Measuring ahead=early delivery!?

Question

Has anyone else measured 12 days ahead and delivered 2weeks earlier than due date or somewhere around there? I am due June 10 and measuring 12 days ahead- hoping end of May!

Answer

Measured several weeks ahead with my first 3 kiddos and every single one was late by 3-5 days 4 measured perfect and was 14 days late. 5 was a fluke, always measured big, water broke 3 days before due date but no labor started so had to be induced. This one is measuring big but I'm fully expecting to watch my due date come and go with no baby lol. It's all in the woman and how your body works. My SIL just had her first, a tiny 6lb 3oz baby born 11 days early, so size does not matter ladies... it's all about how your body works.

The way I like to think about it that keeps me sane in the end is, expect your due date to sail by and if baby comes sooner you get a nice surprise 😊

Answer

It does not mean early delivery. If it did I would have had my big friendly baby at 33 weeks! It's weird to see 44 weeks on the ultra sound machine....

Answer

My last child
Measured ahead the entire
Pregnancy and I went 5 days late (induced).
This time the baby is measuring 2 weeks ahead but I have GD, so I may or may not
End up getting induced early.

Answer

I was measuring almost four weeks ahead with my third. Had to be induced at 38 weeks for medical reasons but if I hadn't of been induced they would of let my body do it itself, but no it doesn't always mean early delivery. Could be a lot of amniotic fluid etc

Answer

I have measured ahead twice, and my dr still goes off of my original due date because it is full term from my last menstrual period. Babies have growth spurts through gestation. It's normal.
