Did doctors ever confuse you with your pregnancy weeks?!

Question

Hi! So I just been so confused. I thought I was 20 weeks pregnant that’s what my OBGYN was going off based off my last menstrual cycle. I got admitted to the hospital last bight and they did an ultrasound to check on my baby & they said I was 2 weeks ahead based off the size of my baby! Meaning I’m 22 weeks. My OBGYN did my anatomy scan and never mentioned me being 22 weeks.

Answer

No baby can measure a little different sometimes.  You go off your dating of your first ultrasound which would be that you're 20 weeks.

Answer

Baby’s measurements can vary. My sons head was two weeks ahead, and his body 2 weeks behind what was the expected due date. Go by the 20 weeks, expected due date

Answer

Baby can measure big, it does not change your due date.

Answer

After the first trimester growth rate can vary. You're still 20 weeks even if your baby is bigger than average at this stage.
