due dates wrong?

-Originally worked out that my due date was supposed to be 29th of May!
-Had our 12 week scan and baby girl was measuring 8 weeks, had a repeat 12 week scan when she should have measured 12 weeks and she was measuring at 14 weeks and then at our 20 week scan she was measuring almost 23 weeks.
-NHS changed our due date to 30th of June as her scans were dating all over the place.
-anyways fast forward to 2 weeks ago, (we were by their due date 32 weeks, but by our due date 36 weeks) we went for a routine growth scan as had a emergency c section last pregnancy. Baby was measuring 37+5 and has extra fluid around her.
-had a repeat glucose tolerance test, came back absolutely normal.

Could it be that our original due date was right as her measurements basically perfectly align with that (meaning we’re due in 10 days) or could it be that she’s just a big baby?
She was measuring 5lbs7oz at “nhs 32 weeks”

-worth adding that if we’re going by our date we’re 38 +6 atm and I’ve been having on and off contractions for the past 6 days but hospital don’t want to know unless my waters break because by their date we’re only 34 + 2🤦🏽‍♀️

Natural birth

How long from 10 cm dilated to when the baby is actually born based on experience? I know everyone is different

Different scar placements

Looking at photos people have shared of their c-section scars, I can see lots of you have low scars that are just under the public hair line. Mine is way higher than that.

Does anyone know why they can be at different levels and if it means anything for future pregnancies and c-sections?

Pregnancy 12 months post C-section

Does anyone have any experience getting pregnant 12 months after a c-section? My deliveries will be 20 months apart, but I am still nervous.

Due date change at anatomy scan??

Has had their due date updated when they went for their anatomy scan? I had a level 2 anatomy scan this morning and they moved my due date up a whole week!! He's looking perfect so I am not worried, just never heard of someone having their due date updated mid pregnancy!

If your partner is useless, was he like this pre baby, or only since the baby arrived?

I always see women posting about how useless their men are, wether that’s around the house with tidyness, doing things to make them feel loved and supported, or how they are with the kids, and I always think… was they like this pre baby? Or did they suddenly become useless after the child arrived?

After growth scans telling me she was predicted to be 97th centile I opted for induction and she was born 38+4, they were 100% right 8lb 7oz of this little chunk on 97th centile!
