The stated age of seven and a half weeks is correct and is measured from the time of fertilization, not the first day of the last menstrual period. This is the age at which the hands first meet in the midline as shown. If this embryo were any older, say eight weeks, the eyelids would be covering the surface of the eye almost completely. By eight weeks and two or three days, the eyelids would be completely fused and the amazing view of the eye seen here would not be possible.
ok im confused then....I thought Im 9 weeks pregnant because of the due date calculator i used online....October 8th was the first day of my last MP...how long am I really then? just a guess?
you are 9 weeks preg, according to doctors. The count since ur LMP. the baby is only 7 weeks tho. Upon fertilization, you are technically concidered 2 weeks preg already.
So why not put 9 1/2 weeks? Otherwise it's just confusing!

@Metalann82 Cuz, If they took video at 2 Weeks LMP there would be nothing in there. It's got to be from Fertilization.
