No idea how far along I am!

So I posted last week about not having periods for years and wondering how long it might take to get pregnant...but turns out I already am! Only came off the pill on 17th April so big shock! Trouble is, I don’t have any LMP date to go by to find out how far along I am and can only get an appointment with the doctor next week. Does anyone know a good way to find out this early? I’m feeling really nauseous and my boobs are killing me!

Hi, congratulation on your pregnancy. Unfortunately you won’t be able to confirm how far you are until you have your fist scan, however the further you would be is 6 weeks, but this to count from the day you stopped your pills but it might be later if your body took a little longer to ovulate. When you have your scan they will be able to give you better estimate by measuring the baby.

You could take a ClearBlue weeks indicator test to give some sort of idea.
