My due date changed.

I'm not annoyed by the change, I'm annoyed it took this long to actually find out that November 13th was never my date to begin with Chat Icon

I switched doctors last month. Today, I had my second appointment with them. The NP walks in and asks if I'm 25 weeks 6 days. I say confused, "No, I'm 26, 2 days". She looks at my chart and says that the doctor has 11/15. I told her I was never made aware of that and it was only my second appointment.

She then looks through my chart from the previous doctor. I learned that all 3 sonos I had taken with the old one had 11/18, 11/17, and 11/16, and the new doctor determined 11/15 based on those predictions, and she apologized for the doctor not informing me of this, he had only noted that a few days ago (so I guess today she was going to tell me).

So I told her that I never even heard of those dates before. We do a sonogram today, and the brain in measuring for 26 weeks, 2 days, but the abdominal is 2 days short, and they go by this. Not a problem, it's only 2 days.

He is 2 pounds on the dot. And, well, of course I have no picture because the second they put the wand over my belly, he immediately covered his face. What a brat!

Re: My due date changed.

The change was so slight that's probably why they didn't bother telling you - a due date means nothing-the baby can come early or late around that time.
I have been measuring ahead or behind at every sonogram, the doc never changed my due date but one sonogram tech said its looking more like January 31st than Feb 2nd but nothing is officially changed. I have had lots of sonograms (due to bleeding ) and the baby has changed size so much taking or adding 2 days to its schedule! I am only 15 weeks now and its changed so much already! If you go by my last period my due date is Jan. 23rd !! but I guess I ovulated later since the baby was not measuring for that date. Due dates are tricky.


Congrats on the baby! Chat Icon

Due dates don't mean much. I was due yesterday....yet I am still pregnant and this little one has been measuring ahead of schedule since the beginning.

Eh-this far along I wouldn't worry about it. I'm surprised they actually changed your EDD, I've really only seen that done early on since at this point things are developing at different rates.

Congrats!

I am surprised they changed your due date for a couple of days.. I'm a few days behind (I knew it because, I used the date I ovulated and dr.'s office uses LMP) and they didn't change mine. Either way its just an estimate, so you can be a week ahead/behind when you give birth.

eta: my LO was so bratty at the last sono.. kept showing me the little booty the whole time and i'm Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
