LMP EDD vs SCAN EDD
Hi everyone, based on my LMP, I am 7 weeks 3 days. Based on my scan, I am 8 weeks 1 day. Can anyone explain this pls? I am abit confused as I am a first time mom.
usually LMP is not accurate cos some may have shorter or longer ovulation. more accurate GA is done by doing ultrasound scan and taking the CRL measurement to determine the EDD. my initial GA based on my LMP vs my scan is at a 5 days diff. After going to my 2nd appt, my gynae concluded that EDD will be based on the scan which is 5 days later than my LMP. cos first and second scans were consistent with the growth of the embryo. as long as gynae says everything is well, don't have to worry too much and enjoy the journey!! take care!
