Date confusion

I have a 6 week scan tomorrow just for reassurance. I understand I won't see much but it's confirmation I'm seeking more than anything. So I've filled out a pre appointment questionnaire online and when I write down my last menstrual period- 20th april, and my cycle length (34 days), their website works me out to only be 5 weeks+2 pregnant 😞 I've already messaged them expressing my concern that I don't want to travel 55 miles to be turned away if I'm only 5 weeks. Just wanted to double check with you all if we have got it right. Am I 5+2 or 6+2? Cos 3 other apps say I'm 6 weeks.

Can anyone help?

Do you know your ovulation date?

Roughly, maybe you were using opk's?

So I did an opk on the 3rd and got a blazing positive. So I worked out i ovulated on the 4th or 5th ❤️

If they also go off LMP then you're 5weeks2days, OP. I'd give them a call, you won't want to waste a trip and honestly, a scan at 5,2 is a bit early anyway.
