Advice on how far along I am

Hi everyone!

This has been on my mind lately and was curious if someone had an opinion on this / ever been in the same situation.

So I found out I was pregnant about two weeks ago. (I am now five weeks) So literally at 3 weeks - a full week before my period. I honestly just took the internet cheapie test for fun.. saw a little line so took a FRER and got a pretty dark, red line. I am wondering if that is possible or if I might have mistaken my last period for something else? It hadn't occurred to me that could happen until my mom was telling me about how a test wouldn't register her as pregnant for over TWO MONTHS! Of course, I am sure there have been many advancements in engineering of HPT since then but still lol.

So my two questions are:

1.Has anyone ever gotten a positive pregnancy test at 3 weeks? (I was able to get a positive on a clear blue digital by 3 weeks and 3 days)

2.Has anyone ever found out they were farther along than they expected?

Hi @werner615 I was a week further along than I thought, they adjusted my dates at the scan. Not a huge amount out but I was pretty sure of my dates so I was quite surprised.

Meant to add that I also tested positive very early on in my cycle so it does make sense that I was further along than I thought.

I tested positive at 8dpo but I’ve also had implantation bleeding that was a very convincing period.
