Baby growing

My ultrasound when I was 21 weeks said baby was 6 days ahead in growth went to see my obgyn other day and he said 6 days isn’t to much of a difference my due date is still the same Jan 23. He measured me by tape measure and says I’m measuring 30 which then I was 27 weeks 5 days he said when I see him next and I still am measuring big than we will do another ultrasound to see exactly the size of baby Incase of needing a c section or not. Has anyone have this happen before? My first child was almost 8 lb my second was 7 lbs

My son was measuring 2 weeks ahead from about 18 weeks. He was born naturally at 40+3 weighing just under 8.5 pounds.

Ultrasound measurements are not accurate... with my four babies they have said they were all Ava rage size babies meaning 7lbs or so... wrong.... my smallest was 8lbs8oz and biggest was 9lbs 4oz. So this time I’m expecting to have a big baby again but because of my history of big babies.

My son was always measuring 2weeks ahead so they changed my due date but I had to get a c-section at 39w according to my original due date because he was breech. He weighed 8lbs. From what I've read the measurements on the ultrasound are always super accurate

Actually as baby gets bigger the ultrasounds get less accurate.
