Guys help. At my anatomy scan the ultrasound tech said my due date looked like August 13th, I went to my dr appointment this morning and my dr said “due date didn’t change its whatever I put in my computer, August 20th or 21st one of those” I’m SO CONFUSED could the August 13th date have been based off of how big the baby is measuring?

You could have the baby earlier than what your doctor is saying due to your babies size and measurements but it’s all a waiting game baby will come when they want

Stick with the original due date. My son was measuring a week ahead on all of his ultrasounds. My due date was April 13 and he kept measuring April 6. I thought for sure he’d come early but nope I went into labor on April 13. Ultrasounds are just estimates, baby will come when ready.

So go with the 20th-21st? So how do I figure out exactly how far along I am by that due date? Cause it’s been all over 🤦🏼♀️

Also, since the tech said August 13th does that mean she’s measuring ahead or behind?

@bubbys.mommy, yes stick with the 20th as your due date. If the ultrasound is saying Aug 13 then that means she’s measuring ahead. That’s common and really doesn’t mean anything. Ultrasounds are just estimates and that’s why your doctor said your due date hasn’t changed.
