Changed you due date?

Question

I went in for my anatomy scan today (18+1) and baby was measuring 18+6, so almost a full week ahead. I'm debating if I should change my due date on Glow and my other apps to reflect her actual measurements or just keep it the same. 
Any thoughts or opinions?

Answer

My dr only changes the date if it's more than 7 days difference.

Answer

Only change the due date if your doctor says to.

Answer

No it means your baby could be slightly big or in some cases smaller than what they should be for the number of weeks they are. I began to measure three weeks ahead at around 33 weeks and got a growth scan at around 36 weeks baby was only a little bigger than most babies of the same amount of weeks. I am now 41 weeks and patiently waiting for our baby girl. Most of the time it means nothing what so ever and doesn't mean you will deliver early

Answer

No. Don't change anything. Measuring ahead or behind doesn't mean much and it doesn't change your due date. For instance I measured almost 4 weeks behind for half my pregnancy. My SIL measured a week ahead her entire pregnancy. We both delivered our babies at 39w5d. Everyone measures different. We don't all grow the same way and neither do the babies we carry.

Answer

stick with the due date they gave you unless told otherwise. at my daughter's anatomy scan I was 20w 4d but she measured 20w exactly and then she came 4 days early. babies grow at different rates one week she will be behind then the next ahead.

Answer

After the first trimester babies grow at different rates. Your due date will still be the same.

Answer

My ob dated me at 7w6d and said my due date won't change from there.
