Is "conception date" more accurate a measure of age than "birth date"?

<p>My parents told me after I accused my sister of being a mistake. (She was born on Nov. 14 - i.e. 9 MONTHS EXACTLY AFTER VALENTINE’S DAY!) So yeah, somehow the opposite was the case :b</p>

<p>Oh wow… </p>

<p>One of my friend’s mothers openly talk about her ex’s and her’s sexual relationship (his dad). There is a story about a greenhouse adventure combined with breaking and entering I never want to hear again. And I never want to eat at their dining room table again. It’s not the same table, but it’s enough to gross me out.</p>

<p>^does it creep your friend out?</p>

<p>Kind of. </p>

<p>His family, albeit very Christian/Mormon/religious, if very open about sexual relations between parents. It’s odd. He didn’t want to know about the greenhouse and his conception but he’s accepted it as normal if that makes sense.</p>

<p>Damnit. I just asked my mom her anniversary. She asked why and I was too honest. I was conceived on Valentines. I forgot about weeks in the year vs. being early vs. other crap. I hate this. Why must I have asked?</p>

<p>EDIT: I hate my mother, “Actually you’re still safe. It would have been a week or so after Valentines”. Hate.</p>

<p>I swear I hope my kid never asks for their conception story.</p>

<p>^ Agreed.</p>

<p>Now she’s holding it over my head. Hate.</p>

<p>“of course you never know. they just go off of a best guess for the most part. whos to say you weren’t 3 weeks early [instead of two].” She’s laughing at me and my severe discomfort.</p>

<p>I’m such an idiot for being honest.</p>

<p>gives you a certain idea of the frequency</p>

<p>Come on InquisitiveOne…</p>

<p>What ever happened to asking how women felt about becoming uglier as they aged in the parents forum? It was funny as hell when you asked it here, but you never did there.</p>

<p>^■■■■■ I’m really scared cuz they might delete my thread and ban me :(</p>

<p>Woot. Me and MIT’s parents had sex around the same time. July…:D.</p>

<p>^^^ aw ****. Inq1 getting called out</p>

<p>I was born in July… my parents ****ed around October.</p>

<p>^Probably July too. You just weren’t conceived then</p>

<p>My parents conceived me around their 1 year anniversary. woooot</p>

<p>My brother was born exactly 9 months after my mom’s birthday. birthday sex</p>

<p>/no</p>

<p>Aren’t women born with all the eggs they’ll have? Same with guys and sperm? If so, REALLY TECHNICALLY speaking, we could be as old as our parents. Since were were all one egg and one sperm once.</p>

<p>I think that’s so cool btw. Knowing that we were once a little swimming spermy and little eggie :)</p>
