due dates

so from my very first ultrasound they told me i was due july 2nd. but at that ultrasound i didn't drink enough water. it was a belly ultrasound also. at first she couldn't even see my baby (i was supposedly 6 weeks) and when they finally got it they said my due date was july 2nd. at my 20 week ultrasound i saw my nutritionist and she said my due date changed to june 28th.  its a week off but i always felt like i was ahead from what the doctor told me. but my doctor told me no I'm still july 2nd but my nut said no she's wrong and that I'm due june 28th because the first ultrasound wasn't very clear. so I'm confused. who should i really listen to. my nut. weighs me all the time. measures me and all that. the doctor only listens for her heart beat and gives me medicine if i need it. so I'm not sure. what do you guys think? i been confused about the due date since 20 weeks. but like i said. i always felt ahead from what my doctor tells me. any experiences? what do you guys think?

It's only a difference of five days...and babies so rarely come on their due dates that it doesn't much matter what their guess is. I personally would just keep the later date in mind, and think of July 2 as the due date so if you're late it'll be longer before you are thinking "omg I'm late when is this baby ever going to get here"
