Age of baby from Ultrasound?

At my 13 week Ultrasound for my 1st Trimester Screening, they said the baby is measuring 6 days ahead. I was exactly 13 weeks and they sad the bay was 13 weeks 6 days. Does that mean my due date will change?

No it would only change if there were more than 7 days difference. The it would go via the scan date.

I was 18 weeks & 2 days when I had my ultrasound and the baby measured 9 days smaller. So they moved my due date up 9 days.

no... everything will stay the same. I measured a few days ahead as well. the only way it would change is if in the last trimester the baby is still real big then things might change...

Good Luck

No. Six days is practically nothing and they won't change your due date unless you're measuring much larger. My son was 2-3 weeks "ahead" but my doctor still kept my due date the same. They won't worry until it gets to, like, 4+ weeks.

Probably not, they'll just watch you a bit closer. I'm only 33 weeks and my baby is measuring 36 weeks so now I'm being given another ultrasound, I had to redo my gestational diabetes test, and they are telling me to prepare everything at home for an early arrival but don't bet on it.
