Head Spinning re dates....any help/advice please??

[Rosebug258]

Hi All

This is a bit confusing so will try to give you as much details as I possibly can...

I had my coil removed on the 5th April (last day of period) on the 25/26th April I had a 2 day light bleed nothing much really just thought my body was being a bit off as I had the coil taken out. On the 16th May has a positive hpt both in the morning and at night (compulsive pee on a stick person) Had some bleeding on the 30/31st May and was sent for a scan on the 1st June and was given the dates of 5+1, no heartbeat was found so was asked to return on the 14th, another scan on the 14th and was told that I was 7+5 right....I had my 12 week scan on the 17th July and baby was measured 3 times once being dated at 14 weeks then again at 13 weeks and finally at 12+4, went for my 20 week scan on the 5th September and was told I was 19+5 all was ok but needed a rescan as placenta is low lying...went back for another scan on the 19th Sept and was told placenta hasn't moved :-( but baby is measuring closer to 24+6 days and further growth scans are advised, saw my midwife on Sunday and she had a feel and measure and told me I was measuring closer to 27/28 weeks....so how pregnant am I??

Sorry this is so long I am sooo confused and awaiting another scan 2 weeks time, can my dates be so far out?? I am not a diabetic or have any other health issues apart from being slightly chunky but am quite tall

Any one had any advice? Ideas on how baby grew so many weeks? Am quite worried that something is wrong??

Forgot to add my edd is the 25th Jan 2014

You sound as confused as me! Ive never been happy with the due date my clinic insists on sticking with even though ive measured ahead at various scans since my first one at "supposedly6w5d"
They dont like to change things even when dating scan measurements indicate you are further on than they thought-well mine dont!

hope someone can offer u advice on why wee one is measuring weeks ahead and good luck with the growth scans- i get my first in 4weeks time :)

I honestly don't understand how baby's jumped so far ahead and how the scans may have been so wrong, just so confused...!! They dont seem very keen on changing my due date but if im so far ahead i think they need to! Perhaps baby is a hippo lol

Hope your scan goes ok :-)

Blimey - that does sound confusing!!!!

I've had 3 scans and the dates I have been given at each scan have been different but still within 3-4 days of each other.

I hope you get to the bottom of it!!

FWIW - my sister's facial features made her look like a hippo when she was born, right up until the age of about 4 and she was absolutely beautiful!! So, even if you do give birth to one it won't be the end of the world
