We are planning the zodiac sign of the unborn child. What is the best month to conceive a child?

Almost every pregnant woman is very interested in when her baby will be born.

There is no exact method for determining the day of birth.

But there are quite a lot of methods that allow you to calculate the estimated date of birth (EDD).

How to use these methods, and which one is the most accurate? More on this later!

Determining the date of birth based on the date of conception

Based on the date of conception, you can determine the approximate birthday of the baby. It is known that conception of a child can only occur during the period of ovulation, i.e. at the time when the finished egg leaves the follicle and goes to meet the sperm. As a rule, ovulation occurs on the 14th day of the menstrual cycle. The menstrual cycle should be understood as the period of time from 1 day of menstruation to 1 day of the next. The duration of this cycle is individual for each woman. On average it is 27-29 days, but can stretch up to 35 days or even more..

Women who carefully monitor their menstrual cycle and plan a pregnancy are usually able to determine their ovulation day.

Knowing the date of ovulation, you need to add 280 days to it

(which is how long pregnancy lasts on average for women). You can find out the expected date of birth of a child using this method only if you have a permanent menstrual cycle. You need to know the day it starts. To determine the approximate date of birth of a child count forward 280 days from the first day of your last period

(average duration of pregnancy). According to statistics, no more than 5% of children are born on the “calculated” day. About 85% of babies are born with a deviation of 5-7 days from the calculated MPD, and the remaining babies are “in a hurry” or “late” for another week. According to medical standards

normal duration pregnancy is 38-42 weeks, and not strictly 40 weeks, as many people mistakenly believe for some reason..

At the same time, the duration of pregnancy can be influenced by a variety of factors, including the individual speed of development of the child and the duration of the menstrual cycle

expectant mother

For example, if the cycle lasts up to 24 days, the baby may be born 1-2 weeks earlier than the due date calculated using the formula mentioned above. If the duration of the menstrual cycle exceeds 32 days, the child may be “late” for the same 1-2 weeks, but such a “delay” will not be considered postmaturity. How to calculate the due date using ultrasound

Currently, the method of calculating the date of birth using ultrasound is the most reliable.

You just need to pay attention to the period of pregnancy during which the study is performed.

For example, if an ultrasound is performed at 11-14 weeks of pregnancy, the expected date of birth can be determined with an error of 1-3 days.

In the first trimester of pregnancy, embryos practically do not differ in size. During the second trimester, differences in the weight and height of the fetus can be quite significant, and in the third trimester they become even more pronounced. Therefore, during the 2nd and 3rd trimester, it is unlikely that it will be possible to find out at least the expected date of birth using ultrasound.

At the first move At a time when medicine did not yet have the means to conduct ultrasound examinations, the most reliable way to determine the expected date of birth was the method of determining the baby’s first movement. Doctors today ask pregnant patients about the date of the baby’s first movement and note this information in the exchange card, but this

important this day is no longer given importance. But no one is stopping you from trying. According to this method, women who are pregnant for the first time most often feel fetal movement at the 20th week of pregnancy. Hence,

In the second and subsequent pregnancies, the first movements may appear as early as the 18th week. To determine the expected date of birth in such a situation, you need to add 22 weeks to the day of the first movement.

This method can hardly be called the most accurate. In view of individual characteristics physiology, some pregnant women feel fetal movement earlier than the specified dates. Besides this, many modern mothers lead an active lifestyle, against the background of which the moment of the first movement may simply not be noticed.

If a woman is forced to adhere to bed rest for medical reasons, she will probably feel the fetus moving. Moreover, the first movements can be noticed by such women even before the 18th or 20th week.

Based on the results of a gynecological examination

During gynecological examination the specialist notes the degree of uterine enlargement. In accordance with this indicator, you can quite accurately determine the approximate day of birth. The uterus increases in size along with the fetus, which is why an experienced specialist in most situations can calculate without any problems approximate date childbirth

Based on the size of the uterus during the first trimester of pregnancy, the doctor can find out the duration of pregnancy and thereby calculate the approximate date of birth, using the approximate day of the last menstrual period in the calculations.

In the 2nd and 3rd trimesters, set the date of birth based on the results gynecological examination very difficult, because at different women the size of the uterus changes with different intensity. In view of this, this method is considered ineffective on later pregnancy and therefore not used.

According to the results of obstetric examination

In the second half of pregnancy (usually starting from the 20-21st week) during each gynecological examination doctor measures pregnant woman and the height of the fundus of her uterus. Thanks to these measurements, the specialist has the opportunity to monitor the progress of pregnancy and timely determine the presence of any kind of deviations from the norm. Also, thanks to this information, the doctor can approximately calculate the due date.

However, you cannot completely trust this method either, because... the accuracy of the readings obtained as a result of an obstetric examination may depend both on the individual characteristics of the pregnant woman’s body and on the accuracy of the doctor.

Which method is the most effective?

The most effective method for determining the expected date of birth is ultrasound. Also, the method of counting from the date of the last menstruation shows relatively high accuracy.

It is very good if the results of calculations using these two methods coincide - then the chances of the baby being born on the expected day will also increase.

But if the dates do not coincide, there is no need to be upset. Carefully monitor the course of your pregnancy and undergo regular examinations. Remember: each of the methods discussed allows you to determine only the approximate date of birth.

Why are the results for determining the due date only approximate?

In reality, it is almost impossible to determine the exact birthday of a child. Only a few women manage to give birth exactly on the day specified by the doctor or on their own. Most often, pregnancy lasts 280 days (40 weeks), but often mothers give birth at 38 weeks or even earlier, and in many situations this is considered normal. Moreover, if a woman is pregnant with more than one child at once, then, in most cases, she will begin giving birth earlier than the date set by the gynecologist. It is important to understand that the baby may be born 1-2 weeks later set date

– in most situations this is not considered a deviation.

That is, a deviation from the “standard” 40 weeks by 1-2 weeks forward or backward is not considered something abnormal. It is also important to understand that the duration of pregnancy and the approximate day of birth can be influenced by a variety of factors. So, for example, to premature birth

can lead to various diseases and complications.

Thus, in the absence of complications, the child is born only fully mature and ready for life outside the mother's womb. It is almost impossible to accurately calculate the due date. But the above methods, as well as our online birth date calculator, will help you determine the expected or approximate date of birth.

Health to you and your baby! Pregnancy is one of the most exciting and at the same time responsible periods in the life of every woman, and therefore it is not at all surprising that each of us wants to know the date of birth as soon as possible. However, this issue often causes numerous disagreements and disputes. Expectant mothers “torture” doctors with their questions, because they want to prepare for important event

The estimated date of birth (EDD) is calculated in several ways, each of which is approximate. That is, if according to calculations the baby should be born on January 1, then it is not a fact that this will happen with one hundred percent accuracy on this very day. Very often there are deviations from the expected date in one direction or another. And labor can begin either 2 weeks earlier or later. I bring to your attention a fairly simple, but very effective way to find out probable date birth of a child, which has been successfully used by many doctors in clinics for quite a long time.

Calculation based on the last day of menstruation

So, to independently calculate gestational age and using it to determine the expected day of birth, you need to remember the start date of the last menstruation. It is on this basis that all calculations are made. From this date you need to subtract 3 months and add another 7 days to the result.
The resulting number will be the expected due date of your long-awaited baby.
For example, the date of the last menstruation is April 22. This means that 3 months must be subtracted from this date.

We take away and receive - January 22. We add another 7 days to this figure and get January 29 - this day will be the expected date of birth.

• It is worth noting that this method of calculation is best suited for women with a regular menstrual cycle, which lasts 28 days. 4 Alternative Ways to Calculate Due Date 1. You can find out the due date with fairly high accuracy by visiting a gynecologist’s office. The doctor will not prescribe any tests for this, he will simply measure
• 2. You can calculate the date of birth based on ovulation, which is the most favorable period during which conception most likely occurs. On such days, a woman usually experiences increased sexual attraction. In addition, her discharge (cervical fluid) becomes stickier and thicker, basal body temperature rises by several tenths of a degree, the cervix rises, and the mammary glands become dense and painful.

So, to find out when your baby will be born based on ovulation, you need to add 280 days to this day (the duration of pregnancy). The resulting period will be the date of birth. If the period in which ovulation occurred is unknown, then calculate the middle of the last menstrual cycle, and then add the rest to it.
In the same way, you can perform calculations based on the date of conception. However, you should be aware that this period does not always coincide with the day on which sexual intercourse occurred. Fertilization of the egg, as a rule, occurs only on the third day.

• 3. Hardware computing using ultrasonic waves can also be considered one of the most effective methods, which allow you to determine the due date with an accuracy of 1-3 days. The most accurate calculations will be if an ultrasound is done during the 11-14 weeks of pregnancy.
• 4. He will help you declassify the secret of your child’s birth date. first movement, which usually occurs at the 20th week (in first-time mothers) and at the 18th week during the second and subsequent pregnancies. In ancient times, when there was no ultrasound, this method of calculating the due date was almost the only one.

As soon as the expectant mother feels the first tangible tremors of her baby in her stomach, 20 weeks should be counted from that moment. The resulting date will be the probable day of birth of the child. If the birth is not the first, movements are usually felt earlier - at 18 weeks, so you will have to add not 20, but 22 weeks to this period.

The effectiveness of hardware methods in calculating the due date

Examination of the fetus in the third trimester using an ultrasound machine makes it possible to accurately determine the date of pregnancy, and therefore the expected due date. The point is that only with the help ultrasound diagnostics the doctor can observe condition of the placenta, position of the baby’s head in relation to the entrance to the pelvis, opening level cervix, signs of fetal maturity, as well as many other important factors. All these parameters are decisive in determining the readiness of the unborn baby and his mother for childbirth.

Is deviation from the deadline normal?

As mentioned above, all calculations of the expected due date are nothing more than a rough guideline that should not be relied heavily on. According to statistics, only 17% of women give birth on the appointed day, while the remaining 83% give birth either earlier or later. Thus, we can conclude that no specialist, no matter how smart and qualified he may be, can predict with high accuracy the date of onset of labor.
Normally, birth can occur between 38 and 42 weeks. pregnancy. The birth of a child will be neither premature nor late, but normal and physiological. Sometimes for certain reasons labor activity may start prematurely. This happens due to abnormalities in fetal development, stressful situations, various
pathological processes

, occurring in the mother’s body, hereditary factors, etc.

Pregnancy often goes beyond that due to complications in the first trimester. In addition, maternal inheritance should be taken into account. If your mother and grandmother gave birth much later than the due date, then most likely the same thing awaits you. Therefore, it is very important to realize that calculating the due date is a very complex, conditional and individual issue for each expectant mother. How do the characteristics of the menstrual cycle affect the date of birth? The duration of a woman's menstrual cycle also influences the due date. For example, if it exceeds the standard twenty-eight days, then most likely the pregnancy will last more than forty weeks, and vice versa. However, in

in this case The deviation in one direction or another usually does not exceed 5 days. It is worth noting that in such calculations errors are often made, since very often normal bleeding that opens after fertilization of the egg is mistaken for menstruation. This time we will talk about pregnancy, the beginning of which - January - coincides with the beginning of the year. This is a time of fun and, probably, loved by everyone without exception. New Year's holidays. Despite the depths of winter, it becomes easier to endure severe cold and bad weather - after all, the

The first trimester of pregnancy (usually from the 5th to the 12th week) is often (in 50-60% of women) marred by such an unpleasant condition as early gestosis 1, or, as it was called before, toxicosis (it was believed that ovum releases certain toxins, which cause all the unpleasant manifestations, but, despite persistent searches, these toxins were never discovered). Preeclampsia is a more appropriate name; it emphasizes that this condition occurs only during pregnancy.

To date, there is no unified theory of the development of gestosis. By modern representation a certain role in this process is played by the insufficiency of adaptation mechanisms in the female body, disturbances in the regulation of internal organs by nervous system, immunological incompatibility mother and fetus and other factors. Among the manifestations early gestosis we will note nausea (usually in the morning), vomiting, drooling (and also in very in rare cases- dermatosis, manifested skin itching, eczema, and benign jaundice of pregnancy).

You should not assume that these troubles are a natural part of the first trimester of pregnancy. Constant attacks of nausea, and even more so vomiting that bothers you, should be a reason to consult a doctor. Let's say right away: only in 10% of cases you will need medical intervention and serious treatment. This is necessary for severe gestosis with uncontrollable vomiting, sharp decline weight, dehydration. In mild and moderate cases, they try to resort to non-medicinal treatment methods, such as herbal medicine, aromatherapy, acupuncture, physiotherapy, and psychotherapy.

Try to alleviate your condition using the following simple recommendations.

Your food should be as varied as possible, consist mainly of easily digestible foods and contain a large number of vitamins You must ensure that you drink enough liquid (1.5 - 2 liters, it is advisable to include alkaline mineral water). You need to have breakfast without getting out of bed. It’s better to give up three meals a day and split your daily ration for 6-8 small meals, which need to be separated from drinks. Frequent chewing helps with nausea (salted nuts, crackers, dried fruits, etc. are suitable). If you are drooling, it is good to rinse your mouth with infusions of chamomile, sage, and mint.

We sincerely hope that the troubles associated with the first months of pregnancy will not prevent you from following a clear plan of necessary activities presented in our traditional table.

1 There are early and late gestosis. You can read more about the latter in No. 8/2002.

2 Details legal side The issue is covered in No. 1/2001 in the article by O. Revenko “Benefits and rights of pregnant women and mothers in Russian legislation.”

The question “who will be born a boy or a girl?” always arises among parents. Although there are a large number various signs definitions and accepts, not everyone believes in them.

• Preference for dairy products;
• During pregnancy, a woman looks much better than usual;
• Frequent headaches;
• Suspended wedding ring on a thread, above the stomach, begins to spin;

• The left breast is slightly larger than the right;
• In the first trimester, morning sickness is a concern;
• Hair takes on a reddish tint;
• The mood is changeable, sometimes moody, but often bad;
• The skin is dry and tight.

It is very difficult to wait for the results of the most accurate existing methods gender determination - ultrasound examination, and very often the baby hides, leaving no way to determine its gender. There are also cases when the ultrasound showed a boy, but a girl was born, or vice versa. Therefore, curious adults use various fortune telling, omens and other old traditional methods determining the sex of the baby, various fortune-telling systems.

First, let's look at the most reliable (from a scientific point of view) methods for determining the sex of a future child.

Ultrasound examination (ultrasound)

Today it can reasonably be considered the most popular and reliable method. Using a special device, an image of the baby is displayed on the screen, by looking at which an experienced doctor, starting from the 12th week, can guess who the future parents should expect - a boy or a girl.

However, this method also has disadvantages. Often the baby hides and it is impossible to know whether it is a boy or a girl.

Determining the sex of a child by ovulation.

If it is not possible to determine the sex of the baby by ultrasound, some doctors advise expectant mothers to use the method of determining the sex of the child by ovulation. Its essence is that when planning the gender of the unborn baby, a woman should be attentive to her cycle. There is a theory according to which one can trace the relationship between who is born more - boys or girls - during a woman’s ovulation. Statistics show that among boys born, most of them were conceived exactly on the day of ovulation or some time after it. Accordingly, if conception occurred before ovulation, then the likelihood of a girl is greater.

How can we explain why more boys are born than girls on this day? The fact is that male sperm are responsible for the sex of the child, which are divided into two types:

• XX set of chromosomes (when combined with an egg, a female fetus is obtained);
• XY is a set of chromosomes (when combined with an egg, a male fetus is obtained).

The Y chromosomes move much faster and reach the egg, and also live in the acidic environment of the vagina for no more than 48 hours. And the X chromosomes are much slower, but more tenacious in an acidic environment. If a couple wants to conceive an heir, they should plan sexual intercourse directly on the day of ovulation or 2-3 days after it; it is advisable for the woman to experience an orgasm so that the acidity of the environment changes. When planning a baby, you should do the opposite.

To answer the question about the baby’s future sex using this method, you need to know exactly the day of your ovulation. If you have an irregular cycle or want to know this day 100%, you can purchase special tests at the pharmacy to determine ovulation. This method is scientifically based, however, it is not guaranteed to be correct; rather, it simply increases the chances of conceiving a child of the desired gender.

Determining the sex of a child using DNA analysis

Determined by identifying the X or Y chromosome when laboratory research maternal venous blood. A fairly expensive method (8-10 thousand rubles), but reliable. Its accuracy is 99%, taking into account that the gestational age is at least 7-8 weeks.

Amniocentesis and cordocentesis as methods of sex determination

These methods are intended to secondary determine the gender of the child, as they are intended mainly to identify any abnormalities in the child. The essence of amniocentesis is to take a puncture of the amniotic membrane to obtain amniotic fluid. Cordocentesis involves taking cord blood. As you can see, these methods are a direct and serious intervention in the body of a woman and child, therefore, making them out of simple curiosity not worth it.

Determining sex by parent's blood type

One of the ways to plan the sex of a baby is to analyze the dependence of the child’s sex on the blood type of the parents.

Pregnant women with blood group I are more likely to give birth to an heir from a man with II and IV, and a girl from I and III.

Women with blood group II can conceive a boy with a partner of group I and III, and a girl with group II and IV.

Owners Group III will give birth to a boy from a partner of any group except I.

Having group IV, there is a high probability of giving birth to a boy from a man of all groups except II.

There is also a relationship between the Rhesus of the parents. If parents have the same Rhesus, the likelihood of having a girl is higher. At different rhesus- boy.

Determination by Rh factor

Determining the sex of a child by heartbeat

One theory for determining sex is heart rate. The baby's heart begins to beat 20 days after conception. At almost every appointment with a gynecologist, a pregnant woman undergoes a procedure such as auscultation. The doctor uses a special tube or phonendoscope to listen and evaluate the fetal heartbeat. Many doctors have noticed that the heart rate of girls is 140-150 beats per minute, while in boys this figure is approximately 120 beats. The tone of the heartbeat of future daughters and sons also varies - in girls it is quieter and more muffled, in boys it is clear and loud. This difference is explained by the fact that men’s hearts are more powerful and resilient, contracting much more rhythmically and more clearly.

This method causes a lot of controversy among gynecologists, however, at a time when ultrasound did not yet exist, it was the most popular and effective.

Chinese table for determining the gender of a child

It should be taken into account that the Chinese consider the age of the mother differently from the Europeans. If the inhabitants of the planet count age from the moment of birth, then the Chinese count from the moment of conception. Residents of China believe that the most favorable age The month for conceiving a boy is July, and the mother's age must be 18, 20, 30, 42. Favorable month To conceive a girl it is April and the mother must be aged 21, 22, 29 years.

According to legend, this Chinese table was found in the tomb of the emperor, up to 700 years old. All indications are based on the period of conception and the age of the mother at that time. Although the data in the table coincides with the result by 90%, you should not rely on the results; there are always exceptions.
