A doctor has provided 1 answer

The day you had sex is not always the day you conceived, because sperm can live for several days inside you. The best way to date a pregnancy is by a transvaginal ultrasound. But, if you conceived 6 weeks ago, your pregnancy would be considered 8 weeks along, since by convention, we use "menstrual age" for pregnancy dating (we usually ovulate and conceive 14 days after the first day of a period)
