Due Date?

Question

Hey y’all!
I can’t get an appt with my doc to confirm my preg/find out due date until the week after Thanksgiving.
My question: Are the online due date calculators somewhat accurate?
If they are, I’ll be having a July 2018 baby.
Just wondering if anyone had compared what the calculator told you vs. what their doctor told you.
Thank you in advance! ❤️

Answer

Doctors use the same calculator 👍🏻 unless you know the exact day you conceived they will go by the first day of your last period.

Answer

They will use the last day of your missed period but this will probably change slightly at your first scan

Answer

My dr goes by the first day of your last period, it's only changed if the ultrasound shows a discrepancy of a week or more. That's pretty rare unless your cycles aren't regular or are longer than 30 days.

Answer

The calculator online told me June 15, 2017. I went and it was confirmed 06/13/2017. Got my first ultrasound and they changed my due date to 6/23/2017. Ended up having him on 06/11/2017 when my water broke. So I say the dr was off with the ultrasound due date lol
