Pregnancy calculator -Accurate?

Based on my last period the pregnancy calculator says I'm 8 weeks pregnant. Can't I be less weeks pregnant? My last period was Oct 12. Please help me understand how long I may be?

If that was the date of your last period you would be 8 weeks 3 days pregnant. Even if you are less a ultrasound will show something as early as 5 weeks. I seen your post earlier about the ultrasound you had with an empty sack and your hcg not doubling..I'm sorry but just try to stay positive and get your hcg checked again in a few more days. Good luck!

Yes not all women ovulate based off of the 28 day calculation....I actually ovulated a week later..which made me a week behind the pregnancy calculator
