Same thing happened to me. I had irregular periods and they had to do an ultrasound to see exactly how far along I was. I would say you are about 6-8 weeks. Due to that is usually when the morning sickness hits. Congrats!!!!!!!!!! and Good Luck!

Were you on birth control or some other reason for your periods to be messed up? I would count the June as your last known period, and count from there to see how far along you are. That would make you around 3 months. But then again if you haven't had any pregnancy symptoms until now you might just be 3-6 weeks.
Your doctor will probably do an ultrasound at 16 weeks to measure the head, spine, and thigh bone to see how old it is. It is too early to tell accurately before then. They might still do one now, but it will be so little it will be hard to tell.

I say your due between 03/03/07 to 03/11/07
You may and may not have to have an u/s most doctors can tell by feeling how high your fundus is and by feeling your uterus manually. EEWWW OUCH EEE....yea it dont feel good. But, Congratulations! I am due 03/03/07 with twins and was concieved on March 27th. I would say your preiod in april was when the egg was implanting itself to the uterus.

Not a doctor, but I assume you conceived before the last period you didn't have. Nothing to worry about, the doctor will eventually figure it out in time. I hope you're happy about this. If so, congratulations!!! If not, hope you really consider adoption. Lots of good people out there who would love to have one, like I did when younger, but couldn't.
Best to you and yours.

You will more than likely get a sonogram, the sonogram tech will do a rough measurement of the fetus' head to determine approximate gestational age. Theyre usually pretty right-on with it.
Good luck!

typically on your first visit to your obgyn they will do an ultrasound to decide placement of the fetus in your womb and will attempt to gage how far along you are. they may have to do a couple of ultrasounds to be sure of your dates, and trust me when i say your dates may change throughout your pregnancy, with my daughter i started off due in january and ended up deliverling in march

I would think so. My doctor did with my daughter because I had a weird period before I got pregnant with her. If her doesn't ask him to!

Do you normally have irregular periods or not? I have endometriosis and that may be a cause of my irregular periods.

They might do more than one. In order for them to compare growth.
