Title says it all.
I had my first Depo injection on 28th June. I was on one of the last light spotting days of my period. I bled for one day on the 5th July. We have a 15.5 month old DD, I'm not long back at work and to be honest I can count on one hand how many times DH and I have had sex since the injection.
DH is very quiet and probably more shocked than I am and we are trying to get our heads around it.
I know i need to make an appt with a MW, but How often do they give you a dating scan if you don't know how far along you are? I could be 4 weeks, I could be 12 weeks. I've put being tired etc down to being back at work. I had no sickness or major symptoms with DD so I can't even go by past experience to guess.
Sorry if I'm babbling. I'm just in a bit of shock.

Good luck!
What a 
story! Congratulations and please keep us updated xx
Congratulations. Ds was a depot baby. I remember the shock well 
Thank you everyone. We are a both a bit and all at the same time. It would also explain why I was feeling those little bubble/flip flop movements that I was telling myself were gas. Nope, was actually baby!
Only 4 weeks to go until my next scan so will hopefully get a proper look at baby then.
My "period" I had when I went for my Depo was a completely normal period to me so had no reason to think otherwise. And I thought that the one say bleed I had a week later must have been the implantation bleed when I actually found out I was pregnant.
We won't be finding out the gender of the baby, same as we didn't with DD, so in a way a girl would be good as can reuse all DD's clothes. Either way though all we want is to see a healthy baby in 5 months time.
Off to tell the FIL this morning and my mum this afternoon. My dad is working away abroad for another 2 months so have text him to see if he can FaceTime later on.
Crikey, you were obviously pregnant when you had your depo despite a period!!
Many congratulations
Congratulations Squishy!
Shame the sonography was grumpy, I suppose they can't do either of their standard sets of measurements at 16w, but still 
Good luck with this pregnancy, a spring arrival is the best time IMO!
Wow what a surprise.
However, I know the feeling that happened with my first daughter, when I found out I was approx 12 weeks. When I had my scan I thought I Was 16 weeks turns out I was 21+5 shocked was not the word lol!
Well, that was certainly an interesting appointment. Turns out I'm actually 16+4 Was not expecting that! EDD is now 03.03.14
Came away a bit disappointed if I'm honest as sonographer wasn't exactly the friendliest with a great table side manner. When she saw I was actually 16 weeks she just didn't really bother. She took head measurement to check actual dates then said "can't do anymore you will need to wait until 20 week scan". I felt it was a massive imposition when I asked if she managed to get any half decent pictures we could have.
Hopefully 20 week scan will be a bit better. We are a bit shocked at being 4 weeks further than we thought. What a roller coaster 10 days we've had! We are going to tell our parents this weekend and think they're going to be just as surprised!
Treating ourselves to a Chinese tonight

Pint of squash drank ready to pee in a pot. I'm going to wee all over my hand aren't I?!
Hopefully that will give me the "comfortably full bladder" they ask for. Don't they know by know pregnant women either don't need to wee or they need to wee a small river right that very second?
