[quote=Anonymous]Yeah, providing the LMP by subtracting 14d from my retrieval date is probably the right thing to do...but it just frustrates me how clueless everyone is about calculating IVF due dates.  It's really pretty straightforward...especially since ER date is the same as conception date, which is a reasonably standard way to calculate due date.  I guess it's related to the ridiculousness of calculating due dates by assuming every woman ovulates on day 14 during their regular cycle.

After ART (five cycles of IVF), I feel like I know so much about my fertility...most of which isn't all that hard to understand.  I'm just astonished at how clueless regular OB practices are about pretty basic stuff about women's reproductive systems...you don't need to know much about ART to understand that whether it happend in a lab or in your body, the day sperm joins the egg is the conception date.  I think my frustration is that after finding a great and knowledgable RE, I really don't feel like I can find an OB practice where I trust the doctors to really understand what they're doing.[/quote]
