Guess the due date just for fun

Hi guys today is finally scan day after what feels like the longest 5 weeks of my life! Trying really hard not to be nervous about everything being alright (had previous miscarriage at 6 weeks) so thought I'd let u all know my story and see if we can guess my due date!

So last year in August I fell pregnant and had a miscarriage at roughly 6 weeks. After that my cycles got longer and longer by 3/4 days every month, one cycle was even 64 days long! But majority were between 34/38. I went to my doctors about this in June and explained that I had now been unsuccessful of having a baby for a year so he referred me to get some tests done and I was to wait for a letter in the post.

I had been using ovulation sticks every month and had sex lots when I was ovulating so because I'd had no luck I decided there must be something wrong and threw them out and gave up.

My last period was 6th july, we had sex on 22nd July then 13th,14th,15th August. My period was late but with them being irregular I didn't think much of it but I was going out for bank holiday weekend so decided it was best I done a pregnancy test just to make sure, I done this on 23rd August and it was negative (clear blue digital).

The week after my boobs started to get really sore so I thought my period must be coming but when I was sorting through things in my bedroom I found another clear blue digital test so thought I'd give it a go just out of boredom lol and to my amazement it was positive 3+!!

Midwife has said I am 13 weeks going by my last period but surely I would have got a positive test the first time! But then how did I get a negative test and then a week and a half later get one saying 3+!

I can't wait to finally find out today, does anyone have any guesses?

Sorry for long post 🙈🙈

Well that's odd!

I'm going with you getting pregnant in August, so the first test would have been too early. The weeks indicators aren't always accurate, so I'll ignore the actual reading.

I'm going to guess that you're due around the 7th May, which would make you around 9 weeks?

That sounds similar to mine, I tested when i was due my period and had a negative test. Thought i would then get my period in the following week so resisted testing but it didn't arrive. I had a positive result a week later! The booking appointment purely goes on dates so my original due date was incorrect and got moved when we went for our dating scan when they thought i would be showing at 12 weeks, i was actually 11 weeks and had to go back for another scan to have the screening. Will be interesting to find out!!

I’m going to guess April 25th. Good luck OP. Let us know x x x

I agree similar to above - your around 9 weeks now due 9th May. I done a clear blue digital 2 days before period due it was negative but I got a faint pink line on a first response early result as it is a more sensitive pregnancy test.
