If your due date from your period differs from your ultrasound due date does that mean high risk of miscarriage?

No, it does not mean that you are in high risk of a misscarriage. The Doctor will normally give a due date with an ultrasound but with a variable of 2 weeks before or after the due date. No worries!
Thank you! I also did some other research, and i guess since I just came off the pill, that could have thrown off my ovulation for that month, which could throw off my due date.

If an ultrasound says you are 17 weeks and 3 days pregnant is that the day you conceived or would it be that date plus an extra 2 weeks?
That means it is the date conceived (or within 48 hours of). It is never right on, but within a week of. Go by what the ultrasound says. No, if your ultrasound says 17 weeks and 2 days that would be that date plus 2 extra weeks, that is around the time of your last period, unless you have irregular periods or conceived straight after a miscarriage or something. The length of pregnancy is always measured from your last period even by ultrasound.
How accurate is an ultrasound if you do not remember your period?
If you do not remember the date of your last period you can have an ultrasound to determine your due date. More than one ultrasound throughout your pregnancy may be required because ultrasounds are not always accurate. They could be out as little as a couple of days by a matter of weeks.
What's the difference between galmp and gaedd when an ultrasound is performed?
GA is gestational age which is how far pregnant you are. LMP is last menstrual period, which is the date of the first day. EDD is estimated dte of delivery (40 weeks from the LMP) The EDD may be changed if the ultrasound gestational age differs from the age by LMP by a lot.
Is my due date different if I conceived while on my period?
It is extremely unusual to conceive during a period, but you may need an ultrasound scan to confirm your due date.
Your ultrasound showed that you are 6 weeks pregnant but you should be 9 could that mean you are having a miscarriage?
An ultrasound at 6 weeks should show a fetal heartbeat, if there was a fetal heartbeat you're not miscarrying.. It's probable you estimated your due date wrong.
How can you work out your due date if your last period lasted for 3 weeks?
I think you are going to have to go with the ultrasound on this one.
Why would the Fetus measuring small on ultrasound Is there anything to be worried about when my due date is Feb. 17 and ultrasound is saying the fetus measures for a due date of Feb. 27?
That's only a 10 day difference. The doctor may have just miscalculated the due date. Your due date is 40 weeks from the first day of your last period.
When given a dating ultrasound do you need to subtract two weeks for an actual date?
When you have a dating ultrasound you are given an EDD (estimated date of delivery) If you count back 40 weeks from this date it should be about when your last period was. If you do not have a regular cycle they may not correlate exactly. 38weeks back from your EDD is approximately when you conceived.
How can you tell how far pregnant you are if you do not know the exact day of your last normal period?
That would be a good question for your doctor. The doctor might suggest an ultrasound. From the ultrasound picture, the technician can estimate how old the fetus is and predict your due date.
Can the calculation done from an ultrasound report and the one made from your last menstrual period differ as much as 1 week?
Yes, if you have a long cycle they can differ. In my first pregnancy my last period was December 17th which made my due date 23rd September. My ultrasound (at 18 weeks) gave a date of October 4th. I had a 36 day cycle. 3 years later my cycle was 28 days and my ultrasound was spot on. An early ultrasound, around 6-7 weeks is extremely accurate. The later in pregnancy it is done the greater the variation as babies are all different sizes.
You are 13wks and 5days pregnant according to your last period but 11 weeks and 2 days pregnant according to your ultrasound but do you take off 2weeks from the ultrasound date you were told on 1st de?
You should be given an Estimated Date of Delivery (EDD) from both your last period AND the ultrsound, and they should match. If the ultrsound date is 2 weeks later than the period date it may be that you ovulated late in that cycle. The due dates for my pregnancies changed several times or more during the nine months. I'd follow the latest due date and you'll be so happy at the end if he/she arrives early. :)
How long after you miscarriage can you try again on another baby?
If your miscarriage took place in last stages of pregnancy, or if in your miscarriage any kind of surgery was done, you should wait more than six months to try again so that your body comes back to normal position and you also mentally prepare yourself to try for another baby. But if miscarriage occurs in early stages of pregnancy, like within three months, and your bleeding stopped within 10 or some more days, then you can try immediately after miscarriage and there is no need to wait long. Recent studies show that if a woman get pregnant again after a miscarriage within six months, her chances of a healthy pregnancy are far more than those who get pregnant after six months. However you should wait for a normal period after miscarriage and when a normal period comes, you can try to get pregnant again after this period. This is because if you get pregnant immediately after miscarriage and do not wait for a normal period, you will have no exact date of start of your pregnancy as well as LMP. So it is advised to wait for a normal period. My advise is also that you try again after a normal period after the miscarriage, and try immediately after that period and do not wait any more. There is no need at all to wait for more than one normal period. Hope this is the answer to your question.
