Anyone had their date change at 12 weeks scan?
I used my last period and also fully tracked ovulation, I had a due date Oct 10.
In my 12 week scan they said Oct 15
Now I don’t know which to use as I know the 12 week scan can place things wrong due to the tiniest millimetre off measurement
What did others go by and what was accurate?
Second baby here!

If your OB changed your due date, I would go with that. If it’s just the ultrasound tech tho and your OB hasn’t gone over your ultrasound scan yet to confirm any date change, I wouldn’t.
I measured 4-5 days off and ultimately we didn’t change my due date.
Most places don’t change the date unless the measurements are off by 10 days or more

At the 12week scan, thats the "due date" they'll use throughout your pregnancy now. Best to stick with that to avoid confusion

They’re likely both wrong but the 12 weeks scan will be less wrong. Only about 4% to 5% of babies are born on their due date. It’s more of a rough window.

My initial date based on my last period was 10th March, they then moved it back to March 5th at the dating scan.
I had to be induced and little one arrive March 18th. So if they've given you a later date, I'd say thats better because your baby is given more time to come on their own without being pressured into induction.
