Whats going on Im confused about my pregnacy?
My last normal cycle was Feb 2, 2008. I went to the ER yesterday and they said I was 5 weeks and 1 day pregnant. But from my last period I am 6 weeks and 4 days. Whats going on? Is it possible that my baby has not caught up with age yet? Please help
So what your saying is that around week 20 my baby may be caught up to my Nov 8th due date?

well the same thing happened to me. According to my cycle, I was supposed to be 7 weeks. When I went and had my ultrasounds done, they told me I was only 6 weeks... I was confused!
Then, at my 20 weeks ultrasound, they said I was measuring "a week bigger" so that would have put me about a week ahead (like I originally thought). So honestly due dates are just educated guesses! It's not uncommon for a tech to be a week (or even a couple weeks) off, because each baby grows at different rates

Sounds like you ovulated just a bit later than "normal" Most people don't nessesarily ovulate on the 14th day of their cycle and it can vary each cycle. the 14th day is an average only. Ultra Sounds this early in the pregnancy are very acurate in determining age. All babies are the same size till about 20 weeks, then they start to vary is length and weight.

My dates were off a week as well... At 20 weeks when I had my second sonogram my baby was measuring a week ahead... Right where I thought I was from the beginning...
