No period but pregnant!?

Hello, I was wondering if anyone had a similar experience to my own?
I stopped taking contraception August 2020 to try to start a family, since then I have had no period therefore speaking with my GP and arranging a blood test. The results of these was an elevated prolactin level and to repeat in 1 month. After googling, it said sometimes it can be elevated due to pregnancy. So, I tested positive on Wednesday and have done multiple tests since, including every first morning urine and two clear blue weeks at 1-2 weeks. I am just in a bit of shock and disbelief as I have never had a period hence doing 7 tests since Wednesday! Shock if anyone had a similar experience/advice I would love to know :) many thanks! Q

Congrats! I guess you need to contact your midwives and ask for a scan - how pregnant could you be?!?! Do you have any idea? Xx

Congratulations!! I had exactly this! We started TTC at the start of 2020. I have PCOS and hadn't had any periods but low and behold at the beginning of November I found myself doing a test and discovering I was 3 weeks pregnant!! Blew my mind! I rang the Early Pregnancy Unit and they booked me in for a dating scan to check how far along I was as I'd no clue when I conceived! I'm now 20 weeks and due in July! Best of luck OP! Xx

Thanks Shmerlock. Congrats to you too!
I think I am obsessed with testing as they are still quite faint.... is this normal? I have done 2 clear blue weeks and it said pregnant 1-2 weeks but I am in total disbelief! Shock

Thanks smilingdonkey.
I have no idea on how far! I tested positive pregnant 1-2 weeks on clear blue week indication. That's all I have to go off, which I believe means around 4 weeks?
I have done a self referral to my local maternity service and will be phoning the doctor tomorrow to get a blood test to confirm. I have also organised a scan for middle of March which should hopefully be around 7 weeks! So I guess time will tell! I just am in total shock and disbelief 😯
