Had a scan on Friday and was told from the size of the fetus, it was 6 weeks and 2 days and measured 6mm. Do they take this to mean from conception or when they think my last period was??

I am unsure about my last period. I think it was sometime in the last few weeks of October (am very very forgetful but always wear a panty liner just in case ). But the period before that was much shorter than normal.

So am I 6 weeks or should I add another 2 weeks as ovulation is normally 2 weeks later?? Am very confused (mostly attributable to preg hormones I must say!!).

They count it as LMP I'm sure, so you are 6 weeks and 2 days, congratulations

Pregnancy is mesured from the date of your last period - so they mean 6.2 weeks from your last period

OK thanks. Was kinda hoping I was 2 weeks further along, all the quicker to get to week 12!!
