September baby may become October baby!?

Question

I had my appointment today to get the results on my sugar glucose test and my doctor measured my daughter at 28 weeks instead of 31. He had me go down to the labs to run blood work and to return in 2 weeks. Hopefully then to discuss whether or not I'll be having her on my original due date or later and to set up a ultrasound. Has anyone else measured behind and still delivered on their original said due date? This is my third pregnancy and first baby that has not measured on time.

Answer

In my opinion it’s all a guessing game. My sons original due date was August 10th, then it was changed to August 18th. I measured behind 2-3 weeks my entire pregnancy and he was a week late. I was also told, the morning I went into labor, by ultrasound he was 7 lbs and my midwife feeling him said 6 and he came out at 9.

Answer

My OB told me my belly was measuring behind the entire time, and by 36 weeks she was concerned enough to set up an ultrasound. My son measured normally on the ultrasound, but he was wedged into my pelvis. I’m quite tall and thin so I never had a big belly, which is another reason I was measuring behind. My son came on his own at 39+5. My sister is even taller than me and she’s measured behind with all of her kids. They were all born within 2 days of their due date, except for her 4th baby who was 2 weeks late.
