I'm pregnant but don't even know how far along! irregular periods, help!

cheerychumms · Aug 6th, 2012, 16:49 PM

Hi all! So, here is my story. I missed a period in June (not due to being pregnant,just irregular). Me and hubby had a couple times early in July (didnt really keep track of the days). Started to notice some symptoms out of whack around July 9th or so. I got a July 14th, a very faint line July 16th and then a definite July 18th! At this point I had some real pronounced symptoms of pregnancy. Went to the Dr's on July 24th, they did an ultrasound and didnt see anything, not even a gestational sac,said it could be too early. Sent me for blood work, my beta level came back at 7,150 so nurse said I am definitely pregnant and to come back for another ultrasound in 2 weeks. My question is, how do I know how far along I am if I missed my period in June not due to pregnancy? Usually they go by last menstrual period to date your pregnancy but I cant since I didnt even have a period the month before
Going by when I got my how far do you think I am? my numbers are good I think, i have tons of symptoms but they didnt see a baby. I got pregnant with twins in 04', from my mothers side. Could this pregnancy be twins you think? I am just so confused as to how far along I really am since I cant date from my lmp. Please

Well I got my BFP on the 20th and I am 6 weeks and 2 or 3 days... Look at my ticker, and I got 3 bfn's the days before I got my BFP

I think you would be about 6 weeks pregnant .... definately not 10 weeks because they would have seen a baby. (you mentioned you didnt know wether you missed your period in june due to pregnancy so that would make you 10 weeks ish) xx At 6 weeks baby is teeeeeeeeeeeny so thats why it wasnt picked up on a scan

I would guess you were somewhere around 12 DPO (3 weeks 5 days) on July 16th when you saw your first BFP, given when you said you started noticing symptoms. That would mean ovulation would have been around July 4th, which would make your due date sometime around the last week of March. And right now you'd be 6, nearly 7 weeks pregnant. That would definitely be consistent with not having seen anything on a scan two weeks ago. That would be my guess

Thanks ladies! Guess I won't truly know for sure until my next ultrasound which is coming up in about a week. Can't wait to see the little twinkie
