Q: LMP or Ultrasound due date?

Ok so today is my due date according to my last period but my ultrasound date is 10 more days...
I know bub can come when ever he wants but in anyone's previous experience which date was their delivery more closer too?

I've also been feeling very uncomfortable, with bub engaged, been having headaches but I don't have preeclampsia as my b/p is normal.

Honestly, I think that this point you could go any time. :) You are full term. I think if your LMP date is within a certain amount of days from the US then they stick with the LMP date.

I know that I ovulated late with my first (I think it was something like day 19) but the US date was close enough to my LMP so they stuck with that date. My daughter ended up coming 9 days early at 38w5d.

Ok thanks, Dr was just saying because there's only about a week difference go by US Date.. Didn't quite explain why though so. I'm just going to take it day by day till I go, as I keep getting irregular contractions, stomach going hard as a rock, and boy is he making it difficult to sit lol

Depends on how regular your cycles were. If you ovulate 14 days after your period starts then I'd got with LMP. US dates are typically only good to within a week (according to my doc). If your periods or ovulations weren't regular, then I'd go with US date.
