    There is no way to know for certain by due dates and birth dates. While pregnant, did you have any scans done? If so, had your dates been accurate for your due date? Were you induced to have your baby 2 weeks passed the due date?

    Going just by the dates you provided, a rough guide would be likely towards the later part of March.

    But the issue is that conception dates, even due dates are so often give or take a couple weeks. So why worry about any specific date the child was conceived that date does not really matter anyway. But mid march though first part April, but even that is rough, most dating from ultrasound and then tract it back give or take two weeks would have been a rough estimate.

    Confused about my due date
    If my lmp was on 25.01.2012 and my due date is 12.12.2012 is it rite? Cause when the sister at the clinic calculates according to my lmp it gives us a due date 31.10.2012 but the scan is 12.12.2012

    Predicting due dates is an inexact science. I think the scan would return a more accurate estimate then going by your LMP.

    I merged your threads. Yesterday your baby was born 12/12/2011. Today its due 12/12/2012. Are you pregnant again? With the same due date?

    What's the real story here?

    Ok, so then why does it matter? As I said, predicting due date or conception dates is an inexact science. If you were given different due dates, why does it matter now that the child is born?

    And again, This is an inexact science. Maybe something else caused you to skip a period. Clearly, if the baby was born at the end of December, then your conception date was more likely in late March early April. But again, it doesn't matter. You have, presumably, a healthy child and are happy. Don't stress that you skipped a period in February.
