Calculating due dates
I got my first bfp last week after 2 years of being unable to conceive I was getting faint lines and got a 1-2 week result on a clearblue done in the afternoon (I know not the best time)
However my LMP was the 6th of April. So it calculates out I'd be 7 weeks pregnant today.
However going by the clearblue test result Id only be 5 weeks. But I know the doctors calculate it from the LMP I'm just confused Haha.
I have only experienced sore boobs and more pee'n symptoms so far with occasional cramps.
I just don't know how far I actually am and what symptoms I should be expecting.
as you can imagine I'm a constant nervous wreck so any help and advise would be great!!

If I add 2 weeks onto the 2 weeks from the digital test that's at least a week after LMP I have irregular cycles varied from 27 days to 35 days. I've never had 2 cycles the same amount of time since they returned in august.
So the doctors will still calculate it from LMP? But when my "12 week, dating scan" comes is it possible that I might be a few weeks less pregnant than I thought?
I had bloods done in January and they showed I wasn't ovulating. and that I'd need further assessment but hadn't been to see the hospital yet and then fell. So partner is still in shock as we didn't expect it happening so that's why we are unsure how to calculate how far I am.
I'd have been 5 weeks and 5 days when I done the clearblue. After googling it alot of women have been 5 weeks and on got 1-2 on clearblue so I genuinely don't know what to expect. I just wish I would start feeling pregnant to reassure me things are working and happening as they should x
