Elves pregnancy, how long? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

In Morgoth's Ring, which is the only book I've read that talks of Elven childbirth, childhood, etc. It says that Elves gave birth exactly 1 year later, or very close to the same day of conception, and the day that is remembered each year (their birthday) is the date of their conception. This is in the Laws and Customs section. I can't think of anywhere else this is discussed in the books. Anyone else? I don't know where Oandanel's information came from. I've never seen it.
