How to I work out my due date? I'm confused!

Question

Right I'm really confused guys, my first day of my last period is the 10th May, which when I've put into the due date calculator it works out at 14th feb!! Buttt when worked backwards my conception date would then be the 24th of May which I know me and my partner didn't have sex on. Does your cycle come into play at all? I'm a 31 day cycle so from 10th May, that's feb 17th which works out as my conception day as 27th of May which we did have sex on. I might of answered my own question but I need someone's advice please!

Answer

You have the exact same dates as me :)

Answer

Sperm last for a couple of days so It doesn't matter if you never had sex on the 24th. But it's from the first day of your last period. It could be a little different if your cycles are longer. But once you get an ultrasound they will have more of an idea.

Answer

Sperm can hang around for days so you don't axial my have to have BD'd on your 'conception' date, you might've BD'd a day or few before and conception took place a day or two later

Answer

Also you don't have to have sex on the day you ovulated to become pregnant, for me I had sex two days before I ovulated and still got pregnant.

Answer

It would really depend when you ovulated. Due dates are just an estimate anyways. According to the date of your last menstrual period, you would be due 2/14/15, but your OB may change your due date when you have your dating ultrasound.
