How many weeks am I?

in 1st Trimester
How many weeks am I? You ladies probably know more about this than me. I had my last pd on 9/2. On avg, my pds have been about 3638 days apart since I got off bc in April. Hubs I had a lot of sex the month of Sept. so not sure the date of conception. Got BFP last wknd took 3 HPT and hadn't tested b4 then. We go to the dr in 2 wks but until then would love to know about how many wks I am. I am guessing 56 but not sure because i know its based off of the day of LMP but mine was irregular.Thanks for all your help ladies! This is our 1st so I'm new to this :

    With irregular cycles you're just going to drive yourself crazy until you have an u/s.  Yes, typically they go by LMP, which would make you about 6w4d.  But if you got a BPF over the weekend and we make the assumption that you got a positive as early as possible (i.e. approximately 2 weeks after ovulation) that would make you more like 4w4d.  An u/s will tell you for sure and it's truly the only way.

    Thanks for your help! I will probably drive myself crazy so I'll wait patiently until our first doctors visit in two weeks :) It can't come soon enough!

    This.  With DS, my OB used LMP to date me until my 1st ultrasound.  Based on his size they moved my due date back a week.

    My Last pd was also Sept 2 (how exciting) :) , and I am 6 wks along...supposedly due on June 9th of next year. There are pregnancy calculators such as this one which can help you figure how far along you are: https://www.babycenter.com/pregnancy-due-date-calculator

    Good Luck :)

    My cycles were 35 days apart after I went off BC, and while my OB originally dated me at 8 weeks, the ultrasound dated us at 7. Anything's possible! We had our positive test at week 4.

    For your information here is the link you might like trying: https://www.pregnology.com/due-date.php

    Your due date: Tuesday - June 18th, 2013 is based upon your having a 36-38 day cycle using the 37th as your period.

    Giving your last menstrual period: Sunday - September 2nd, 2012 with ovulation on Monday - September 24th, 2012 conceiving on Tuesday - September 25th, 2012 with your implantation occurring on Wednesday October 3rd, 2012 thus giving you that due date of Tuesday - June 18th, 2013!
