At my 20 week scan when I was 21 weeks the baby's measurements were all closer to that of a 22 week old baby but they didn't change a thing, just think it's big (yay... lol) or had a growth spurt. I don't know if that's because my EDD by dates is so close to my EDD by my 12 week scan where I only got put back a day.
I would probably have argued if they'd tried to change it further as we know the night we conceived and I have a really regular cycle. I read some horror stories of babies being induced early because of dates being changed late into the pregnancy...

Yeah same as Sarah, measurements might indicate your further but its likely just a big baby so iv not heard of dates changing, It wasn't mentioned at my last scan, my friend had a 4d private scan last night and they have put her 4 week further on! Thats some big baby...she has gestational diabetes which of course can affect things, but a whole month!!!

I've not heard of it before. I think that unless they thought that the baby was alot further behind / ahead than previously thought then maybe they would but if it's just a matter of a couple of days or so I think they just stick with the original EDD x

I am curious as someone just posted that after 16w appointment she has been put forward?
Also I am sure someone else said they were put forward at 20 week scan?
As I understood it your EDD will not change but you can be measuring big or small?

That has to be unusual to be moved, I'd be feeling really confused if my dates were changed. Is it possible for the 12 week scan to be measuring behind or ahead but then maybe if the 20 week scan is more in line with your original dates they'd change it?
Not sure why they'd change it at the 16 week appointment, at mine all they did was measure my BP and listen to the heartbeat. Nothing happened that, as far as I know, would be an EDD changer.
I'm puzzled...

The 12 week scan is the most accurate I believe as babies grow at same rate until that time then after that I think it's a case if your baby is measuring smaller or bigger than average rather than your dates changing. x

Honestly someone just posted in Tri 2 that she was moved after 16w appointment so that is what made me ask LOL
xxxxxxxx
I've not been moved after my 20week scan! I would find it odd to be moved forward at your 16w appt! MW did all the usual told me where my uterus was sitting and that was it :/
They did say at my 20 week scan that baby was 11oz! Cute nearly a whole 1lb!!

I believe you! Sorry if it came across abit funny! It is a strange one, I really can't understand why they would at 16 weeks? I'm glad you asked though

Yes it's was Kayuki123, she says she's been moved back to her original EDD by the midwife after her dating scan had altered her dates before.
I was suprised too as I didn't think they did that either but if there was a mistake I guess they have to correct it .
My dating scan wasn't at 12 weeks I thought I was 16 +4 but I was put me back to 15 so I'm hoping that was a mistake and that they may correct it at my next scan (20 weeks) . xx
