Guess based on your last period. The first day of your last period is the first day of pregnancy. Yes that means 2 weeks are automatically added on. Try to get an ultrasound between 7-9 weeks, it's most accurate then.
Ask your Dr. for a blood test, the HCG levels also indicate how far along you are. A regular Dr. knows the basics, but get yourself a midwife or ob-gyn
If your parents will be respectful and not tell the world, go ahead and tell them now. If they won't be supportive or you and DH want to keep your own little secret for a bit then wait a few weeks.

TAKE YOU PRENATALS!

B'shaa Tovah!

unless you know when you ovulated, go by the date of your last period.

Go to the doctor, get a blood test. If your hormones levels are high enough they can do an ultra sound and estimate how many weeks you are.
