wrong due date?!

Question

At first based on my when my period ended my due date was Feb 24th then they changed it to March 3rd because she was "smaller than normal" during ultrasound. now at 32 weeks (2nd pregnancy) I just had another ultrasound today and she is at almost 5 pounds and measuring 34weeks 5days but they're still saying March 3rd is my due date. I'm confused, are they right or should it be the 24th?! (also I've been cramping off and on pretty bad & losing mucus plus more than usual the past few days)

Answer

The initial dating scan in pregnancy is the most accurate due date you'll get, even more so than LMP, because it goes off size of gestational sac and you can't predict implantation nor 100% ovulation. My LMP said 6/4 and the dating scan said 6/14. He came 6/13.

Answer

Welcome to the “multiple due dates club”
I would say that they are more than likely shooting for the March 3rd date.
But keep the 2/24 date in mind just in case your baby comes at that time.
Reason why I say this is because my babies tend to go in between the dates given and they always start off smaller in the beginning and then they hit a growth spurt and go from there.
My due dates are 2/4,/26,2/10,2/13 I’m going based on the first only because she is getting bigger and I know my body may more than likely crap out around that time.
It wouldn’t be pregnancy for me if I didn’t have at least 3-4 due dates every single time

Answer

If your cycles were regular you should always go by the FIRST day of your last period. You know your body better than anyone else.
