Hello,

I had my implant removed on the 11/9/19, I had no periods and last week I got a BFP. I'm so happy, BUT I have no clue how far along I am or when my due date would be!

How on earth would I find out?

Thanks 😊

You need a scan as soon as possible. Have you done a self referral or been referred by your GP for maternity care?
You need a dating scan done because you could be up to about 10 weeks. When did you get a positive pregnancy test? A scan in the first 12 weeks or so will be the most accurate way to estimate gestation (it is only ever an estimate)

@Nanmumandmidwife I have been booked in with the midwife next Wednesday. I got my BFP last Wednesday, I also used the clear blue digital which said 3+ so that didn't really help me!

Do you think the midwife will send me for a scan?

That is good that you are seeing the midwife next week. Explain the situation to her. Basically it seems that you are between 6 and 11 weeks now, so I would expect them to arrange a scan in the next 2 weeks so that even if you the furthest on you will still be in the first trimester.
You could also ring maternity ultrasound at the hospital & ask their advice. Each hospital does things slightly differently, so you need to find out local practice. Good luck!
