Did your belly measure 23 weeks (with the tape measure) or did he do an ultrasound and measure the baby?

My niece measured at four monthes for monthes 5 & 6, the doctors said everyhting was fine, never changed her due date. Sometimes apparently babies have growth spurts and lags. The lags are scarier... my SIL thought something was wrong. She is now 11 and healthy and completely normal.

But is it normal I have two girls and they never told me that and now I am having a boy and the doctor tells me this

That's going to be a big baby! At 12 weeks my baby was measuring four days ahead and when I went in two days ago for the gender ultrasound, my little boy was measuring right on target at 19 weeks 6 days exact. I guess he had a growth spurt. That's why the doctors don't change the due date, because they would have to constantly change it throughout your whole pregnancy if they determined it off the babys size.

They said the same thing to me

My Dr says they don't usually change due date after 1st trimester cuz in the second trimester baby's grow at different rates so measurements can be off by 2 weeks or so..... And in the third trimester it can be off by 3 weeks or more so dating should always be done in the first trimester
