Patient's question:
I am more than 29 weeks pregnant. Two days ago, I went to the hospital for an ultrasound check-up. The results showed EDD. What does B EDD mean?Doctor's answer:
EDD is the abbreviation for estimated date of delivery, so it's important to pay attention to your body and not get too anxious about the numbers. Since the baby is quite active in the womb, differences in fetal position, as well as variations in how different doctors perform the examination, can all lead to numerical errors. Sometimes, the fluctuations can even be quite significant. After 30 weeks, there is an allowable margin of error of two weeks above or below the estimated date. Therefore, if pregnant women notice discrepancies between the test results and the normal values, there is no need to be overly concerned.
