due date discrepancy

[ange310]

My last menstrual cycle was July 20th which results in an April 26th due date but according the measurements taken at my first ultrasound the obgyn believes my due date to be May 2nd.
Should I be concerned about this discrepancy for the health of the fetus?

Thanks kezza73. Will be having tests and scan in a week so until then I will have to keep busy so I don't think about it.

Well i had another scan yesterday and that has put me back where i thought i should be edd = 5 may so i am 9 weeks 5 days. babys heart rate was 167bpm. So relieved. ange310 have another scan done. Hopefully that will put ur mind at ease it did mine

It changes and the differences you both mentioned are not that big. Heartbeat is excellent sign and it will go up!! Mine has gone to 170 at 12w and Dr is very happy b/c I had no hb last time at 8w.

I am exactly the same. lmp was 30th jul = edd may 5th. had scan done which showed edd of may 13. I thought when i had scan done i was 6 weeks 4 days but they said 5 weeks 4 days. Scan showed heartbeat of 120bpm. I thought 5 weeks was to early to show heartbeat. it was abdominal ultrasound too. So i am.in same boat as u not sure if i shoukd be worried either.
