They moved my due date by 3 days even though like you I know it's wrong, what I would say is unless you really feel passionately about keeping your original due date I wouldn't worry about it. I don't know any one of my friends or family who kept their original due date, they were all moved abit. With my daughter they moved it back and now with my son they've move it forward. I preferred the moving it forward one. Good luck with your pregnancy.

They never change ivf due dates as the science is so exact! Baby will fluctuate over the course of the pregnancy

Yeah, I'd just leave it as well. I KNOW we conceived on December 7th (my SO had been working night shifts all week- plus I had A LOT of ovulation pain and a positive OPK), but via the ultrasound it's saying we conceived December 3rd. I know there was NO way we conceived on the 3rd, but I just shut my mouth and go along with it :) As long as they're only a few days off, it doesn't really matter anyways :)

Yes, leave it. The measurement fluctuates throughout the pregnancy. Baby will catch up.

I would leave it as babies tend to vary in the beginning from 6 days ahead or six days behind. This happened to me at 9 weeks 5 days I measured at 10 weeks four days. At anatomy I was measuring behind 5 days. Dr said he was leaving my due date the same because the date was so close to the original.
