    Question Have you charted, got pregnant, but had conception date wrong?

    Have been looking at lunar fertility and apparently it's 'common' for people to get pregnant in their lunar fertile time. So I was wondering if we could see if this has happened to people. I've heard some ppl say they were sure of the conception date b/c they were charting only for the Dr to tell them that they weren't as far / or they were further along than they thought. Maybe lunar fertility could explain this?
    So if this has happened to you we can work out from your birthdate, time, and place when your lunar fertile time is to see if this may have been the reason and look for some evidence that this might work. It would be great if there was more than 1 time a month we could have a chance of conceiving! But I don't know how much I can believe from other websites so thought I'd see if it's worked for anyone on BB.

    I don't know anything about lunar feritlity, but I think that ofetn when a doctor changes your dates even though you're sure of your ovulation date it has more to do with the length of your cycle and the saize of the baby at your 12 week u/s. More often than not it's only a few days they change dates by and it's really all a bit of guesswork I think.

    Anyway - good luck with your theory, I hope you get some responses you can look into.

    Thanks for replying Dee.
    Yeah, I've just heard some ppl say they were 1-2 weeks further along than they thought, which is a bit of a difference!!

    ETA- oh yeah, it's not my theory! lol, don't want to be taking credit for it. They've done research on it and stuff.

    dates wrong

    according to my LMP I'm due 27 May, but my cycle is 39 days long, I also know when I ovulated, and I had a egg implant bleed on the 20 September, so then my due date was 7 June. Now due to the 20 week scan, bubs is 1 week 2 days ahead, so I am back to being due 29 May. Which would mean it took 24 days for the egg to get to my uterus. Go figure.
