A member asked:
Can the measurements of an 8or9 wk fetus measure "big" and be mistaken for a 12wk fetus? do fetuses have similar growth patterns at this early stage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No and Yes: First trimester ultrasounds are very accurate for establishing your due date due the small variation in fetal growth at this stage.
