Hi, I'm wondering how can I work out how many weeks I am please. Don't have nhs scan until end of January, thinking of booking an early scan but it says I must be 7 weeks. I have no clue how to work it out. Can anyone help? Thanks

It’s counted from the first day of your last period.

When was you last period?

Are you booking a private scan? Is it near to you? (Sorry, curious about this) is it expensive? Hope you don’t mind me asking.

Use the pregnancy due date calculator on the NHS website

@ColinRobinsonsfamiliar in my area (Glasgow Scotland), it's approx 60£ for early viability scans. More for gender scans later on

@ColinRobinsonsfamiliar as @IWillBeWaxingAnOwl said, as I'm also in Glasgow it is about £60 most of them you need to be over 6/7 weeks. Thinking of booking one for the reassurance but not sure if I will then become obsessed with booking extra scans 😂 so might wait until my nhs scan, not sure what to do

@ColinRobinsonsfamiliar also my last period was at the end of October, which makes me roughly 5 weeks

@OrcaBlondie thank you will have a look just to double check. Think I'm only about 5 weeks just now
