Question:Trying to Concieve

My husband and I are trying to concieve. I am one week late and I took a pregnancy test it came out negative both times. We were intimate in the meant time. If I become pregnant would my month of concieving be August? My last menstral period was in July.

    July. As Ambsies says, your conception and due dates would be calculated based on your LMP. You essentially get 2 "free" weeks in the calculation, because you typically ovulate around 2 weeks (more or less) after your LMP.

    i have always thought it was from the date of your last period when calculating your pregnancy but  based on when you ovulated you could have very well conceived in august

    Yes, everyone is correct.  Week 1 (of 40 weeks) starts when you start your last period.  You are not techinically pregnant at this point.  How confusing!

    For future reference, I would strongly encourage reading, "Taking charge of your fertility" and subscribing to fertilityfriend.com - which you can link to by clicking on my horse link.  This will help you keep track of your cycles and be mor eintune with your body.

    Good luck.
