confused about how many weeks i am!!

Hi all, im 21 pregnant for the first time!!

I did a 2tests which said i was not pregnant, a week later i did another two which said i was 2-3 weeks pregnant, if that isnt confusing enough i went to the doctors who said based on my last period date being 3rd october she said i was about 6 weeks after getting a great deal of cramps 4days later i was taken to hospital for a scan to check for eptopic pregnancy and they said there was no sign of pregancy in the womb or ovarys and arranged for more blood tests to be taken they have been done and now i am above 1500 hormone level they can scan again... is it normal at 6weeks(doc time)  to have no sign of pregnancy or could it be i am  earlier than 6weeks??? will they be able to confirm the date of conception at my scan next week if i am this early??? i am so confused!!!

Well depending on what pregnancy test you took to see how far along you are, the one i know of anyway counts from the day of conception so you still have to add on 2 weeks to that date and they are only estimates of how far along you are... so it would be 4-5 weeks if you added on the 2 weeks to that... it is uncommon not to be able to find the pregnancy(depending on equiptment used) but because it is early i hope they plan on further investigating... like continuing to monitor your hCG levels and say go back for an ultrasound in a week or two... in lots of pregnancies the woman dont know what the date of conception was, that is why they try to go by LMP... so they do use the ultrasound to date the pregnancy if the date is unknown and or to confirm the estimated date

I think it is normal to spot in the hours leading up to your period. Maybe your period just decided to start slowly rather than shoot out... IDK But, if you really think your pregnant, take your vitamins for the next week, then take a dollar store test again. BTW, your cravings will only get worst as you get older when your on your cycle, so be careful not to get too fat now, because you'll be kicking yourself in the butt later on. Just because your pregnant is no excuse to over eat either. You should just eat normally. Seriously dude!

I was only concerened about the spotting because I have never spotted before. I called my doctor that sam day and she told me to take a pregnancy test later and if its possitive then id have to come in sooner rather than later. I won't get too fat on me you can tell wen I'm getting big and everyone litterally keeps asking me/.  Could it have been o early to test?
