I feel so dumb

I have had so much going on lately..buying a house, working full time, planning my wedding. I have no idea when my last period was. I took a pregnancy test last Monday bc I couldn't remember when my last period was and it was very faintly positive but by the end of the week the line was darker. I'm on birth control but with everything going on I have missed a few pills here and there. I feel so dumb because I honestly don't know when my last period was..I think it was around the mid to end of October but will the doctor be able to figure out how far along I am? My appt is Jan 4.

Yup, Dr. will measure the fetus the top of head to rump and that measurement will give a good estimation of the babies age. Congrats!

Ultrasound can be used to determine gestational age and due date.
