Weeks are counted from the first day of your last period, so conception was about 2 weeks into "week 1". Your dating scan may move the date a little; go by the scan once you have it.

Bleeding, tummy pain, a bad headache, blurred vision, fluid leaking or your baby moving less: call your maternity unit or midwife straight away, any time of day. In an emergency call 999.
