nutnut - 877 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) my dr. said im due jan 30, but according to me im due jan 24. the dr. said they will measure, but measuring is just "average" so there is a chance you can be two weeks earlier or two weeks later than what they measure you at. with my daughter, they told me july 4th and i said no, its july 12th. they induced me july 10 my daughter was born. =)

mama-sl0p - 877 days ago Yeah it doesn't make sense. I KNOW I am not 14 weeks. My uterus is at my belly button. Just so frustrating. I hope my dr can figure this out. I can see being a week off but not almost 3. I don't have irregular periods so....ugh!
