Hi Hun, I am in the same situation, my due date using my LMP is 18 November but the dating scan says the 22 of November I know its not much of a difference but my Doc said I should go with her due date. She said I may have ovulated later than I think.. But like Klara2222 said they ae considered more accurate :) xxx

What did your doctor say? My doctor changed my edd after the 7 week ultrasound. Based on my LMP it initially was August 5th but it was changed to August 16th after that first ultrasound (I knew it would be changed since I knew how late I ovulated). My LO has been measuring accurately at all following u/s based on the u/s edd.

So, check with the doctor, but I'd think the August 1st one would be more accurate.

At how many weeks was the ultrasound conducted? Early ultrasounds 12 weeks and earlier are considered more accurate than LMP, but the later the ultrasound is conducted, the more likely it is to vary from your EDD. If it was an ultrasound conducted later in your pregnancy, go with the LMP date. I hope this helps :)
