Just for fun….can you guess the due date?

Just for fun….can you guess the due date?

  • Young adult stray female recently transferred from shelter to foster home.
  • The foster caregiver would like a due date estimate.
  • Can you guess the due date?  (I did 🙂 )
  • I’ll post the outcome on Friday.

OK- I’ll give it a shot.
Body

OK- I’ll give it a shot.

Body Diameter = about 3.75- 4.0 cm

Gestational Age = (3.75 x 7 + 29= 55 days) or ( 4 x 7 + 29= 57 days)

Days Before Parturition= 65-55= 10 days or 65-57= 8 days

So due date would be 8-10 days from the time of this ultrasound.

EL- did you calculate this or is that experience talking 🙂

Oops…sorry about that.  It

Oops…sorry about that.  It must be the double digit below zero weather slowing everything down.  So, in effect, it really is still Friday.

Ok, so 3 female and 3 male puppies were born……(drum roll please)…..

10 days after this sonogram was done.  So, cigars to all of us for getting the correct date, especially to EL who did not even give a range!

My reasoning was based on the following:

Fetal measurements showed the body diameter (BD)at the level of the stomach to be 3.1cm giving an estimated gestational age of 51 days (GA=(7x BD) + 29).1  The head diameter  (HD) obtained in transverse views was 2.5cm giving an estimated gestational age of 54 days (GA=(6 x HD)+(3 x BD) +30).  This gave an estimated count of 10 to 15 days until parturition (canine gestational period=65 days +/-1 day).
