@ciara I'm pretty sure you can hold off on the induction until later, so talk to your doctor. However, my doctor is kinda rude and never let's me say anything or ask questions., but I will stand up to him when it comes to inducing and stuff. Good luck!! I hope all of our babies come naturally.

I'm like you! LMP is 9/25 my ultrasound is 9/18.

I had my first ultrasound at what I thought was 9 weeks, but really it was 10 weeks according to the u/s tech.

So I'm going with the u/a due date, but my son is still not here!! 4 days left. Hope he comes before next Monday. Otherwise my dr. Wants to induce.

My doctor said they go by the first ultrasound if its done early on because every babys the same size early in pregnancy so its more accurate..based off my LMP im due September 23rd but based off my first ultrasound im due October 12th (a 3week difference) and my doctors going with the October one
