Has anyone’s due date changed more than once?

Question

My LMP puts me at 8 weeks 4 days. 
My first ultrasound makes me 7 weeks 5 days. (First due date 2/26 and second due date is 3/4) 
So basically it was 6 days behind. 
I go back to the doctor on Friday and I was wondering if it may change again. Like maybe baby caught back up or may be behind again? What was your experience?

Answer

Yes absolutely! I realized that it’s not actually that hard to get an inaccurate due date from an ultrasound. 
My first scan the baby was measuring a week behind based on my lmp. No biggie, I figured I ovulated a little late. My next scan put the due date back another day. I was starting to worry. My doc kept saying not to worry about it, the due date would prob change anyway. 
My third scan, the first the measurement put the due date back two more days, putting me at 9w4d. Now I’m really worried baby isn’t growing well. But then my doctor was like, “don’t worry about that, baby is probably just at a weird angle. Here I will try to get it to move and try again.” So she moved the wand around a bit on my stomach and baby woke up and started moving. At which point she was able to get a full side view. Now baby measured 11w1d! Just her angle changed the due date by a week and a half!
Now my due date lines up a little better with my lmp. Sometimes I think the docs rush through it since they know better than us what measurements would be truly unusual. As long as baby’s heart is beating I wouldn’t worry too much about the due date yet.

Answer

I am measuring a week ahead but they didn’t change mine.they said if it’s still the same when I am 30 and more we will see it then..

Answer

Based off LMP my due date was 2-14
First ultrasound changed it to 3-4 
And the most recent ultrasound changed it to 2-27
Lol mine is all over the place but baby is doing well 🥰

Answer

That’s what happened to me! Based on my LMP my EDD is 2/26. But when I had my first ultrasound last week even though my doctor said I was measuring on time, my printout said 7 weeks 3 days and an EDD of 3/1. We’ll see what happens when I go back in a few weeks!

Answer

When I got pregnant with my son this happened. Based on my LMP I was due September 8th. Based on the ultrasound I was due 6 days later on September 14th.

Answer

LMP is only used til you have a dating ultrasound and get your official due date. They usually don’t change it again unless it’s over a week difference. It’s arbitrary really, don’t focus too much on the date. My first baby was born 10 days early. My sister had to be induced at 41.5 weeks. 5% of babies are born on their due dates.

Answer

Basically the opposite happen to me with my son. I was due March 27 but then with the scan I was due the 20th. But I gave birth February 28th so be prepared for anything.
