I found a due date calculator online. (I’m so happy to talk about due dates and not refer to essays and projects.) Turns out, if you only know the first date of your last menstrual period and not the exact date conception happened, then the date it gives you is counting 40 weeks forward, guessing as to a range of possible ovulation dates and conception dates. That gave me the date of November 25, 2011 (this is the method Flip Flop Girl and I used, with the same result). BUT, if you know the exact conception date, it’s able to give you a better count, so that gives me the date of November 21, 2011 (this is the date the fertility nurse gave me on the phone yesterday). So November 21 it is!

The pregnancy calculator website also tells you where you are in your pregnancy. Today, it says:

Today is Thursday March 31st 2011.
You conceived on Monday February 28th 2011
and your due date is Monday November 21st 2011.

31 days have passed since the conception,
and you are 235 days before your due date.

You are 6 weeks into your pregnancy,
and you have 34 weeks to go.

You are in the 1st trimester.

12% of your pregnancy has passed, there is 88% left to go.

Cool, huh?
