What Does Your Due Date Mean?

When you go to a doctor and they confirm that you are pregnant, one of the first things they will do is to ask you some questions and then give you a due date.

This date may change when you have an ultrasound, but most doctors are excellent at giving you the right date if you are a woman that has regular periods of which you have kept track.

Your due date can tell you many things and will be on your mind the entire time you are pregnant. But does it really mean?

Your due date tells you when your baby will be full term and delivered. However, this date is not usually the day your baby arrives. Most women do not deliver right on their due date!

If you go far beyond your delivery date, you may be induced.

If you give birth early, your intended date of birth can tell the doctors and nurses a lot about the health and development of your premature baby.

For the most part, the development is right on track with what is expected.

Your due date is calculated by the first day of your last period. When you are eight weeks pregnant, you have actually only been pregnant for six, as this type of calculation goes by the two weeks before you ovulated as well.

Using An Ovulation Calendar To Get The Due Date

If you have irregular periods or if your cycles are not 28 days long, your date could be off. Be sure to tell your doctor so that they figure that into their calculation.

When you get an ultrasound, they will measure the size of the baby to give you a more definite (and usually very close) date.

Your due date can be used to let you know what is going on in your body. Much study has been done on in utero development, which means you know exactly what is going on with your baby that week.

You will know when they are going to develop hearing, or when they have the lung capacity to survive if they are born early.

You will also know when you can expect morning sickness to end (though not exact for all women) and even when your baby can be born full term, even when the due date has not been reached.

Use your due date as a guideline for when baby should arrive, but do not bank on it!

Preparing For Your Baby

Have everything done weeks before your due date so that you are not caught unaware when labor begins. You can go as early as two weeks before your due date in many cases, without having to worry that your baby is under developed.

You may go over too, so don't call your doctor if you have not gone into labor on your date. They will tell you to give it more time! That's no fun when you are uncomfortable and wishing for pregnancy to be over, but it happens all the time.

Think of your expected date of delivery as a target, but also as an estimate. No one knows for sure what triggers labor, it just happens when the time is right!

Belly Laughs: The Naked Truth About Pregnancy

review: belly laughs: the naked truth about pregnancy and childbirth

This book takes a light hearted look at pregnancy and it was fun to read her frank and funny views on gas, the belly expanding, having strange dreams while pregnant and dealing with hemorrhoids.

Some of her other funny stories include weighing her breast and surrendering to the maternity bra. There were so many moments when I laughed out loud and had to look around to make sure no one was looking at me all strange.

The different changes the body go through. Crying for no reason due to hormonal changes. Skin changes, pregnant head, bad headaches and wanting to saw the head off. Premature labor. Hating skinny women.

This book is not meant to be a pregnancy guide, it's meant to take a light hearted comical look at going through the pregnancy experience.

I mean the book is after all called Belly Laughs. If you are expecting this book to have some new insight on pregnancy then you will be mistaken. If you have a great sense of humor you will find yourself enjoying this book a lot.

Fertility Monitor (Electronic Ovulation Calendar)

Pinpoint ovulation and increase your chances of becoming pregnant with a fertility monitor. The OvaCue is an advanced fertility monitor (an electronic ovulation calendar) that enables you to predict ovulation up to seven days in advance!

OvaCue Fertility Monitor

Easy to use, over 98% accurate and unlike other urine-based ovulation tests, mess free. That's because the OvaCue uses saliva samples to measure changes in electrolyte concentration (salinity).

By detecting changes in electrolytes in saliva, which are caused by an increase of the hormone estrogen, OvaCue can predict when you will ovulate - the best time for you to conceive your baby.

review: ovacue fertility monitor (health and beauty)

My wife and I decided to get this product because she has problems tolerating different types of contraceptive pills. None of the other contraceptive methods seemed adequate for us, so we decided to investigate further into the OvaCue as a contraceptive tool.

It is not approved by the FDA as a contraceptive method, but, and this is a big BUT, it was designed to pinpoint your exact ovulation day, so if you know that with an extremely high accuracy, then you know when NOT to have sex, using natural family planning methods.

The only thing I've noticed is that if you're not regular, it will still work for you, but it might confuse you. You have to manually put in your average cycle length, so it will first calculate your ovulation day with this info.

But, when it first reads the 'CUE', then it automatically adjusts the ovulation day. And if your current cycle is longer then the average cycle length, then you'll have more days of no unprotected sex. Other than that, it has worked like a charm!
