Cycle Length
Just curious ladies as my cycle has always been 21 days and I was just wondering if it had any effect on my due date?? I mentioned it to my mw on my booking in appoint and she was surprised and said that I must of miscounted - even though its been the same since I started my periods!!! anyway I know it probably doesnt I was just curious thats all as I know everything is based on a 28 day cycle.

Cheers for that
nutty midwife!! you always ovulate 14 days before your period starts, so a 21 day cycle would put your date 7 days before a 28 day cycle! however, Drs are notorious for changing things ( i got changed by 2 days with my first! eh?!), so i would leave it to them to look at the scan & decide!
MW should always calculate due date from first day of last period. However your scan should be able to give you the accurate date so no doubt you'll have your dates revised. My cycles were anything from 28-35 days. I used ovulation test strips and based on these rather than the mw date my due date came out the same as that of the 12wk scan!
