Childbirth/WHAT DAY DID I GET PREGNANT

Question
MY DUE DATE IS APRIL 4 2009 WHAT DAY DID I GET PREGNANT

Answer
Deneshia,


Your conception date will vary if you have long and/or irregular cycles.  With this limited information, my best estimate is that you conceived around July 12th.

This date would be most accurate if you have regular cycles close to 28 days and ovulate in the middle of your cycle.



Best,
Catherine
