My doctor says my due date is september 2 and I just had an ultrasound 2 days ago they said I am farther along than I thought new due date august 19 and baby weighs 6lbs 12oz. My doctor is keeping my september due date even if the ultrasound says august 19. What do I believe? I need to prepare for this, please help.

The earliest ultrasounds are usually the acurrate then the ones later on. But some times they are wrong.

Stick with the september date but be ready before the middle of august that way if baby does turn up before the september date you will be pleasently suprised. I had two scans and both worked out to be due on 25 april and my dates were the 18 april my son actually turned up on the 2 april.
