Don't sweat...: Don't sweat the small stuff, as the saying goes. In a normal couple with a natural pregnancy, none of this matters (don't overthink it). Reasons: it is unknown the exact day of ovulation (when egg pops out of ovary), it is impossible to know exactly when conception is (when egg meets sperm), Aug 18 and 21 are the "same day," and ok to start counting a pregnancy 2 weeks before estimated conception.
