If you have the incorrect ovulation date, yes, the HCG would show higher than average for your gestation. If you O'd before you think you did, you'll just be measuring further along. No worries if that's the case.

And the tri was just random. Lighting striking.

Oh I can't wait until that appointment! I know when I O'd - it was CD 12, it was just earlier than I usually do so it kinda threw everything off for me lol! So then is there any way to figure out how far along I am based on when I O'd or do I still just go by LMP??

Have you tried googling for a pregnancy calculator based on O date? How do you "know" when you ovulated?

[kellbell827]

I was charting BBT and keeping track of CM pretty closely. I got my first + OPK on CD 10 and then my temp dipped and I had a spike on CD 13. I guess it's possible that I O'd earlier, like on CD 11.

It's just a best guess going by symptoms but just a day shouldn't mean a huge difference in HCG but it can definitely make a difference this early.

I am waiting to call to get my second level. I went this morning and the tech told me it should be ready after 2:00 pm. I have another hour or so!! Ok so according to the due date calculator that I found, I would be about 5 weeks now. So what can I realistically expect at the ultrasound? A heartbeat maybe?

[nuthinbutpink]

No. Definitely not. 6 weeks is the earliest to see a heartbeat. They are
