so even if im 7 weeks and one day now that would be like me getting pregnant before the baby was even conceived? sorry im confused how im 7 weeks according to the ultrasound but i had sex with that guy 4 weeks ago.

Mommy2Drake,

During Pregnancy, weeks are counted a little different. By the time you actually find out your pregnant, you're usually 4-5 weeks along.The reason for this is because weeks 1 & 2 are when you're body is gearing up for pregnancy, meaning, you aren't pregnant just yet but you're body is preparing itself for the possibility of the sperm and egg meeting. So, in reality pregnancy weeks start on the first day of your LMP.

If you want to learn more as to what happens in your body week by week, do some reading here: http://www.whattoexpect.com/pregnancy/week-by-week/landing.aspx

Also, keep in mind that your ultrasound is just an estimate of how far along you may be, it can be off by a few days but 7 weeks sounds about right.

Dear Anon,

The best we can do is help you try to narrow it down. Unfortunately, you will still need to perform a DNA test to know who the father is.

When was your last menstrual period? How many days apart are your cycles? 28? 30 days? What is your due date?

Mommy2drayke,

Usually, in a 28 day cycle, ovulation occurs on or around day 14...which would be June 25th.
Using your due date and date of LMP, this would also be the day that you were ovulating. So, based on this information your baby's father would likely be the man who you had sex with on the 25th.

Remember this is just an estimate, a DNA test will give you a guaranteed result of who the father is.

Wishing you the best,

Rosa
