Measuring

At my first ultrasound they said I was two weeks behind what I thought I was. At my last ob appointment , she measured my belly and said I was measuring 30 weeks instead of 28. The appointment before that I was measuring one week ahead. Is it possible that my due date will change? Have an ultrasound next Tuesday to find out.

I've had the same thing happen.  I'm at 30 weeks according to the dr however, according to my LMP I should be 32 weeks.  Yesterday I measured at 31 1/2 weeks.  So im thinking I was accurate with my LMP.  But can never be 100% sure

Yes it's very possible. Apparently it's something to do with the baby's growth rate. I had the same issue as well. The first due date I was given by my GP was around 8th of February but when I went for my first scan they told me I'm due 4th of February and when I went for my last scan which was 3weeks ago, the machine was stating 8th of February again as my due date. I was the Sonographer about it and he said the machine automatically gives a date based on the baby's growth but he said they would usually stick to the date given at the first scan which is the 4th in my case. I hope that makes sense.
