Has this happened to anyone else?

So this is my second pregnancy, my first was completely healthy and there were no complications. So I just found out I was pregnant January 4th, I had my first appointment Monday February 8th because according to my period I am 9 weeks 4 days now... So my doctor checked me like any normal check but she wanted to feel my uterus and see how it felt due to the fact that I just had my son in July of 2015 so these pregnancies are close together, she checked and she said it feels like I'm only 7 maybe 8 weeks along and that since I was on the pill before I had my last period it could have caused me to ovulate later in the cycle so she is sending me for an ultrasound on Friday. I was just wondering if this happened to anyone else? My son was big 9 lbs 8oz so it just worries me a little that I might have a small baby this time around or something may be wrong. My doctor didn't say there was any problems and didn't seem worried but I don't know if I should be worried.

I didn't exactly have this happen to me but my cycle got off somehow I'm supposed to be 23 weeks according to my last period but when I had the first ultrasound they said I was actually 4 weeks behind that so I'm 19 weeks now. I don't think it's too much of a concern tho! Good luck at the ultrasound and congrats on ur pregnancy!! :)

Based on my LMP, I would've been due 12/24/15, but was measuring a little over two weeks behind that at my first ultrasound. Turns out that I ovulated two weeks late and my due date was moved to 1/9/16. This was also my second. I had her on the sixth of last month and she was 1.5lbs bigger than my first! I'm sure you ovulated late.

I didn't need an ultrasound my last pregnancy at the beginning, my first ultrasound with my son was to tell me his gender then I had a growth chart one at 36 weeks because at 34 weeks he was 6 pounds. That's why I asked if I should be worried this time around.

I needed an ultrasound too because of being on birth control. I had my son 2/20/15 and found out we were expecting #2 in november of this year, but because of not fully knowing my ovulation date I got a dating ultrasound. Everything was fine but this pregnancy has been tons harder as far as my own symptoms
