Who do you trust for EDD? Sono or Dr?
So my most recent sono said I was 11weeks 3 days but according to the Dr. I am 9weeks 2 days. (based on LMP). I believe Im more 11weeks range because of when I ovulated. The sono would be most correct right?

Yes, sono is more accurate than LMP, because LMP is just an estimate (they base it on a 28 day cycle, which not everyone has). Sono measures the actual baby's size so that is the one to go by. When I first went to the doc this time around, my EDD's based on LMP and sono were a week and a half apart.

Re: Who do you trust for EDD? Sono or Dr?
The first sono generally around 8 weeks is the most accurate. My dr adjusted me EDD both times based on this sono (although mine were pretty darn close)
After the first tri the sono and your EDD may vary based on how your child grows. In my case both my boys were always 10 days or more ahead of their EDD but the EDD was never adjusted. DS1 was delivered via c/s on his EDD and DS2 was c/s 1 week prior to his EDD.
