Hello,
If you are pregnant, an ultrasound can determine the pregnancy age and the possible time of conception so it will be able to determine if you conceived in June or in August.
On the other hand, because you had negative pregnancy tests and it is a while you are not having your periods, it may be advisable for you to have a visit with your doctor. A gynecological visit is needed and possibly the doctor may ask for some blood tests as well (hormone check- TSH, prolactin, progesterone, estrogen, testosterone, DHEAS, etc)
I hope this answers your query. I remain at your disposal in case further medical assistance is needed.
