Post by Adey »

Hi all,<br>I had EC on April 21st/ET April 23rd and am supposed to test on weds 7th of May. I've done loads of tests and am thrilled to say i'm pregnant!! If result on hpt showed up on day 10 after et is this really early? Could that indicate twins?<br> I am also abit confused about how pregnant i am since EC was exactly 2 weeks ago today does that make me 2 weeks pregnant but if i go back to last AF i'm 4 weeks and 5 days??<br>I'm going for a scan in 2 weeks but some of you on here seem to be having them in week 6/7. What should they see this early?<br>Sorry lots of questions but obviously i'm a novice!<br>Any advice would be appreciated<br>love Adey xxx

Hi Adey<br><br>Congratulations and welcome to this side!!<br><br>You need to add 2 weeks from the date of EC/ET. ie. if your test tomorrow is 2 weeks after ET, then you are 4 weeks pregnant. Hope that makes sense!<br><br>I had my first scan at 6 weeks and could make out 2 sacs (dark blobs) and 2 tiny little pulses that are heartbeats. At 8 weeks,you can just about see the shape of an embryo in the sacs.<br><br>Good luck with everything and congratulations again!<br><br>Helen xx
