I've checked some sites out and some say I'm 4 weeks and some say I'm 5 weeks how do I know for sure. My last period was April 20th. Does anyone know?

Go to the doctors and have an ultrasound.

Please I would advise you to definately go to the Doctors and have an official ultrasound. Sometimes your LMP may not be able to give you the most accurate date. So go to the doctors you would rather be safe than sorry.

Well I got a blood test yesterday and I have to get another one tomorrow. Then he is going to schedule an ultrasound for 6 weeks. So only a few more weeks.

Unless you happened to diarise the night you got it on with hubby, it won't be certain for a little while longer when an ultrasound takes measurements and can give an approx time. Even then they say there's a fuzzy 2 week period. That's why they say a pregnancy term is 38 - 40 weeks.
Who ever said 9 months is a liar. For me 40 weeks is 10 months and mine went over by another 7 days after that!
No wonder I'd had enough by then. It was an extra blinkin month!
