I just found a due date calculator that has date of conception as an option. I did LMP and my due date is 10/25/17 and by conception date and my due date is 11/12/17. That's a big darn difference people!
Butterflies - I think you're right. Many of my patients can barely tell me their LMP when I ask them at their appointments.

So strange. My OB always does a dating scan, which always coincides by my ovulation date. My due date is always within a day or two from what I suspect it is based on my chart. They always ask for a 2-3 day range of when I suspect I may have ovulated to calculate my due date and my average cycle length. I must be spoiled then, haha!

XX that's great!
I know I'm a "late" ovulator. Usually about 5-6 days later than the normal, making my cycles 33 days on average. Both of my boys came on their own time, 11 days early, and were decent size without any respiratory issue. It's crazy to think that based on conception they were both, likely, close to a month early! Right?
