all babies grow at different rates after 12 weeks. Although since thats such a range of dates I would still go by the one in April. But really due dates are only guide lines so when ever your baby decides its time to be born it will be. Good Luck

Well the 'actual' gestational period is 10 months so April would be about right. as far as ultrasound due dates, those change ALL the time! Those due dates are based on how big/small the baby is, and every baby is different, so the best advise I could give you is dont focus so much on the 'due' date, your baby will know when its time, after all its all up to them! Good luck and enjoy your pregnancy!

Always go by your last period. I hope you meant that you last period was in July if not this is wrong of what i type in.

well my last cycle was 6/14/06 and i'm 31 weeks and 5 days. And i'm due march 22.And all of my ultrasounds say that he is perfect for 31 weeks .So i would ask your doctor to do a ultrasound to see how mean weeks he looks and see how he is developing.

The "general" gestaional era for a complete term being pregnant is 32 to 40 two weeks. hence a due date could nicely be incorrect by using an entire month. A "due date" is in basic terms an estimate of while the toddler might arrive. mom nature (or God) decides while the toddler is born no longer medical technology.

If you periods are regular, then I would go with your cycle date of April 7th but if not then go with the ultrasound date. It has been my experience that ultrasounds aren't really accurate.

when i was pregnant, my doctor went by my last period and said i was due aug.20. my ultrasounds always showed that i was further along, but she wouldn't change the date for some reason. anyway, i went into labor on july 27. when they checked my son out and weighed him and stuff they said he wasn't premature and that they must have been wrong about my due date. so i would go by the ultra sound, not your period.

you should go by the ultrasound. they are the most accurate. you cant always depend on your cycle to tell you every thing.
