Pregnancy weeks?

Question

I don't understand this... I might be stupid or somthing lol but this is my first baby so it's confusing.  I'm 29 weeks .. 29 weeks ago was my last period  (oct21-25) so does that mean the baby is actually 29 weeks also? Or is she like 28 or somthing technically? I have a 35 day cycle roughly just trying to figure out if I conceived the week of my period or not..sorry if it's confusing lol

Answer

They go by the date of your last period. Although you ovulate roughly 2 weeks after, five or take. Because doctors can't pinpoint when you ovulate they use last period. So technically your baby is about 27 weeks. It's why they let you go to 42 weeks though.

Answer

They date your pregnancy from the first day of your last period. So at ovulation, when conception actually occurs, you are already approx 2 weeks pregnant. That is how they date the baby as well.
