No they kinda need that, or I belive they can measure. But you should try to remember roughly! Good luck! Let us know how it goes! Are you getting a doc for free or no?

Ah, I don't even look at it that way! Lol they can estimate it when you have a u/s. Only 4% of babies are born on their edd, lord knows chey won't be! She was due on november 1st then october 29th and now october 15th! Lol they will probably change the date on ya depending on how fast the baby is growing!!

Good luck and best wishes

Lol, I never ever kept track of my period. I don't remember the last time...I think it was august 20th, and I was expecting it the 4th of september, but it never came. *shrug*

and I dont know about the doc yet, jessika

I know that ova here they can find out by giving u an internal examination as ur organs change when u become pregnant

When I went into the doctor when I first found out that I was pregnant, I didn't know far along I was either. I couldn't remember the exact date of when my last period was. So all they did was an internal ultrasound. It's a rod that has a camera at the end. They insert it into the vagina and it show a picture on the screen of the tiny baby. From there, they measure the whole length of the (what looks like a blob) baby, and from there, the screen shows what the due date is. I was five weeks then and at nine weeks she gave me another vaginal ultrasound, because she said at nine weeks, that it would show the most accurate due date, even from your 20 week ultrasound. Anyways, a normal ultrasound won't show the baby accurately at this stage in a pregnancy. However, I would suggest that if you are going to continue having sex, that you might want to keep a calender of some sort to jot down when your periods start and end, that way you will know when to be expecting your period next.
