if it was towards the end of the week you might not be too far wrong. usually about week 12 (im personally guessing the start of the week) baby is between 7-10cm, but only 3-4 cm 2 weeks earlier. if ovulation was a few days earlier, may also be a reason. certainly if the doc was not alarmed, i would not worry. just means baby may be here a few days sooner than expected :) congrats x

Was the based on a sonogram?  Or could it be your fundal height?  DId your doctor seem concerned?  13 cm sounds too big for 12 weeks, but i'd have to look it up to be sure.
