worried about due date

We tried to conceive foe 3 years and had several miscarriages. My doctor indicated that because my cycle was 40 days long that when my egg dropped it wasnt viable..which led to the multiple miscarriages around 8 weeks.
We are pregnant now, my last period was 9/25/14. I have a due date of 7/7/15. But that doesnt match the day or even the week that i should have ovulated. I am now 13 almost 14 weeks along and my calendar states i should be 15-16. Is this a big deal? This is how i lost babies before because i was fertile too late in my cycle. Is he still at risk?

I thought i was farther than what i am when i went to my first dctors appointment. I was told if you have sporadic periods then your ovulation wont match up all the time.

I'm in the same boat with my last period,  how long my periods are, my due date.  Last period was on the 28th, I'm due the 5th. It might change a little but I'm 13 weeks.  Seems normal to me.

It might be off a little,  unless you know exactly the date you conceived, you still never get an exact date. Baby will come when it comes.

I had been having bloodwork done to make sure i was ovulating on day 14. Which i did in that cycle so thats why im so worried. Ive been to the ER a few different times and theyve said his developement is impressive for his age when sonograms have been completed but then i looked back and he actually should be older since it was confirmed that i ovulated correctly. Im worried :/

Have you or your partner had blood test for karyotyping? That could be behind the miscarriages..my hubby and I lost 8 then had these tests done and found our answer although it isnt fixable we finally knew the real reasons behind the losses and qualified for ivf.

You have made it past the 13 week mark in which miscarriage chance risk drops to under 1%. Due to my period and ovulation my dates are still off by a week but the doctor said it's not a big deal. As long as your baby is fine I wouldn't stress, that only makes things harder on you. Good luck sweetie. Seems like this is finally you time to have a baby. Prayers sent your way for a safe pregnancy and healthy baby.

You have a miracle baby, my dear. I hope for the best, and believe that everyday you remain pregnant is a day closer to you knowing for sure that you will hold this kicking, screaming child in your hands with a big silly grin on your face. You are well out of your 8 week curse...send the baby some love. Looks like you got a force to recon with growing inside of you
