About Brenda
Expertise
I have been an R.N. since 1988 and come from a family of nurses. I have clinical experience in labor and delivery, as well as post-partum care and pre-term pregnancy complications. I have also worked in Community Health Clinics dealing with this area of expertise, including WIC (Women, Infant, & Children) clinics performing nursing evaluations and assessments in determining a need for services or intervention for pregnant women, newborns, and young children. I have worked in immunization clinics in and around my community as well. I also have several years experience in OB and Pediatric Home Care Nursing. In addition to that, I am a mother of two, ages 21 and 16, both of which I had hoped would be vaginal deliveries, but ended up being C-Sections... one of which had me in pre-term labor...another which was frank breech (bottom first)... one who rejected the breast... and so on... to list my personal experience would be a bit lengthy! I'd simply like to help anyone who might have a question or concern that I can draw on my expertise to answer!

Expert: Brenda - 7/23/2008

Question
My last monthly period first day...may 11 2008
ultrasound said my last month period was 8 weeks 5 days as of july 11. Due date is feb 24...
i was told the ultrasounds are very accurate...
when did i concieve?
i tried to send last question not sure if it send if so im sorry. Thank you for your help...if you need any info off my ultrasound if you did not recieve last message will be glad to send this info to you thank you.

Answer
Dear Brittany,

From what I calculate, with a LMP date of 5/11 and a history of 28 day cycles, your estimated date of conception would be 5/25/08. This seems to be confirmed by ultrasound. With this dating, you would have been 8 weeks on 7/6, and therefore 8 5/7 weeks on 7/11. However, I calculate an estimated due date of 2/14/09.

I hope this information has helped you and answered your question. I wish you well.

Brenda
