Consistently a week behind since 20 week ultrasound?

Question

My due date is June 1 but today at my ultrasound they said she is measuring a little over a week behind and the ultrasound showed my due date at June 10. Does this matter? Is she just small or will I likely go past my due date.

Answer

Measurements can be off up or down by 2 wks and alot of this stuff is just educated guesses anyway. It's not easy to get an exact due date unless you tracked ovulation with test strips very closely. I wouldn't worry. Unless your Drs say they need to keep a close eye on the size everything should be fine.

Answer

Try not to worry! Sometimes the babies find hiding spots and measurements are completely off. I always measured 3-4wks behind with my first. They said she would be 4-5lbs... she was born at 40wks and a full 8lbs! Everyone was surprised. I’m already measuring behind with this pregnancy and I’m not worried about it at all. There must be some
Secret compartment in there!
