Difference in EDD

Question

Hi fellow mummies, just went for my very first gynae appt a few days back, the gynae has roughly estimated for me to be at 6w4d with the ultrasound but based on the calculations from my 1st day of last period (I track religiously with an app) I should be somewhere 8w. That’s quite a gap :/ Not sure which one should I be following for me to keep track of my pregnancy progress? Can anyone help pls? #pleasehelp #firsttimemom

Wait for the next scan when you see dr again for follow up! Usually around wk10-12 Edd most accurate. After that many other factors will come into play. Don’t worry about Edd so much afterall it’s estimated. Most babies don’t come out on their exact edd anyway. Most importantly baby is well and healthy! :) congrats on your pregnancy!
