First timer

Firstly, congratulations everyone! I got my first set of positive tests after 16 months of trying, 3 months after surgery for my Endometriosis! Totally anxious as expected. My cycle is super irregular. LMP 24th Jan, ovulated around 25th/26th Feb, Clear blue says 2-3 weeks. I'm guessing I'm 4 weeks roughly?!
