Just wondering if the egg implants early (say 6DPO) if this means the due date would be a couple of days earlier than it is if calculated from ovulation? In other words - I know the embryo starts dividing and growing from conception - but does it speed up once implantation has occurred? |

yep it can make a difference I was told. dont know the details about it all but yes it can change your date. but dont focus on that, some babies measure a bit out the whole way through, and come out just perfect  ------------- My little miracle 6/1/2011 My angel in Heaven 9/5/14 http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

| Measured only 2 days further than expected which I think is good anyways, means its growing well. But wondered if the due date was actually the new date or the date I got from ov. I know it doesn't make much difference but I've told family all different dates and now I don't even know which one to believe lol |

Normally they wont change your due date unless it was out by over a week so you'll probably keep the original one. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">  |

If it's a couple of days I wouldn't worry about it. This time around we will only be telling people the due month as last time was 40+9 days when I had out daughter and people kept harassing us from the due date asking if baby had arrived. ------------- 1# Daughter - Oct 12 2# Due - May 15 |

Im the same Womble, just telling people late Dec (really early Dec) but no date as was ready to throttle people with the 'is it here yet' comments. ------------- http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow"> |

| Good to know. The midwife was writing the earlier date on all my papers when I saw her on Saturday. I've told a few people "late April". I know not to expect a baby exactly on that date though, hopefully it's not too late though! |
