Due date help?!?! (Long)

dana316 · January 2011

It is really, really bugging me not to know how far along I am in this pregnancy...not knowing a due date is bothering me. I am SUCH a need-to-know kind of girl...and not knowing drives me nuts.

So, here's the details...tell me what you think.

The first day of my LMP was Dec 13th. I got my BFP on CD 46 (January 27th). The next day, my beta was 230.

I didn't get my first PP AF until 9 months...then had a 70 day cycle, then a 40 day cycle, then the 46 day cycle that led to this BFP...so obviously, I'm clueless as to when I ovulated.

The cycle I got pregnant with Caroline, I ovulated on CD 16, had my IUI on Cd17 and my 7dpo progesterone was only 10.something, so it being a medicated cycle, we figured I didn't ovulate and started planning for the next cycle. I got a BFP with her on 18dpiui and my beta that same day was 445.

So, with this being an unmedicated cycle, and me not having a clue when I ovulated...am I going to have to wait till my ultrasound to have some sort of idea of how far along I am/my due date? Or can we make some sort of educated guess based on the information above??

I'm having another beta tomorrow, but no ultrasound planned just yet. My OB won't do one until my beta is 2500, so its going to be awhile...but I need at least some sort of educated guess...and you girls are the experts...so what do you think??

Wow...it really could be anywhere in a decently big range... But if those were my numbers, I'd be inclined to think that the beta was at 15-16 dpo

it's so hard to be patient!

Apparently, you have sex often enough for that not be a deciding factor? Wink

Lucky girl! lol I'd say betabase.info puts 230 right around 16-17dpo. I'd guess based off that, but be prepared for it to change! So if you were 16dpo on Jan 28, you probably O'ed on Jan 12, which puts your due date at 10/5. Yay!

With DS my beta at 15dpo was 200. With DD, my beta at around the same time was also low 200's. So my guess for you is that your beta was about 14 to 16 DPO and you are due around Oct. 5-7th ish. Right now you are between 4 wks 2 days and 4 wks 4 days...

So exciting!!
