hi every one,
i had my scan on friday 19th january and they put me at 15 weeks 3 days. i worked out then that i was 16 weeks on the tuesday. i have been counting up one week every tuesday which by my working out i should be 20 weeks this tuesday.
i had a midwife app today (not my usual midwife) and she said im 19 weeks tomorrow! to me this doesnt work out right. who's right?
 
:think:

Nope.. I don't understand it either. I made you 20 weeks on Tues 20th Feb too!

Sorry I'm not much more help!

:wall: :wall: :wall:

By my reconing your ticker is right.

All i could think is that expected week of delivery is what she was going by (?).

See what your next MW says and question it :D
 
ive been going by what the ultrasound machine put me at which must be right as it works it out by the measurements doesnt it, well im sticking by 20 weeks im NOT going back a week lol
 
Good on ya girl, i went to see my MW and my appoint was at 19 wk 5days, she only wrote 19wks in(being lazy) so when i got home i wrote the +5 in :D
 
Hi

I would do what you think is accurate hun and im sure if you wanted to ask she would tell you how she came up with it

its very confusing, isnt it! every time i go 2 the hosp. or 2 see the midwife, i always kno how many weeks+days i am, and almost every time theyve put something different in my maternity notes! i've had due dates ranging from may 31 to june 13!!
i think the first scan is the most accurate, and if i hav my facts right i think all babies grow the same rate until 12 weeks, so if ur scan is any later than that the dates may not be completely accurate.
maybe mention it next time u see her, tell her ur confused?!
 
We had a scan at 5 weeks 5 days which gave us 11th June, the 12 week scan gave us the 8th June, then the 20 week scan (which we actually had when I was 22 weeks) gave us the 11th June again, unless the sonographer couldn't be bothered to add the + days on :think: I too would ask your midwife about it if it's on your mind :hug:
