How To Determine The Date Of Conception?

Posted on Fri, 3 Jul 2015

Question: If my wife is 24-23 weeks pregnant today. Can someone please tell me around where that puts the conception date in January?

Answered by Dr. Dr. Rakhi Tayal (18 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
Around 14th January.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
If your wife is 24 weeks pregnant today then she conceived around 22 weeks ago. This comes near 14th January. This date depends on the accuracy of the ultrasound scan that she did earlier in her pregnancy for pregnancy dating.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
