big uterus?

hi all!
I had my first ob visit yesterday, and when he was doing the exam he asked
me several times if I was sure on my dates, which I am 110% positive on the
date of my last period, and he said that my uterus looks bigger then it
should.....
what the heck does that mean????

twins????


he wants me to have an ultrasound done Thursday to see what is going on, but
I am freaking out!!!

thanks!

Well, what did your ob say? He might be in a better position to explain what
he meant.

Could mean twins . . . in my case, it means a big baby.

You could already have been pregnant during your last period... some women
continue having periods for a while after conception.

My OB also asked me about my dates a few times. Turns out I have a lovely
fibroid. Hopefully this isn't the case for you but it is fairly common.

It doesn't always mean anything. When I was pregnant with #1 I
apparently felt bigger at 6 weeks than I should so I was sent for an
ultrasound. Given that DH had been out of the country for the
preceding 6 months I would have been in BIG trouble if I'd been more
pregnant! It turned out that everything was completely normal, my
uterus just felt bigger from the outside than it should. Sometimes
it's just how it sits in the pelvic cavity that can make it feel
bigger, and some people just expand quicker to start with and then
stick with a steady rate afterwards.
