I am very certain of my dates as was checking temperature and we only had sex once in a 2 week period!! (I was feeling exhausted and we didn't get around to it!). I've had a number of scans due to previous complications and at all of the scans - at 8 weeks, 10 weeks, 12 weeks, 14 weeks and 16 weeks the baby has measured 4 days earlier (older) than my dates.
BUT when they plot the measurements the baby comes out as at the very very lowest centiles for head circumference, femur length etc.
I don't understand this - if she is measuring small then why have they "bumped" her up by 4 days? It is all very confusing.
