I knoe I'm being a little neurotic but I had a tramatic birth 1st time round and are really worried about being overdue/induced.
(ds was 11 days late, induced, epidural, episiotomy, ripped anyway, ventouse, 9lb 1oz, 27 hours, pnd after)
Can I just ask some advice?
What I am concerned about
edd given
1st scan 27th Oct
2nd scan 29th Oct
3rd scan 5th Nov
discrepancy of 10 days
My 20 week scan shows dates out by 2 weeks (average)
Edd should be 2 weeks earlier?
My 24 week growth scan shows dates out by 2 weeks sonographer said baby was on larger side of average.
2 weeks earlier is 22nd Oct
If you take the 1st date as being the edd then being ?overdue? is taken from then.
But if you take the growth scan dates being ?overdue? will be from 22nd
So, having been 11 days overdue with ds 1 and having to be induced I could, this time, have a big baby or have the wrong dates?
How do you work out how (if) overdue you are?
Thank you
