For both of my previous pregnancy`s they refused to use anything but my last period date. My ultrasound date ended up being correct both times, they even let me go two weeks over due with my last one who ended up being 10lbs 12oz. This time I was breastfeeding when I got pregnant so I didn`t ahve a last period date, so now I get my way and everyone will be using the ultrasound date. It doesent make sence to me to use the last period date since they don`t know when after it you got pregnant, and in ultrasound they can see exactly what stage of development the baby is at ^_^

No my second baby was bigger but the dr. told me every one was a different weight so they almost never change a due date.

My date was changed from jan23 to Feb2 :) that was changed at my 21 week ultrasound.

Around this time its common for your due date to change, however it becomes more in-correct at this time. The time its more correct is around 6-12 weeks. If you dont remeber your last LMP doctors suggest you use the first due date given during the 6-12 week window.

My doc wouldn`t move your due date after the 12 week sonagram. After that it is harder to tell.

I had an U/S at 6 weeks, that was my due date. I had another one @ 18 weeks and measured due date 7 days sooner, but we kept the first due date because the eariler the U/S, the more accurate the date. THANK GOODNESS because she came 4 days overdue, just a big baby- 9lbs. (but if we had moved my due date that would have been 11 days overdue!) I say, keep in your mind the farthest due date so that you don`t get your hopes up that baby will be here earlier. In the end 1 day is an eternity!

mine was a bit earlier like 9 weeks and it changed mine. My midwife said it will only change if its 8 days or more different with the grown rate of the fetus.

Ive only gotten one ultrasound and that was at 6 weeks. Im hoping maybe they would change it too sooner.

  1. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  2. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  3. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  4. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  5. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  6. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  7. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
  8. MODS ~ please help me in monitoring the photo pages and other pages. Horrific porn was posted in photos sections and they need to be deleted as soon as they are seen. I reported it to Laura also. TX!!
  9. my 4 yr old has 3 planter warts on his foot,.. any home remedies gals or is this a dr visit?
  10. ok ladies, sry its long but i really need some advice, a year ago my 5 yr old brother was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, over the last year my mom has had a hard time dealing with his diagnosis because there is no cure and all she can do is give him 5 insulin shots a day to keep him alive, she looks at it like march 13th 2011 was the death of her healthy little boy and she woke up with this sick child, well i always tell her she needs to go to counseling to learn how to cope with this but lately i`m more worried about my baby brother, he came home the other day from kindergarten and had a picture of a red headed boy with a knife, 3 people under the ground dead and another one on top of the ground covered in blood, he recently grabbed one of my 15 yr old brother`s pocket knives out and started swinging it at my older brother because they were fighting, and then he told my mother he wanted to be a serial killer when he grows up! he has said before that he wishes he would die, that he didn`t want to wake up the next morning,.....
