Re: Gestational age discrepancy???From: Christopher (anonymous@obgyn.net)Tue, 27 Apr 1999 15:25:22 -0400

Had ultrasound today, and >ultrasound showed one fetus (there was a suspicion of twins) with an >approximate age of 14 weeks, 2 days. I am not a doctor but maybe some anecdotal evidence will make you feel a tad better:) A 4 day discrepancy is not that big. U/S is not an exact science either. A LOT depends on the skill of the person performing the U/S. I measured 2-3 weeks larger than dates until I was about 20 weeks. There was nothing wrong with me or my ONE baby. My uterus was just a little on the large side (Note: by the end of my pregnancy I was measuring 3 weeks SMALL-uteri are fickle things:-)). If your baby looked healthy and there is only one try not to worry. There is probably nothing wrong. Whether or not your endo would have anything to do with it I don't know maybe one of the docs could shed some light on that. Enjoy your pregnancy and baby. Pretty soon you should start feeling him/her move. Congratulations and Good Luck karen
