Dear Lavanya, Thanks for the question. I can understand. 172 days means almost 25 weeks and translates in itself as 6 months. The development of pregnancy is counted from the first day of the woman's last normal menstrual period (LMP), even though the development of the fetus does not begin until conception, which is about two weeks later. You told your LMP was in October and that simply means you have already completed more than 6 months. In this case, there has to be a mistake. Talk to your gynecologist. Take care
