Hey ladies,
Popping over in here as I thought I had a clue how far along I am, but am starting to doubt it now.
Long story short, I have PCOS and my last period was on the 9th of July. This would make me 13+6 today, but I know my cycles are up to 3 months long and it's unlikely I'm this far along. I got my BFP on the 31st of August, and when comparing the darkness of the test result to my previous 2 pregnancies I came to the conclusion I'm probably around 9+5 right now.
My husband mentioned today though, that it seems odd as I picked up the heartbeat with my doppler over a week ago. I went back and checked things, and it would have made me 8+5 when I picked it up for the first time. Now, I'm a size 20 so wouldn't expect that to be in my favour.
With my first daughter I picked up her heartbeat at around 13 weeks, but I was new to the doppler at the time and had only had it for days. With my second daughter I picked it up at 10+6 for the first time
How far along were you when you *first* picked up your baby's heartbeat? Would 8+5 really be ridiculous early, and would you say I'm more likely to be closer to 12 weeks now rather than the 10 I think I am? =/
I know it isn't a big deal and will be confirmed with a scan anyway (on the 24th, which going by LMP puts me at 15+4 ish, so too far on for the NT scan but it's the earliest my midwife could get me in), but I'd quite like an idea of how far on I am.
