Im so confused. My last period begun on the 11th may and was extremely light but lasted 6 days like normal, although my periods have never been that light before...
Then this month my period was due on the 8th (yesterday) but i took several tests on the 3rd which were very strong positive. A cb digital test said i was 2-3 weeks on the 3rd.
Surely that would mean i ovulated when i was on my light 'period'. ??

Any help here? Im so confused..

Should also add i tested after my light period finished and it was negative..

I wouldn't trust the CB Digi in terms of dates because the hormone levels are different in everyone. I would assume you ovulated around the 18-22nd May to get such a strong line on the 3rd so you could be nearly 2 weeks on the 3rd June and that would explain the result.

Or it could be twins!! Grin

Either way - congratulations!!! Smile

I just want to point out that in terms of what the GP/MW will say, you are in fact almost four weeks' pregnant as it is counted from the first day of your last period.

Unless, as I think you're suggesting, you think the first lot of bleeding was not a real period, in which case you would be eight weeks. Given the CB digi results I'm guessing the former is more likely.
