Does this mean my due date changed??

I had my bi-weekly dr apt this morning. The midwife told me that I'll be 30 weeks tomorrow, when I thought I turn 30 weeks this Saturday. Does this mean I'm measuring ahead by a few days and my due date is bumped up a few days? She said I will be 30 weeks tomorrow not that I'm measuring 30 weeks. What do you think?

The ladies are right. My water broke at 10:45 on a Sunday night. I was scheduled to be induced the next morning. According to my Dr I was due on July 11th but I went with the soon date of the 6th so to me he was a week over due. Babies cone when you're ready to greet them. They know when you're ready for them:-).  Best of luck to you!

Babies rarely come on their due date so it doesn't have to be exact :) just a round about !

the baby will tell you, if shes comes a couple days early then i guess she was ready.. I wouldnt worry too much about the due date just look at the week that she is due as the due date =)

I was given the due date the 5th of April and then the 11th of April from my 10 week U/S. Since then they have said the baby is measuring big but are not changing my due date because it varies so much once you get out of the first trimester. I figure she will show up when she is ready and the due date doesnt matter that much. But like you I would love to have her sooner then later!!

They told me I was already measuring a week early and I got excited...then she said but they won't move your due date. I'd rather be earlier than later too.

its all within a couple of days so I dont think you have to worry.   I know that even if I'm measuring early that they said my dues date wouldn't change.    the 2 day difference isn't something to be concerned over.   I know people that have been given a range for their due dates of about 5 days so I think it's about normal.

No your due date will stay the same. They usually only change your due date if the measurements are more than 2 weeks off of what they should be in either direction, because babies grow at different rates in the 2nd and 3rd trimester and the measurements at this point aren't an accurate gauge of development :-).
