Due date?

Question

Based on my last period my due date would be December 20 but all the ultrasounds I had don't match with the date, the first one that I had at 6 weeks showed due date on December 24, at 9 weeks December 26. Now I'm 21 weeks and had an ultrasound few days ago showing due date on December 23. My Doctor never changed my due date And I know I shouldn't trust the second trimester dating but I was off few days since the very beginning. What you think? What's your experience?

Answer

They generally don't change the due date unless it is more than 6 days different at the initial ultrasound. I'm also due the 20th!!

Answer

My date based on my LMP was Nov 23 but at my first two ultrasounds I measured for Dec 9 so we have stuck with that even though she has been 5 days to a week ahead since. I'm just figuring sometime in between there!

Answer

My due date was initially December 9 based on menstrual cycle. At my first ultrasound they changed it to December 20 and now he is measuring ahead. I'm just expecting the baby somewhere between the two at this point lol

Answer

I have fluctuated due dates every time. We did IVF so we know exactly when things happened yet the baby is growing in little spurts resulting in lots of changing dates. My OB said that is normal and with all the monitoring when we get towards the end, they will have a better idea of when exactly the baby is coming. He said it all depends on the growth spurt at the time the ultrasound is done. Don't stress over it and enjoy growing your baby!

Answer

The dates are close that's why. My baby has always measured 4 days ahead for the last 4 ultrasounds but we're still basing on my lmp
