Hello,
Thanks for your query at DoctorSpring.com.

If you had intercourse on 25th May, and assuming that she conceived from that act, she would have been ovulating then. So her last period would have been 14 days before that, that is , somewhere around, 11th of May.

If you can tell me the date of her last menstrual period, that would also help me to pinpoint the dates more specifically.

Going by that, 3 months would have been completed on 3rd of August, or end of July.

This confusion is natural in your mind.

Weeks and months of pregnancy are NOT calculated from date of intercourse ( or date of conception ) but from the date of last menstrual period.

Also, if you count from the 11th of May, assuming her last date of period, then you can see that EXACTLY 12 weeks are completed on the 3rd of August.

So the doctors are right in saying that in the end of July, three months are completed.

So, in all possibility, it is your baby, conceived from the sexual intercourse on 25th of May.

I hope you understand what I explained.
Please feel free to ask any further follow up questions.

Regards

Hello,
As i already said, if the pregnancy had resulted from the sexual encounter on 25th of may, then 3 months have been completed.

if her period was on 27th of April, then the pregnancy is now in fact even more advanced, 3 and a half months.

I would request you to scan and upload her ultrasound scan report, so that I can give a more precise answer.

Also , if her periods were regular, then she should have had her period on 25th of May ( as last period was on 27th april ), so that means she had irregular cycles , also intercourse just before periods is less likely to result in pregnancy.

So, if she had sex ( other than with you ) after her last period on 27th April, then too this pregnancy could have resulted from that, and even if she conceived on 25th may, then too the pregnancy is 3 months by the end of July.
An exact ultrasound in weeks, will pinpoint the period of conception even better.

Sry for asking same question but mam i want to clear everything so that my confusion clear and we can live whole lifecwithout tension...sry mam..but please explain all things and clear my confusion...i am highly obliged to you..


If the ultrasound on 3rd August showed 11 wks and 4 days, then yes, she most probably conceived on 25th May only.

Days of pregnancy are counted from the date of the last period, and not from the day of intercourse. So yes, it is correct that if you had intercourse on 25th of May and she conceived then, that 3 months will be completed by 3rd of August.

Just immediately after periods ( 3 - 4 days ) and 3 - 4 days before periods, generally are safe days, but ovulation is unpredictable, so there is no guarantee that pregnancy will not result from intercourse during these days.

If you had intercourse on 25th of may, and ultrasound shows 11wk4d on 3rd of August, then chances are very high that the baby is yours, unless she had sex with somebody else on days very close to 25th of April.

As the pregnancy is counted from date of last period, not from the day of intercourse, the counting is from before 25th may, so it is possible and natural that pregnancy is 3 months on 3rd of august.

I understand your anxiety and concern, and i do not mind if you ask me repeatedly the same question, but the answer too would be the same.
take care.
