As I said to you before, if you got pregnant on November 23, when the doctor looked at your baby by ultrasound and measured it, August 16 would be the due date the doctor would have given you. And, he did not. He has never suggested anything that early, and he is the doctor reading looking at the actual baby by ultrasound. Your doctor is doing the right thing. He can see the baby and measure it, he is correct to go with the actual measurements of the real baby, not with you taking counsel of your fears and "ultrasound people" who say you are due August 23 based on your last period. They have no business timing things by when your last period was -- you yourself said your cycles are irregular. (I asked about this last time, remember?)

He followed my feb 6 ultrasound which is 9 weeks 5 days and said that my period date doesn’t match my ultrasound so as of today I’m 18 weeks and my due date is still sept 7 he also said my period would of had to been a 30 day cycle

Yukilwi, I think that I remembered about your earlier post that your period date did not match your due date. This is not as significant as you seem to think. Women do sometimes have 30-day cycles.

If the doctor saw and measured the actual baby, and took its developmental markers and crown-to-rump length, and told you a due date based on those measurements, as long as your ultrasound was pretty early in the pregnancy, this is going to be a more accurate measurement than fretting over when your last period was.

Can you say what part is confusing? If a doctor were to say to you "Your first day of your last period is not consistent with the evidence of conception time of the baby as seen by ultrasound, " usually the doctor would then ignore when you had your last period and go with the ultrasound evidence. Is that what he did?
