asked on

baby due date calculation - doctor prescibed vs actual

when doctors give a due date, it can't be scientifically accurate, right?

technically, is it right that baby needs 270 days of time in the womb to come to the world?

if so, an example would like this:
if jan1st is the actual conception date, then the baby , in ideal conditions should be born oct 1st?

i just want to confirm that the doctor given date may not be accurate, because they have not way to knowing or confirming the actually conception date...

thanks
