anyone measure ahead at NT? did doc change dd?

i had mine today and was measuring 5 days ahead. i know its not much, but it seemed more than the typical 2-3 days ahead...

i see my regular doc next week, curious if he will move up the dd or not...

  • My OB said they usually don't change it unless it is a week or more.

  • I measured 6/7 days ahead (depending on who was measuring) and they didn't change mine. That's consistent with my O date but I don't think it matters. 
  • I also measured a week ahead and he wouldn't change mine.
  • I measured 6 days ahead but they won't change it unless it's more than a week off.

    For me, it's consistent with the fact that my cycles are short (anywhere from 20-25 days, usually 25) and therefore I ovulate pretty early.  But they don't really care, they just go by LMP unless things are really off.

  • I was 6 days ahead and the dr. did not change mine.  I think he might if it was at least 1 week.  I'm curious to see where I land at 20 week u/s.....

     
  • I measured 5 days ahead and they won't change mine unless I'm more than 7 days.

  • was it your first u/s?  Usually if they are going to move it, they go off the earliest one.  But I *think* most places don't touch the EDD unless it is more than 1 week difference.

  • I measured 5 days ahead at my NT scan on both babies, they wont change my due date because they wont let me go past 38 weeks to begin with, and if I go earlier than that_36/37 weeks) it wouldnt be out of the normal range for twins.

  • I'm only measuring 2 days ahead but my EDD is still the same. Most OBs won't change it unless it is off a full week or more.
  • I have been measuring 4 days ahead since my ultrasound at 9 weeks...I had one at 7 weeks when they gave me my due date and then went back 2 weeks later and the baby had grown alot...I was still measuring ahead at 12 weeks by 4 days but they won't change my due date...they think I am just going to have another big baby. DS was 9.5lbs and 21.5 inches long at birth. I am only 5'2 and not heavy at all so looks like I just have big babies...lol.

  • I was always 4 weeks ahead with DD but they never changed my date because I knew when my last period was. She was just a big baby. He told me to expect bigger this time. Whoa.. Emma was 8.14 and 22 in

  • I was measuring 6 days ahead, but she is keeping all the dates the same.

  • I measured 7 days ahead at my NT scan, and it was my first ultrasound. My OB moved my DD accordingly. I asked if it would be moved again after the 20 week u/s if baby was measuring ahead or behind, and she said most likely not, since an early u/s is more indicative of baby's gestational age.

  • I need to call the dr because I measured almost two weeks ahead so I missed my NT scan.  It is a pain but at this point it wasn't pressing to me so I never called my dr. yet and hopefully if I wait they will have the results from U/S from that dr.

  • Ever since my first US, the US nurse said I was 12 weeks when the doc said I was 11 weeks. My DD is a week farther than the nurse thought, but since due dates vary anyway, my doc says to expect anywhere within 2 weeks before or after the due date.
