EDD

HI all, yesterday we went in for our first ultrasound and I was expecting the doc to say that I was about 12 weeks along. He said by the scan I was only 9.5 weeks. If I go by this it means my pregnancy test said I was positive 2 weeks before I was actually positive. Has anyone else had this happen? I'm not sure who's due date I should go by. The one I worked out was mid Nov but the docs is late nov to early Dec. So confused!!! Also I read somewhere that if bubs heartrate is faster than average it means it's a girl, has anyone else heard of this? We've decided to do a little experimenting as we're not gonna find out the sex this time, so if anyone has any old wives tales about how to find out the gender I'm open to them all. Thanks everyone.

Hi there! If your test said u where positive than you where! Congrats!!!! The ultrasound just goes by the size of the baby and that could be like me that my baby grow fast very early and then when it came to having her she was 9 weeks early and very small as her growth slowed right down. If i had just gone by my preg kit she would of worked out 2 days late but the hospital knew better lol so they thought. You know best and if you are worried next ultra sound will be more to date. The reason i didnt get the results of second ultrasound is bec i had to change hospitals and records got lost so the hospital just went from the very first one i did. Well congrats again and good luck!

I had very similar thing with my third pregnancy. the hospital insisted I was so pregnant when i knew my dates. Trust their science or your body? mmmmmmmmmm it doesn't really matter as long as all is okay. bear in mind if they start talk of inducing etc or babies too big/too small otherwise let them have their machines. I know when my baby was conceived...my husband was home! Trust your body.

How far along could you have been when you took the test? I found out I was pregnant just 2 weeks after falling pregnant.  So at what stage did you take the test? Is it possible that you were only a week or 2 pregnant at the time and thought you were further along?

Hi I was about 2 weeks along when I did the test which is why I assumed I was 3 months but according to the doc I couldn't have been pregnant then because he said it would have happened 2 weeks after I did the test. I'm very confused lol

Well, you can't have a positive result before you fall pregnant. Just go by what you are thinking, and expect the baby to arrive in November :)

Good luck with the pregnancy
