Hi congratulations!! - I'm not sure how accurate they are - it just means your about 1-2 weeks post conception. I wouldn't worry too much about it - your midwife/GP will go on your last period, and work out your EDD based on the length of your cycles, so if you normally have 28 day cycles your and you came on 25th October then your about 4 and a half weeks, but if you normally have 35ish day cycles then your less than that.

Not sure if that helps!

Congratulations! I had this problem as my periods are completely erratic. 1-2 means from date of conception, your pregnancy will be dated from about two weeks before that (date your cycle began roughly).

Tell them you're unsure and they may offer you an early dating scan to confirm.
