Could be few reasons: It's definitely not an exact science when we're predicting EDD.It could be an ovulation that did not happen until after the standard day 14 often used for estimation.With ultrasound it's more to do with the size of the fetus-it may be measuring smaller than one would expect for an EDD of 2/1 according to how you measured at 23 weeks.They are only a week off which is not unusual.
