Measuring ahead

At my 13 w 3 day scan the tech said I was measuring at 14 weeks. Anyone else have this issue?

It’s happened to me twice! I went to the er measuring 12 weeks and 3 days but it turns out I was 12 weeks 5 day after the ultrasound. Then I went back last week due to some bleeding and was supposed to be 14 weeks and it turns out I was 14 weeks and 3 days!

I was 12w5d and my baby is measuring at 13w so 2 days ahead of me yesterday at my ultrasound. I will be 13 weeks tomorrow.

I was measuring 3 days ahead at my 10 week scan! I have my 12 week on Friday and can’t wait to see how I’m measuring now!

Do y’all think it’s an issue? Or a sign of any abnormalities? My tech said it’s normal but I’m an over thinker

It's normal.

mine said the same thing and I had the same feeling but what eased me was knowing they’d tell me if anything was a negative abnormality whereas ours could just be growing a little bigger faster. I know for a fact when I got pregnant but the measurements are off.

So when this happens does your due date change? I’m curious to know.

mine did. My original due date was April 14th and now it’s April 9th. Your due date may change a few times while you’re pregnant what I’ve been told and it’s normal!

when mine was off 3 days, they said that was normal margin and they didn’t change the “official” due date. Based on the measurement I’m 4/28 but based on dates I’m 5/1

my mfm dose not like it when the ultrasound techs change the due date so mine stayed the same. Based off the dates I am due 4/24 but based off my measurements my due date is 4/22. But my due date is staying the same so 4/24.

I've wondered if the baby is measuring bigger than the due date because they're going to be a tall baby? I measured 4 days ahead last time and they said they won't change my due date unless the baby measures 1 to 2 weeks ahead and that it's normal to measure ahead by a few days

My due date is 4/22! But I think the date 4/24/24 looks so cool lol

I did my first ultrasound at 12 weeks on the dot. They had baby measuring at 12w4d.
Makes sense for it to be off by a couple days since the estimated due date is based on our menstrual cycle, but the actual conception/ovulation date may not be known.

it’s normal. My twins are measuring 5 and 6 days ahead and I literally tracked ovulation so I know the 48 hour period they were conceived. I also got the genetic testing and they came back perfect. Don’t stress 💖

MINE IS APRIL 9th!!!!!

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
