could docs be wrong

So im 7 months pregnant and i think I could be further along then they say and im not alone. Im 1.5 centimeters dilated been in hospital twice lost mucas plug new years eve and been leakin water for a bit now. The doctors r going by my last period witch was only three days and it was more like spotting and the previous month we thought we were took a test but it came out negative. My fiance says he thinks that ir was because it was still to early to tell but I had all the signs of pregnancy. Could it be a possibility that im a month further then what they say also my baby is above what an average baby would be at 7 months been like that my whole pregnanctly.

***she weighted 8lbs 11oz. They kept telling me I Must have got my date wrong. Like you my last period was short! Only 2 days long and light but I had a negative pg test when I testes. So who knows!!! They can't tell you by ultrasound because you hit a point in development that they can't be certain by just measuring. The most accurate date is the one your first ultrasound puts you at!!! My first ultrasound put me a week ahead. So I would have been around 37w5d when I had my daughter... and that would have made more sense

My whole pregnancy I was told I was bigger and I was always measuring at least 4w bigger. My doc refused to move my due date because she didnt know if I conceived sooner then I had thought or if the baby was just bigger. I had no history of preterm labor, my first was born on her due date and weighed 9'7. I started having contractions at 28w and by 33w I was 5cm dilated. They sent me home! Baby at that time was over 7lbs by ultrasound. I gave birth at 36w se

Based on the size of your baby you could be further along, but losing your mucus plug and being dilated can happen weeks before actual labor. So... who knows? It's kind of a guessing game because no one knows for sure exactly what day you conceived (ovulated). Maybe he/she will be a bit earlier than expected :)
