have'nt posted here since the last time I was blazed for asking a simple question well my question I went for my first ob app. dr. asked me when was the first day of my last mens. which was nov 27 2009 he says I'm 5 weeks pg but every time I use the due date calculator online  its giving me different due dates dr. says sept. 3rd  online says aug.14th and that I'm 9 weeks I've used 6 different websites all give me the same due date , do you think maybe when the nurse asked me she heard wrong?
I keep trying to lose weight... but it keeps finding me!

In Taking Charge of Your Fertility they say to add nine months- If the 1st day of your last cycle was November 27, then that would be August 27th. You then add seven days to that calculation for your due date- That would be Sept 3rd. I've always used this calculation and it's been right- always matched what the Dr. said. August 14th would be too soon- Maybe they are giiving you a 36 week estimate, since sometimes babies are considered full term at 37 weeks? Sept. 3rd is the date though.

I get september 3 when I check too.  I checked to verify if my due date was correct then used yours. 

Technically if sept 3rd is correct you would be 7 weeks pg, but the baby is 5 weeks.  The first two weeks of pg you are not pg yet. 

Will you be getting a dating ultrasound soon?

well I have an app. with a perinatal specialist feb 22 since I'v lost 7 in the past, I was told to expect to be there for 2 to 3 hrs so I  really don't know what kind of tests they will do when I'm there.

Congrats!   Sorry about the response you got the first time you posted here.  That was totally uncalled for.    All of us have concerns about gaining weight!    Sorry about your losses.  I hope you have a very happy and healthy nine months!

I agree with the others. Sometimes online calculators can be tricky because it will also take into account a 28 day cyle, 30 day cycle, etc
Hopefully, you will get an ultrasound soon and then they can do a better job of estimating how far along you are and your estimated due date. Usually, your due date can be plus or minus a week as well and then it is up to the baby when he/she comes anyhow...mine was early...go figure. Good Luck!
