I just found out i'm pregnant, but i dont know when i'm due?

Question

I started my last period on October15th. My next period was supposed to be on the 5th of NovemeberI started it, but ti was lighter and lasted only 1 day. Which period do i go by?

Answer 1

If you are indeed pregnant, then you would go by the period you had on October 15th. The reason for this is if the period you had on Novemeber 5th (which was just a few days ago) really was a period, then it would be too soon to tell if you are pregnant. If the period you had on Novemebr 5th was a real period, then that would make you only 4 days pregnant, which would be too soon for the test to show. So, since the test shows pregnant, i would go by the October 15th date.

The 'period' that you had on Novemember 5th most likely was Implantation Bleeding. This is when the fertilized egg implants in the lining of the uterus, which can cause some bleeding. It is usually lighter and shorter than the average period.

Since your last full period was on October 15th, then that would make you 3 weeks, and 4 days pregnant today. Congrats!

Your due date is on July 22nd, 2007. Its estimated that more girls are born in the month of July, but that is just a fun estimate and has no real determination on the sex of your baby,

Conception most likely occured on October 29th, which was a Sunday. Can you remeber having sex around this day?

Your first trimester will end on January 7th. This is usually the time that morning sickness goes away, but if your lucky you might not get it.
Good luck and congrats!

Answer 2

I would assume that the bleeding on the 5th of November was not your period but breakthrough bleeding due to the fact that your hormone levels weren't high enough to suppress it.

I would go by October 15th as your last period.

You should let your doc know about this situation just in case there is a discrepancy in your dates later on.

Answer 4

I had the same problem.. My normal period was on Aug 28 but on sep. 15th I had my period for a day. I went to my ob and they did an internal ultrasound to find out. My due date is June 4. Your ob wll probably order an ultrasound as well

Answer 5

Go from the October 15th one. You are due July 22, 2007! Congrats and Best of Luck! Hope this helps!

Answer 6

October 15 is the one you would go by the November 5th sounds like implantation bleeding.

Answer 7

I would think the October one but ask your doc. When I went in I thought I was around 17 weeks, She said I was more like around 12 so now I have no idea of the due date. Good luck though and if you are like me and forget your questions once you get there try writing them down. :)

Answer 8

When you go in for your first visit tell the doctor about both of them and they will tell you when your due date is. They can tell by the ultrasound and by checking you. I would think the October one but since I am not a doctor I would not want to say.

Answer 9

I would go by October 15th, because the other time you were bleeding could have been implantation bleeding....therefore, your due date will be approximately July 22nd. However, find out for sure by your doctor

Answer 10

to my understanding, they go by your last period,regardless of its normality. But if you go to the doctor, they normally tell you. If you say you can't remember, then they normally give you an internal ultrasound,which goes into you privates and can tell you and the doc more accurately how far along you are.
Happy pregnancy!
