No more spotting!

[future mommy]

I think I have completely stopped spotting. I have not bled in over a week! I'm so excited. My next appointment is on Monday which will put me at 10 weeks!
I have a question, I am positive on the first day of my last AF. That puts me at 10 weeks, but my doctor has me 9 weeks 4 days on Monday if I follow his calculations. Who is right?

I'm happy you've stopped spotting! I bet you feel relieved
Its a scary thing, I went through spotting with this pregnancy for almost a month .

As for dates, I'd probably follow the doctors until you get a scan confirming your dates.

A scan is more accurate than your dates and his ... I knew when we had sex that ended in so I was only 1 day out of what I thought lol

Really glad the spotting has stopped Was sooooo relieved when mine stopped!

Well his dates were off of a scan. what they did was measure the baby and go on average age at that length? Well what if my baby is not average in size, maybe a little smaller for how far along I am? I am just so certain on my date even thought it is only 3 days apart. I don't think that I agree with everyones baby being an average size. What do you ladies think?

 

[Wobbles]

Ah I see ... 3 days later than you thought or earlier? If later its very possible as sperm stays alive for around 3 days I think - some say 5!

Ok read back he put you 3 days back from your thoughts ... Are you going on just your AF? If so going by AF gives a round about but not accurate date of conceiving x

Glad your spotting is all done! I know it made me really nervous whenever I saw blood!
