Hence conception occurs approximately 14 to 16 days after the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP) • Pregnancy is often broken down into weeks and 40 weeks is considered to be full term pregnancy. • Any baby delivered in less than 37 weeks of pregnancy is considered to be premature. • Fertilization is counted to have occurred around the 14th day of the 28 day cycle of menstruation.
