How Pregnant am I!?

Hi, im so new to all this so am finding it a bit confusing to be honest.

I had my implant out on 27th October, have not had a period but took a pregnancy test (or 3) yesterday and it came back positive!
I was taking regular ovulation tests and it looks like I ovulated around 5th November.
Does this mean my period was 22nd October and I am in fact around 5 weeks pregnant!?
So confused 😕

It would be 5 and a bit weeks if you ovulated nov 5th (3.5 weeks since then + 2 weeks because that's just how they date pregnancies)

Just to warn you - if you take a clear blue dates estimating test, they count from ovulation, so should say 2-3 or 3+ for you.

@TheDayDreamBelievers it says 1-2 weeks on the test so I've obviously got something wrong 🤣🤣

Don't worry about dates - it doesn't matter too much - when you go for your 12 week scan they'll almost certainly revise your due date anyway!

The clear blue tests that say how pregnant you are work from the date of ovulation I believe, whereas gestation is measured from the last period until your dates are confirmed by the 12 week scan. Your "weeks pregnant" would be your clear blue + 2 weeks.
