How pregnant should I consider myself?

Hello. It feels a little surreal to be writing in the pregnancy forum; after 10 months of ttc I got my bfp this week Grin ! Ironically I was waiting for blood test results to see if I was ovulating and we had recently received "sub-optimal" sperm analysis results.

My cycles have been irregular during ttc, thankfully shortening more recently. My last cycle before bfp was 31 days.

Now I understand the whole concept that to start off your pregnancy is counted from day1 of AF (for me this was 30th sept),however I ov a bit later than normal and fertility friend puts my ov at cd19 which was 18th oct.

If I go from cycle day one I'm technically 5 weeks pregnant, however if I go by aprox conception I'm only 4 weeks and 2 days.

I'm not too worried about how far along the GP and midwife go by, but what I'm trying to understand is how far along should I consider myself in terms of symptoms and how my little cub is progressing?

Any words of wisdom would be greatly reciebeived.

I feel more at ease. Had my blood test results today to see if I was ovulating- little did I know, I was preggo when I had the blood taken. Everything was spot on but my progesterone was 89. Apprantley that's really highly bearing in mind I was only about 9dpo at that stage. I'm all booked in with the midwife for the first two apt. Anyone have any ideas about the progesterone level?
