Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Dating sono: A first trimester dating sono should confirm your due date by LMP within a week. Not everyone ovulates on day 14.

No: You ovulate 14 days before your period. If you have a 25 day cycle it is on day 11, a 30 day cycle would be on day 16, a 28 day cycle would be day 14.
