Earlier this week we had our anatomy scan and found out we're having another little girl! but the doctor confused me about the dates.
When the tech was asking my gestation and due date before the scan started I said 19 weeks because that's what we determined due to my possible ovulation date and longer cycles. At 6 weeks I measured on the dot, but 12 weeks I was measuring a week ahead and I guess same again at this one.
After the scan was finished the maternal fetal medicine doctor came in to tell us everything looked perfect and they would be sending the images and notes over to my midwife. He questioned my dates and corrected me saying I was 20 weeks based on my scan and with my lmp. But my midwife hasn't changed my date.
I know 1 week doesn't change a thing, little miss will show up when she decides to come. But do I say I'm 20 weeks like the fetal medicine and scan said, or go by my original 19 weeks?
