Patient's question:
Doctor, I would like to ask that my period arrived on December 28, 2017. I had sex with my ex-boyfriend on the 7th and then got married. However, my period came on January 29. On January 7, I took birth control pills, and my period skipped a day, so I went to the hospital and they prescribed me progesterone capsules. My period finally arrived on January 29. I met my current husband on February 5, and now my husband also had his period on February 27. But on March 27, my period didn't come. I want to ask if this baby has anything to do with my ex-boyfriend. I don't need to do a paternity test, but I'm very worried every day. But after getting married on January 7, I haven't seen him again. Is this the ultrasound report from when I got pregnant? Can you help me make a good guess? Thank you.I had a cesarean section surgery on November 28, 2018. I heard that if I got pregnant, it would be calculated from the last period as the due date, which would be February 27, 2018, right? Or should it be calculated from the day I had sex with my ex-boyfriend on January 7, 2018? Does it matter? But I calculated, and from February 27, 2018, to November 28, 2018, it's a total of 274 days? How many days does it take to get pregnant in total?
Doctor's answer:
According to your records, your last menstrual period was on 2018-2-27, and this has nothing to do with your ex-boyfriend. Your estimated due date is 2018-12-4, and it is normal to have a cesarean section six days early. In your case, this is a full-term delivery. Generally, a full-term delivery occurs between 37 weeks and 42 weeks (259-293 days) from the last menstrual period, which aligns with your last menstrual period and ultrasound results. There is no need to be too anxious. Sexual activity is strictly prohibited within the first half month after delivery, and a follow-up check is recommended after 42 days.
