If 15 Dec is your first day of your last menstrual period then doc will count from that date. So as of last week (between 19-25 Apr) you’re probably about 18 weeks pregnant give or take. Science says you are actually “2 weeks pregnant” before conception. Watch YouTube videos and you’ll understand.

Sometimes we just don’t need to question ourselves too much, ultrasound can determine the age of our fetus. Take care!
