Hey sorry my pm's arent working for some reason? But other people may know about this too so they can all read and maybe reply** hey do they change ur due date everytime u measure different? I was just talking to my doctor about this and my last ultrasound put me at july 29th but he said he doesnt change the dates, and he doesnt understand why doctors do that once u past 20 sometihng weeks because the babys all grow at diffierent rates, so the earlier ultrasounds are more accurate... So even though my last one said july 29th, my ultrasound when I was 16 weeks said I was july 22nd still so he said he does not change it. So no matter what he will induce by 7-25. Thats just weird that your doctor would change it so far into the pregnancy...I mean babys are bigger and smaller once ur this late in the pregnancy, thats why everyones babys are born at different weights. I would talk to your doctor about that , thats weird*

I had been measuring 1 week ahead for quite some time and she said I think we are just gonna change your due date to the 19th because that was one of the previous dates they had given me when I first got preggy. They gave me like 4 dates. The first one I had was the 19th, then it changed to august 7th I think nad then shedid the next u/s and took measurements of the organs and put it on track for the 25th.That is why I believed she was gonna change it but when they did the u/s tue. She had taken lots of pics of all the organs and said okay I am keeping it the same. So she never had officially changed it I guess.
When I talked to her today I was telling her about all the dates I had in the beginnning and that I was afraid if they let me go 2 weeks over my baby would be almost 10 pounds and she said we wont let you go over like that. My doc induces too. She was talking about inducing me early cause she says baby dont have much room at all where she is like extra long, lol. Hope that explains it.
Lots of love,
heather and hayley

What he said makes sense to me. I'm sure he's delivered tons of healthy babies, and I know you will be fine!

I am just glad they dont make us wait and go longer that they induce us, but I hear that induced labor is so much more painful is that true???
