Due date

Hi all,

According to my 12 week scan date, I’m ‘due’ tomorrow - but the date based on the date we conceived (have a busy toddler, so embarrassingly know exactly what date that was) is about a week ahead of this date.

I’ve had a feel around to see if I can gauge my cervix but I’m pretty sure it’s still high - as can’t feel it. Totally not keen on induction but also would not want to delay getting it out at this point!

Has anyone had this date thing before and when did you give birth - close to the date given to you Via scan or the date you think it is based on conception?

Also the same here, i got my due date to the 15th of december, my scan got it to the 8th of december, ended up going into labour on the 13th and had her on the 15th!

Ah thanks! I’m at that end stage when I want bebe out but have had no twinges, doesn’t feel like anything has dropped, can’t feel my cervix etc!

Want to pin the on the date thing!
I told the consultant at the time the date thing but I guess they just look at the stage of development at that point?
