Am I an idiot?

When I had my u/s on 4/7, I was measuring exactly 8w0d with a due date of 11/17.

I had another appointment on Friday due to cramping and the nurse said I was 9w2d. But based on my due date/measuring, I was 9w1d. I figured she made a mistake.

However, now TB app is also ahead. I'm actually only 9w5d but it says I'm 9w6d! I haven't been on the computer in awhile...what does my ticker say? Does anyone else have this glitch? Or can I just not do math? Am I crazy? So many unanswered questions.

Also, I know it's just a day off and totally a FWP. But it still bugs me. ;)

  • Some apps show X weeks Y days, others say X weeks, day Y. 
    For example, I'm 11+3 today. One app says 11 weeks 3 days, this shows 11 weeks day 4. It counts the first day of the week i.e. 11 weeks would be 11 weeks day 1, but means 11 weeks. 
    Hopefully that makes sense! I tried explaining it to someone on another app and they didn't understand and thought it was adding a day still

  • Most of the time medical professionals don't change due dates when they're off by less than a week due to the limited accuracy of measurements. But as PP said, your ticker does say 9+5.

    I'm not sure if that means you're crazy or not, though ;)

    Completely makes sense. That explains a lot and why the nurse probably got it wrong since she was using one of those circular due date things...it was probably set up the way TB app is (counting the 0d as a 1d)

  • The bump is saying last day of week 7 for me, and I am 7w6d. It was confusing earlier in the week. It seems like on your ticket change day it will say week x, day 1 as in the first day of the new week.
  • I think TB changed it in their last round of [opinion removed] updates.  I seem to remember my app updating and TB seeming to push me forward one day per the description others have given above.

    ... did you really write [opinion removed] or did big brother seriously just edit that? Guys. If people don't like your update, editing out their complaints won't make the changes any better.

    I am shocked. I highly doubt she wrote that. TB is getting ridiculous.

  • I was really confused too. According to my LMP and my tickers, I got 12/3 but one of the MAs at my clinic somehow calculated my due date as 11/30 and I just could not figure it out. I felt dumb, so I get the confusion, though it was over more than a day so I felt extra dumb. Now I'm measuring way ahead and my due date has been moved to 11/28, so I don't know how the heck she got it but apparently the MA was closer- but then that would mean I ovulated on CD9 which is laughable. But baby comes when baby wants, anyway, so oh well. Sometime in late November/early December it is.

    Could be that TB is screwy. TB is always screwy. Baby sizer ftw.

    No no no!  I wrote it!  Welcome to my somewhat nerdy (?) sense of humor.
    Hahahahahah my apologies then! Too funny. I embrace your somewhat nerdy sense of humor.
