Default Irregular cycles - How many weeks along am I?

I have really irregular cycles - anywhere from 35 days to 49 days - so I can't use any of the due-date calculators. My last period was 11 June, and I know for certain that I conceived between 7th July and 14th July on our honeymoon.
I had a blood test done on 29th July and HCG levels said I was approx 2 weeks pregnant (foetal age). So going by that, I probably conceived on 14th July and the foetus is now 3 weeks and 3 days old - even though my cycles are weird, do I tack on another 2 weeks to take into account the 1st day of my last period and the week of conception = 5 weeks pregnant? Will I be due around 5th April 2008?
When people say they are 6 weeks pregnant or however pregnant they are - are they referring to the age of the foetus or are they adding on the extra two weeks?
