    They typically base it on the first date of your last period. And then they confirm with an ultrasound. If you lie and say you don't know, they will do a dating scan. Otherwise they will go based on LMP and back it up with an ultrasound around 8-12 weeks. So based on your other post about short term disability, likely is they will realize you were pregnant before the policy went in to effect and you will be denied benefits. Your best bet is to be honest with your doctor and the insurance company. Fraud is no joke.

    Edited to add that early ultrasounds are VERY accurate. Especially ones before 8 weeks.

    How did your OB/GYN estimate your date of pregnancy? By looking at the sonogram? By asking you when your last period took place?

    Do you know if they estimated a particular date, or was there a window? How big was the window?

    The reason I'm asking has to do with applying for short-term disability insurance. Any help is appreciated.
