Date of Conception?

Question

Hello ladies!
I’m currently pregnant (12 weeks 3 days) due August 11th. Which puts the date of conception at November 4th. We had sex on October 30th and 31st. Does that seem right? I know sperm can live up to 3 days in the body but even with that rule, the date of conception would be the 2nd or 3rd.

Answer

My EDD would put conception 5 days ahead of when conception took place - and I know exactly when baby was conceived as I was tracking ovulation and we didn’t have sex before ovulation day due to the fact I had my HSG that cycle and we weren’t allowed to have sex until after the HSG. So basically all it’s quite inexact - I wouldn’t read into it too much!

Answer

Unless you need to know for paternity I wouldn’t worry about it too much as it doesn’t actually matter.

Answer

Dates aren’t a science, and babies can grow at different rates. I wouldn’t put too much weight on it. 
Realistically, sperm lives 1-3 days, but they can live up to 5!
