Does it give you an estimated due date? It's a lot simpler to just put the e.d.d. into a conception calculator and see what it gives you for an estimated conception date, than to try to puzzle out GA(AUA) and the like, especially once you're at your 24th or 25th week. Babies grow at different rates, and nobody should use a 24th-week ultrasound to try to decide anything about conception.

There is also at bottom of ultrasound showing
27w1 day for AC(Hadlock) what is that!!?? When I put that on pregnancy calculator shows I conceived June 29th!!! Is there a way to send you a photo of this ?
I believe Hadlock relates to the estimated fetal weight. It doesn't "show you conceived June 29," it gives a GA, which is a rough estimate of when your last period might have come.

But you don't in fact even need that information, because you said your last period was July 3.

Plus, measurements of the baby at this stage of pregnancy are too far along to determine accurately by ultrasound when your baby was conceived. You need to use the earliest estimated due date that you got from the earliest ultrasound you had, and even that one won't be very helpful unless it's in the first trimester.

Plus, you had a DNA test, which named the guy you want as the dad. Then, after getting this good news, you phoned the lab for reassurance, and they made a mistake telling it to you over the phone, and then, you stopped listening to any subsequent information or explanations.

Plus, you say you have anxiety issues. This isn't too surprising, since every explanation anyone has given to you, you've come back and said you don't believe.

I don't think there is anything else I or anyone on this site can do to make your anxiety over this go away. Probably the best idea is to see your therapist and try to understand what you're doing to yourself and why.

Your dates and the estimated due date from your early ultrasounds suggest you did NOT conceive in June. MedHelp can't take you any further, so I'm going to sign off.
