Hallow Dear,
Let me congratulate you for the pregnancy.
To find out the duration of your pregnancy when you are not sure about the date of your last menstrual period, you have following easy options:
1. Report to an Obstetrician. By clinical examination, he/she can estimate the duration of your pregnancy.
2. Get ultrasonography done. By the size of baby, period of gestation (age of the baby) can be concluded.
In any method, there is variation by a week or so, which does not matter for management of pregnancy.
The delivery may take place anywhere between three weeks earlier to one week later than estimated due date of delivery.
I hope this helps you.
