how many weeks were you when you found out you were first pregnant by test result?????

I feel like I know my body way more than most people. This is my first pregnancy and I found out at 3 weeks. I went to the ER thinking I had a kidney stone, but we got a pleasant surprise. We were so excited. I thought I could have children due to sooo many x rays in my life and being on birth control from age 13-25. Thank god we were wrong. Ive had 3 ultrasounds since I found out. One at week 3, week 5, week 7 and my next is tomorrow.

  • Couldn't have children.*

  • My first pregnancy I found out at 2 weeks. This time I was 6 weeks. I think chasing after my toddler made me forget about my period this time around lol
  • Can I ask why so many ultrasounds?
  • I didn't get a for sure positive result in the at home pregnancy test until I was 3 days late for my period. I knew I was pregnant pretty much from conception though. My first sign was my dog acting weird (apparently your scent changes) she would not leave me alone for anything. Next my boobs began hurting like the week after I conceived! My hcg levels always seem to take awhile - when pregnant with my daughter 11 years ago it was very faintly positive at first as well but I was definitely pregnant. Can't wait to go to the dr for the first time next week!
  • 4 weeks:) I was nauseous the week before and I had a feeling before I took the test that I was pregnant:)
  • First time I was totally clueless and was about 6.5weeks along. I was whining to my mom about not having had my period yet (I have irregular periods so being late wasn't uncommom) and that my boobs hurt, she gave me the mom look and asked if I had taken a test yet. Sure enough it was positive. Second pregnancy (the one that ended in MC) I knew pretty much from the moment I concieved. I waited weeks to test. I was about 4 weeks along when I got a positive. This pregnancy I was about 5.5weeks. I suspected I was pregnant before that, but didn't want to get my hopes up, plus I had no idea when I ovulated or if this would have even been a normal cycle following the loss.

  • I found out at two weeks pregnant by a home pregnancy test and a missed period.
  • I found out at 4wks 3days. I had a dream that told me I'd have a baby and I had to take a test.
  • My periods have always been regular until I stoped birth control 2 years ago. Then they were every 3 months. The first ultrasound didnt show anything but a tiny black hole. The 2nd showed the yolk sac and the third showed a baby with a little heat beat. Tomorrow they will let us hear the heartbeat and go over blood tests and measure the baby again. No risks and no problems as of yet. Next visit will be a month away after tomorrow. I think because I am having lots of dental work and had x rays on my teeth they just want to make sure all is well and progressing normally. I love seeing our little alien. ♡♡♡
  • I had been having heart palpitations, even feeling like I couldn't breathe fully....that was probably about 5 days after I conceived. Didn't know that though until I missed my period about two weeks later (at about "4 weeks") and took a home pregnancy test. Dr said that probably explained the week or so of heart palpitations as all tests (EKG, blood tests, even a holter monitor) had come back normal. Was just the extra blood flow from making a baby in those first few days! Our bodies are doing some crazy things right now!!
  • I had the same exact problem!! Was on birth control forever and now my periods are so irregular. Anither reason i didnt test right away this time. But, I would love seeing the little one so often too!!! I hope you have a wonderful appointment and u/s tomorrow!
  • I found out the day after my missed period. I didn't really think much of it cause my periods can come a few days late since I've been off birth control, but I couldn't sleep that night because I had anxiety and it wouldn't go away. I've dealt with anxiety in the past but this was different. I thought that maybe I'll take a test to ease my mind, and it came out positive right away! I think my anxiety was my body saying "hold on everyone, we got a feritilized one!!" :)
  • I'm still not sure how far I am as if I work out by my period I'd of found out at 5 weeks and I'd now be 6+5 but I also did a clear blue test which then dated me at 2-3weeks which would make me about 4 weeks but I think I'm more than 4 weeks.
  • 4 weeks exactly, it was the day my period was supposed to start and i decided to go for a walk. I wound up at the Dollar store and intuition told me to take a test. We have been together for 5 years and the majority of the time we were unprotected by choice and it didnt happen so we figured it couldn't as i had been told i was incapable of getting pregnant anyways. I am 8 weeks+5
  • I got a positive HPT at 11 DPO or 3 weeks 4 days pregnant.

  • I found out on Valentine's Day also. About 3 days before my expected period. So very early!

  • I've pretty much known in the back of my head from day one, I actually thought I had a miscarriage that was too early on to read high enough levels, but I tried not to think about it or get excited about the prospect of being pregnant because I had so many false alarm heart breaks over the past year... so I didn't know "officially"  until I was nearly 5 weeks. 
  • 3 weeks! I also had weird pain and had a test laying around. I was very surprised to see that faint positive. I was terrified, now just extatic!
  • I think I was 12 dpo so 3 weeks 5 or 6 days.

    My Ovulation Chart
  • I took a test on 2/19 which was 2 wk/1d post ovulation and it came back negative. My cycles tended to be a week longer so when I still didn't get my period on the day I thought I would (2/24) I decided to take a test the next day. I found out on 2/25 that I was pregnant and took 2 tests just in case. The clear blue said I was 2-3 weeks. When I had a sonogram on 3/6 the doctor said my gestational sac was measuring 5 wks/5d or 6wk/1d. So I am unsure when I actually conceived even through I ovulated on 2/4. But the funny thing was that a few days after I got the negative test I had such a vivid dream and all day long I was crying. I told my husband and mom that if I didn't already get a negative test, I would think I was pregnant
  • I was 4 weeks when we found out..took a home test because of missed period and it was positive.
  • I was 5 days past a 5 day embryo transfer when I got my +
  • With my first, I found out at 8 weeks! I had no symptoms except I mentioned to my mom that my pants were getting tight even though I was working out 5 days a week and eating super clean.. She said "I think your pregnant" and went and bought me test. I wouldn't have tested if she didn't initiate it.

    I was told by my doctor that I wouldn't be able to have children without "help" or possibly ever. We are currently 10 weeks pregnant with our second! I knew at 2 weeks with this little one.
  • I was 1-2 weeks according to the poas test
  • I found out between 3 to 4 weeks. I was 2 days late on my period and thought I would take a test before planning a dinner with drinks with friends. Glad I took the test. I couldn't believe it. It felt so unreal. I took a picture and sent my husband a Happy early valentines day message along with the picture. After he got off work, I told him I wanted to buy another test and we did... it also came back positive. We were so excited. We have been trying for 3 years.
  • I was almost 6 weeks, so about 2 weeks past my missed period. I really did not think I was pregnant. A few days before my period was supposed to happen, I had oral surgery and had a horrible reaction to either the anesthesia or Motrin. I was throwing up non stop for 3 days. Couldn't even get out of bed. So I thought maybe that delayed my period a bit, and kept waiting for it to come. I even had "symptoms," which now I know were pregnancy symptoms, not period symptoms.
  • 4 weeks:) I was nauseous the week before and I had a feeling before I took the test that I was pregnant:)


    Exact same thing!  I knew before I even missed my period.  Made myself wait until it was officially 'late' but knew before it was even positive!

    I found out around 5 weeks. I actually had a period when it was due but towards the end of it, my boobs were sore and my sense of smell was crazy, so that promted me to test.
  • 10 days past O with my first... with a squinty little "is that a line?? i think that's a line??" lol. We were TTA at that point.

    This time I was past 5 weeks and only realized because my boobs were sore.

  • I felt like I was pregnant about a week after I missed my period. I took 2 pregnancy tests back to back and both were negative. I was disappointed because I wanted to be pregnant SO bad. I thought maybe my body was just playing tricks on me. Then I missed another period which prompted me to take 3 more pregnancy test which all were positive! I did a due date calculator and it put me at 8 weeks when I found out. Thinking back, I may have read the first 2 pregnancy tests wrong or done them incorrectly. I have A doctor's appointment in 4 days so I'll get a better idea of how far along I am!

    3W5D(12dpo), tested 2 days(10dpo) before and got a negative.  My only symptom was cramping, but I thought my period was coming for sure.  I would have put money on being out of the game that month.  I POAS 2 days after my negative, left it sitting on the counter and went to unload groceries, went back to check and almost fainted.  Could not believe there was a second line!  Best day yet!  Took another to confirm and then another the next day because I was still in shock!  Confirmed by the Dr the day after that!

  • I found out at 3 weeks, but I thought I was 4 weeks along. I was having typical pregnancy symptoms and SO tired, and I knew it was possible. I knew I was either pregnant or having the PMS from hell, and my period never showed. However, I've only had a handful of regular periods since my son was born, between breastfeeding and then another pregnancy and miscarriage followed by a D&C (and the period from hell starting on Christmas Eve of all days!).

    When I found out I was pregnant with my son, I was 5 weeks along, but I'd suspected something was up for 2-3 weeks before. I didn't feel well, and I remember telling my husband (who was my boyfriend at the time), "if I didn't know any better, I'd think I was pregnant." He had been told by a doctor that he was sterile, so it was a surprise, but he told me later that he'd said something to his roommate about thinking I might be pregnant. Sure enough, when my period was a week late, I decided to take a test and it was positive.

    With our angel, I suspected at around 3 weeks, but didn't find out till 4. We were at the beach and I had no appetite so I couldn't even bring myself to order crab legs when we went out, despite having talked about it the whole time we planned the trip. Not to mention I was extremely tired.

  • Based on my LMP I found out when I was 8 weeks. But it was really only 5w along at the time!
