1. What is FET Pregnancy Week Calculation?

The FET (Frozen Embryo Transfer) Pregnancy Week Calculation determines how many weeks pregnant you are following a frozen embryo transfer procedure. This calculation accounts for the additional time from embryo development prior to transfer.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the FET pregnancy dating formula:

\[ \text{Weeks Pregnant} = \left\lfloor \frac{\text{Current Date} - \text{FET Date}}{7} \right\rfloor + 2 \]

Where:

\( \text{FET Date} \) — Date of frozen embryo transfer
\( \text{Current Date} \) — Today's date or any date you want to check
\( \left\lfloor \frac{\text{Current Date} - \text{FET Date}}{7} \right\rfloor \) — Floor division gives complete weeks since transfer
\( + 2 \) — Accounts for the additional 2 weeks of embryonic development prior to transfer

Explanation: The calculation adds 2 weeks to account for the time from the last menstrual period to embryo development before the FET procedure.

3. Importance of FET Pregnancy Dating

Details: Accurate pregnancy dating is crucial for monitoring fetal development, scheduling prenatal appointments, and determining expected delivery dates. FET pregnancies require specific dating calculations different from natural conceptions.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter the exact date of your frozen embryo transfer and the current date (or any date you want to check). The calculator will automatically compute how many weeks pregnant you are based on standard FET dating conventions.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why add 2 weeks to the calculation?
A: The additional 2 weeks account for the time from the last menstrual period to embryo development before the frozen embryo transfer, following standard obstetric dating conventions.

Q2: Is this calculation accurate for all FET cycles?
A: This calculation follows standard medical guidelines for FET pregnancy dating. However, always consult with your healthcare provider for precise dating based on your specific medical situation.

Q3: What if my FET was a day 3 vs day 5 embryo?
A: This calculator assumes standard day 5 blastocyst transfer. For day 3 embryos, some providers may adjust the calculation by 2 additional days.

Q4: How does this compare to natural conception dating?
A: FET dating is more precise than natural conception dating since the exact transfer date is known, eliminating uncertainty about ovulation and conception timing.

Q5: When should I get my first ultrasound?
A: Most providers schedule the first ultrasound around 6-8 weeks of pregnancy (calculated using this method) to confirm viability and establish accurate dating.
