Help me figure out my EDD

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
Here's the situation: I got pregnant sometime in the first half of January, but I really don't know when. My last "period" had lasted over a month -- crazy weird post-miscarriage bleeding which the hospital-based midwife's office insisted was nothing to be concerned about.

Bleeding tapered off in the first few days of the new year. Around the same time, I was having some fertile mucous. I don't remember when we DTD -- it was a few times over the course of the first few weeks of the month.

I had a very faint + on a HPT on January 20th, with first morning urine (but I had probably gotten up to pee in the middle of the night). On the 23rd, I had a strong line in the afternoon. The tests I am using are supposed to detect 20mIU hCG in urine.

So, what's my EDD? I'm figuring late September or early October, but I'm going 'round and 'round in circles within about a 2-week window. That 2 weeks could make a big difference later on if I don't get the dates right. I hope to get a dating ultrasound, but in the meantime I'm kind of driving myself crazy with this question. My first appointment is at the end of this month.

TIA!

You will likely get a dating ultrasound... with the info you gave there is NO WAY we could possibly even narrow it down to a week... considering some women get faint positives at 6dpo (including myself with DD) and some women get faint positives at 13dpo (including myself with this one) or even later!

so the dating ultrasound will be very necessary.
