baby measuring almost two weeks ahead of due date should i be worried?

I had an ultrasound very early in pregnancy to determine how far along i actually was ... turning out i was six weeks i go back at 14 weeks and measure 16 wks.   is this normal ?  I am very small and my daughter actually measured a lil behind her due date not ahead.

I measured 3 weeks behind by ultrasound and my daughter actually came out average. I wouldn't worry about it. The further along you get the less accurate the ultrasound.

Kay. You stated that you're 16 weeks? I wouldn't be too concerned. Fluid, babies position and ultrasounds just getting more inaccurate the further you get can cause you to be off. Are your doctors concerned at all? If they're not I wouldn't be.

Are you measuring ahead by ultrasound or by belly measurements. If it's by the tape measurements, its best to not worry. I measured 6 weeks behind (I was 33 weeks measuring 27 weeks) and my daughter was born very healthy and perfectly sized.
