Answer If you had a positive pregnancy test on June 27, you must have conceived two weeks before then. HOwever, you claim that you had a period on May 17 and again on June 16, which is impossible. I would take a blood test for pregnancy, twice, 48 hours apart. If there is a doubling of the results, it indicates a viable pregnancy. If there is a halving of the results in 48 hours, it indicates a miscarriage. If you are, indeed, pregnant it is too early for a sonogram to show anything until 6 weeks gestational age (6 weeks from your last period).
