Due date?

[Seb]

I just got my bfp a few days ago & I can't believe I'm actually posting in here! Still hasn't sunk in. Anyway I have my docs appointment on Tues but just wondering if anyone can tell me how I work out my due date? Every calculator I use is giving me different dates. I ovulated on cd23 so I can't work it out (1st day of last af was 1st may. 'Average' cycle length is 32 but not sure if that's relevant when I know what day I ovulated).xx

your docs will work it out from the first day of your last period and it changes so give yourself a rough idea and leave it at that! It will change with every scan anyway! I'm the same as you, know when I ovulated, but implantation varies and I think this is one of the key factors in development, as is growth rate, which presumably has a margin of variability in it which these dating tools don't take into account! congrats on the BFP!!! xx

Pregnology has you at 9th Feb if you go by LMP and 14th Feb if you go by ovulation date (you ovulate very late which is why there is such a difference!!) Oh bless a little Valentines baby - we conceived this one on this Valentines day just gone

Although until dating scan mosts Dr's use the same (average) calculation which is normally a 28 day cycle!
