Q: Conception Accuracy
asked by: 200696 on April 30th, 2009

Hello, my girlfreind is pregnant and is now exactly 20 weeks and 5 Days (as of 29th May 2009). The first time we found out that she was pregnant was on the 23rd Jan 2009 and at that time she was 8 weeks. What was the conception date? I was away from the 17th till the 30th of Dec and the doctors are saying that the conception date was around the 21st - 27th December. Can you please tell me how accurate the conception dates given to me.

It is impossible to say after the fact when she ovulated. The doctor's estimate is based on some statistics and some rules of thumb and it can be off by a few days. Also remember that sperm can survive for a few days in the cervical mucus before the egg comes along.
