The first day of my last period was 15th april. I went to the doctor today and he calculated me as 6 weeks pregnant.... How? Any explanation?

I'd make that 4 weeks - perhaps he can't count?! Confused

That is four weeks, yes. Confused

Definitely 4 weeks. I guess he's got confused and added another two weeks on, not realising two weeks has already been added between LMP and ovulation. That was so difficult to explain I can see why he's got confused. I'm sure when you see your midwife shell look this Confused then change it.

They check it all at your 12 week scan so don't worry!
