Many pregnant women always look forward to seeing their baby soon after learning that they have a baby, but they don't know when it will be? In fact, this time can be calculated, which is commonly referred to as the due date. So if you get pregnant at the end of February, when can you give birth?
Firstly, expectant mothers must carefully recall the last time they had their menstrual cycle. If the cycle is normal, a month minus 3 or plus 9 is the due date, and the date plus 7. For example, if the last menstrual period was on February 30th, then the due date is November 7th. But if you really can't remember the specific time, you can judge your early pregnancy reactions, such as anorexia, fatigue, food selection, nausea, vomiting, etc., to calculate. The time when early pregnancy symptoms occur is generally around one and a half months of pregnancy, and the due date is the day of morning sickness plus 250 days. In addition, it can also be calculated from fetal movement, feeling that the fetus is moving inside the body. At the beginning, I feel fetal movement, usually around 19-20 weeks of pregnancy, so adding 4 months and 20 days is the due date.
However, experienced mothers who have been pregnant often perceive the fetus to occur around 17 or 18 weeks, so adding 22 weeks (5 months and 4 days) is the due date. The timing of fetal movement is different for everyone, so this algorithm is not precise. If the pregnant mother can seek medical attention in a timely manner, the doctor will calculate the gestational age through professional examination, and the date when the pregnancy reaches 40 weeks is the due date.
Although the due date can be calculated, babies may not necessarily be born on that day. It is normal for babies to be born a few days earlier or later.
