Anyone else unsure of due date?

Question

To me, my due date is sort of like a moving target. According to Glow, I'm due around the 15th, my OB is estimating the 19th, but found my baby measuring bigger than average at the 20th week scan. Other apps say I'm due around August 10th. Do you just stick with the date that your OB gives you? I'm around 26 weeks.

Answer

I go with my OBs date. Plus, it's just an approximate date, babies are historically bad with keeping a schedule.

Answer

Yes I was told I was due on August 16 then when I got my ultrasound they told me my baby was measuring a week older and that my due date was on August 9 so I'm a bit confused too but as longest my baby comes healthy that's all that matters

Answer

My dd based on my LMP is July 22, the dd my OB gave me is August 5, in every ultrasound she measured about three days bigger so that would make it August 2, Im going with what my OB says.

Answer

The date you received during a dating/NT ultrasound, usually around 10-14 weeks, is the most accurate. 
Most babies grow at a set rate and the length measurements taken then are more representative of how far along you are.

By the time you get to 20+ weeks, they start fattening up and growing at different rates (genetics, diet differences, etc) so it shouldn't be used to change or alter your date. You may just have a baby on the bigger size, it doesn't mean he/she is further along in development.

Answer

A due date is +/- 2 weeks, so... 
Based on the date of my last period, I'm due 8/20. At my first scan baby measured 8/26, but the tech said that since it wasn't off by more than 10 days they stayed with LMP.

Answer

Yeah same here OB told me August 19 and then later says the 16th but doesn't wanna change it. And I go in to get 3d/4d ultrasound and tell me his belly measurements say the 3rd and his little head says the 10th so I'm all over the place as well.
