How far along am I?

I had my period on 14th August, but I have PCOS so I ovulated later (I think on 18th September) and my period was due yesterday, so would I be 5 weeks pregnant? My Flo app says it’s 7 weeks but I think it’s assuming that my period is regular? HELP!

I had this issue with flo as I have PCOS it said I was two weeks ahead of what I really was as I didn't ovulate until day 26. If you have an early scan booked or even the NHS scan they should be able to confirm exactly how far along you are. Congratulations x

Ah thank you so much for commenting. Ok this is comforting as it’s so confusing 🙃 When did you end up getting your NHS scan? I may book an early scan for a week or so

So the midwife will go by the date of the first day of your last period until you have your first nhs scan (12 weeks) x

NHS scan was 12+3 but I think they can be anywhere between 11-13 wks! Early scans a good idea especially with PCOS if you're wanting to know where you are, flo said I was 8wks but early scan said I was 6+1 wks! Midwife went off date of my last period for the booking appointment even though I explained dates weren't right, she then said oh we're doing this a bit early when I got there! But still went ahead with the appointment anyway. Hope everything goes well for you x

I expect this is exactly what will happen to me! Were you able to see the heartbeat at 6+1? This is when I’m planning on getting a private scan!
