21 weeks and measuring 24??

ok so as most of you now i am in my 21 week of pregnancy...im like 21 weeks and 2 or three days give or take!! Today i went to the doctor and when he measured my belly it was measuring 24 weeks....im right on with my dates as i was ttc and keeping track....is it possible that im going to go in labour before my 40 weeks....like say when my belly reaches 40 weeks which at this rate would prob make me three weeks early( if it stays growing like it is) or am i just having a really big baby....oh and the update of my fluid leak..turns out its a urine infection and thats what it was URINE!! lol...but anywho should i go with my instintic and be prepared at 37 weeks on...cuz i cant get it out of my head that im going to go early..i dont care anywhere after 37 i just dont want to go before that!! any suggestions???

Its not uncommon to measure larger or smaller.  Measuring with the tape measurer is very imprecise.

your doc will probably change your due date...when i was 26wks my belly was measuring 29wks and  2 days and she changed my due date to three wks earlier. so yeah maybe you will deliver sooner.

I am 27 weeks today and measured 30. My doc said that if I continue to measure big he will watch with ultrasounds.
