When my ex was pregnant with our kid, they asked this at EVERY. SINGLE. APPOINTMENT.

    It's a way to approximate fetal age without an ultrasound and make sure development is progressing as expected. So while pregnant its actually a relevant question. Asking every time is one way to ensure that records/expectations are correct, same reason they ask your birthday like 3 times between checkin, the nurse, and the doc.

    For women with less standard cycles I'm sure it is more annoying.
