The Floating Due Date

The title says it all...the floating due date for baby #2.  At my first OB appointment (8 weeks from last period) all was well and the nurse practitioner said my uterus felt like it was 8 weeks, exactly where I should be.  She gave me the due date of September 30.  Yay! Great!

I got home and did some calculations on baby center and some pregnancy apps on my phone and I kept coming up with September 28th.  I knew that 2 days wasn't really that big of a difference but I just wanted to know what was correct.

At my 12 week appointment last Friday (3/15) I asked Dr. Abey about it and she came back with the September 28th date.  So, that became my official due date!

Then, on Monday (3/18) I went to a specialist for the First Trimester Screening and during the ultrasound the doctor told me I was not as far along as once thought.  So...due date #3 was given! My official due date (#3) is now October 9th.

At first I was bummed, but I am over it, there is nothing I can do.  It gave me an answer as to why I am still feeling blah all the time.  Hopefully in one more week I will be feeling better and have my energy back!

I am excited for an October baby now!! It will be a great month! And, baby will share a birthday month with their daddy! Ben's is October 20, so hopefully there is no way they will share a birthday! Ha!

Hurry up October...
