  • Hi Laurajayne, obviously it's impossible to say for sure but the conception date sounds more likely to be 14th Feb, i.e. your partner. Dating via scans is never exact and 3 days out isn't much really - my estimated due date changed by 3 days from my 9 week scan to my 13 week scan and I still don't really know which is more accurate now as I had irregular periods when I got pregnant. If the conception date was 30th Jan, then the scan date would be out by up to 2 weeks (depending on ovulation), which sounds less likely to me.

    Are your periods regular? That might make it easier to figure out when conception was more likely, but it does sound like it was probably the 14th Feb to me.

  • They are quite regular within a few days i knowi had a period first week to 2nd week of january as i have my ovulation dates wrote down for between the 17th and 22nd of jan as a rough estimate going on the 2 week after period rule x
