Unsure of my dates

I’m a bit confused and I guess I won’t truly know until I have my 12 week scan but wondering if anyone else has been I a similar position.

My last period was on the 18th October making me 7 weeks pregnant. However the month before that I was over a week late on my period which never happens. I also had very strong lower back pains which also I don't usually have and the bleeding was quite heavy but just for 2-3 days which again isn’t normal to me. Period started 16 September.

I am incredibly bloated and feel like I’m showing already, and generally have felt exhausted and nauseous since the period I had in September. Now what I’m unsure about is could I possibly be further long than the 7 weeks I think I am or am I just thinking into it too much.

This is my 3rd pregnancy so I’m kind of comparing to how I felt with my other 2 at that stage.

Early pregnancy bloat can make you feel/look alot bigger esp with your 3rd I looked like I had a bump quite early on with this pregnancy but it went down and turned into a proper bump in time. Suppose only time can tell but if you had cramps and bleeding in Sept I would say that was probally a period just delayed which could Of been caused by anything. If you didn't want to wait till your 12wk scan a private scan could help you out instead just so you know?
