    Due date and lmp confusion
    Okay I'm still really lost here.. PLEASE READ ALL BEFORE ANSWERING! THANK YOU.


    So on August 11th the doctor told me I was 7 weeks and 1 day pregnant. My period is 30 days long I think?


    THESE ARE MY PAST 2 PERIODS:


    MAY 8TH 2013
    JUNE 8TH 2013


    I am 29 weeks and 2 days pregnant today! My boyfriend fingered me and I'm not sure if there was pre c u m but if there was it was a little? And this was on JUNE 23 BUT WE DID NOT HAVE SEX. I had unprotected sex and he came inside me on JUNE 29TH and JULY 5TH. My next period would have been July 9th or something I'm not sure entirely?


    My EDD IS March 30th and still is... My question here is when would I have conceived around? I know nobody knows for sure but an educated guess would be very helpful. I am so lost!


    I have tried doing the reverse calender things and I plugged my due date ( march 30th) into it and it says I conceived around July 6th which is cool whatever but it doesn't make sense because of my lmp. I also plugged in when I first found out I was pregnant ( AUG 11 when I was 7 weeks and 1 day) and it still says July 6th or 7th so I'm very lost here because they don't match my lmp did I ovulate late or something possibly?


    I was also on the depo shot from July 2012 and took it for 3 months and stopped and my period completely stopped as well. It didn't return until January 2013 and I had 3 long periods like 8 days long and then in April my period was only 1 day and then in may and June it was 5 days or 6 and it was may 8th and June 8th

    I am pretty sure I conceived in July but I'm not 100 percent sure I'm so confused.

    If you only had one partner, why the worry? Most likely you conceived when you had unprotected sex.

    I'm also wondering why you're so worried about this. Is there a question of paternity? Is that why you're concerned?

    Yeah, lets say guy A who was my boyfriend at the time was the one I messed around with but did not have sex. He fingered me and he had pre on his penis and I'm worried that he touched himself and then touched me. We broke up the next day. Then guy B my current boyfriend we had unprotected sex on June 29th and July 5th but I'm lost on who the dad is because my lmp was June 8th but on August 11th the doctor said I was 7 weeks and 1 day and I am due march 30th but march 30 doesn't match my lmp

    Well, in that case, you will need a paternity test after baby is born. Most likely the father of the child is the one you had unprotected sex with. However, it is still possible that the foreplay resulted in pregnancy as well.

    The dates of your encounters are too close together to rule one or the other out.

    Alrighty thank you. I think its my current boyfriends too most likely but I'm still confused on who's it could be just because on aug 11th I was 7 weeks so that means I conceived in July which would make it my current boyfriends. And I have heard it's a very slim chance getting pregnant from a small amount of pre and fingering.


    Do you think its more likely that my current boyfriend is the father rather than the other guy? In just your opinion.

    There maybe a slim chance, but it's still possible.

    Hmm.. well hopefully its my current boyfriends.. ill just have to do a test.


    So either way since I was 7 weeks on August 11th it could still be either guys?

    Yes, you will have to tell your boyfriend that he has to submit to a DNA test to determine paternity because there is a chance that he is not the father and it's possible another man is.

    This is a very oft asked question here and the answer is always the same. Calculating conception dates is an inexact science and could be as much as 3 weeks off. Basically, anyone you had sex with since your last period could be the father. While it is more likely to be the person you had intercourse with, there is a slim possibility it's the other guy. So the only way to know for sure is with DNA testing.

    I will agree with Scott, there is no way to narrow it down that close, and while it is the best chance of the one, it really could be other. You will have to do a DNA test to confirm after child is born.

    I am sorry, I know you really want a better answer, but that is just the facts of how conception dating works
