Due date calculator

Hi all,

Hope everyone's coping with this freak weather today! Can anybody share some light on how to calculator due date after IVF- frozen 5 day transfer? My transfer was on the 7th of July and Google tells me due date is 25th March.My gyno said 30th. She said I can have a 6wk scan on around the 5th August. I calculated 30th July. Is she confused or have I lost the plot already?

I was the same.... Some ladies explained it on my post

healthunlocked.com/fertilit...

Have a look they also suggest a website you can check current due date etc x

So I assume EC was 2nd July? 6 weeks pregnant will be 30th July. Due date will be 25th March (38 weeks from EC). Your gynae has the dates wrong (easily done - a nurse at my clinic told me the wrong dates until I pointed it out, then they agreed it was a mistake). xx

Ok, well TBH given the 5d transfer was 7th July it won’t make a difference to dates-effectively your EC was 2nd Jul and period 2w before that. Still think the gynae is wrong 😉 xx

We are exactly the same !! I had transfer 7th & my date shows 25th March too ! I am having an early scan at 5weeks 5days (28th July) have you had your bloods done yet ? I went to the EPU as my official test date isn’t until Wednesday & I was panicking with my history

I'm abroad so I wanted to get my bloods done before I flew home. Had it today and it came in at 1023.09! Gyno laughed and said it might be twins. I had 3 embryos put in. Last of my frozen bunch. Sorry to hear your history has been rocky-same here Hope it all works out for us both. You've officially reassured me, so I think I'll be booking my early scan for the 30th, not later like gyno recommended. I'm a nervous wreck. God help my hubby!x

Oh wow you definitely have twins on the way that number is highhhh ! I had mine done yesterday (10dp) was 350 & I thought that was a good number. Thank you I hope so too, keep me updated 😊 my birthday is 28th July too so it will be amazing if I can see things moving in the right direction. Yes I am the same it’s all I am talking about it’s annoying my fella I can tell he is trying to be patient with me haha xx

Yeah 25th of March is the correct one- they shouldn’t be using your last period for IVF they have the exact dates of transfer etc. I mean due date could change at 12 week scan but at this stage it’s defo 25th I f March if it was a 5 day transfer on July 7th. Congrats! Xx

So if your transfer was 7th July, and 5 days old you got back 6 days to day 0 - 2nd July. Then exactly 14 days before is the start of f your “period” - 18th June. This is the date you use for the any due date calculator on the internet. So yes I work it out to be 25th March. She might have got it wrong… the nurse/midwife I first saw (not from the fertility clinic got it wrong and they asked me to get the date from the fertility clinic)

It’s so confusing with ivf ! If you Google ivf due date calculator there’s a few good websites that will allow you to put in when your transfer was and it will work it out from that. I must admit, with both of my babies I was given 3 different dates (had to have a few early scans) but once I transferred onto the nhs scans they gave me their own date based on what the baby measured at 12 weeks. Both came 2 weeks early 🤣 xx

We should just do like France and not have due dates just due 2 weeks because it’s not an exact science. So I guess your consultant is probably correct.
