midwife & ovulation day

[callmedan]

Im going to make a midwife appointment next week and about 6 & a half weeks
This month I didnt ovulate till CD24 so shall i tell the midwife my AF started 10 days after it actually did as I know they work out your due date from the first day of your last AF and i dont want my date to be 10 days behind what it should!
thanks!xx

No tell your midwife you certain of conception dates

Some will take into consideration if you know when you ovulated, some dont.

I personally probably would go ahead and fib on my LMP because my luck I would get one that didnt care lol

I fibbed but then during the appointment because I know my midwife I told her the truth, and she still checked my uterus to see if it fit more or less with my dates. I'd fib...

Yay, congrats callmedan!

The hospital I'm going to doesn't care and is going off LMP right now. It's only a 4 day difference, so I'm not too worried. Baby measured more closely to LMP at the scan I had on Friday anyway.

You might get a dating scan as well.

I have long cycles and late ovulation but in my experience they go off your LMP regardless of what you say!

If your dates differ by more than 7 days you should be getting a dating scan.

I was always honest and said I had long cycles, and had dating scans.

They didn't pay any attention to me when I said I had long cycles and knew my dates. Then I had my dating scan and he said it agreed with my LMP but I knew it had to be a week out so I paid to do a private scan and it agreed with my dates. I was worried about it because they don't like to let you go more than a week over here and that means I'd be under pressure for induction before I was even due.
