Changes of due date driving me crazy! help pls

When i first found out i was pregnant was at Er with a sonogram where they gave me a due date of feb 2. My periods are very irregular so they went by the sonogram at that time. When i went to the ob/gyn they told me feb 5... than later at the same practice but different dr told me feb 10. Now i had to change drs a couple months ago and he told me jan 29 based on my sonogram. Now yesterday nurse told me feb 10. Now i had a sonogram 4 weeks ago were they told me that i was due on jan 29 ! But that eventhough i was 33 weeks on that sonogram my baby measures two weeks ahead.... please help! What would you girls do? I know sonograms are not 100 accurate and its an stimate but i am freaking out since my aunt went throught the same and went my cousin was born she was born dead!! They let her pass her due date!!!!

you need to stick to one dr.. I feel like that's why they keep changing them because of the sonogram babies grow at different rates.. id use the first one of feb 2

You poor thing that's a pretty long time between dates too you'd think they could narrow it down better than that. I would definitely tell them about your aunt & be clear that you aren't comfortable with all this back & forth nonsense-you need a more definite time! Mine went from April 3rd to the 13th, then she measured a little ahead so she's @ the 9th but they've left it @ the 13th & said babies come when they want! So we're going with it since she's on target growth wise.

Ya that would be horrible to be messed with like that...not even sure how many weeks you are. I would ask my dr to set an induction date in the first week of February. But that's me...good luck and keep us posted.

That would be seriously annoying being constantly told different dates..if i was you i would tell your doctor your concerns and about what happened with aunt and tell them you want them to make a final decision on your due date and

I would be scared to just set up a date to get induced  around maybe the last week of January  going into February that way you'll know you're okay
