I am 7 weeks and 6 days pregnant according to my gestational age, and 5 weeks and 6 days pregnant according to fetal age.

Unfortunately there is a possibility that you did fall pregnant 9 weeks ago and that the pregnancy will not progress. It is possible that either the fetus is not developing, or that the fetus has died which usually means the gestational sac will shrink and appear to be not as advanced as you are.
