About Kristy
Expertise
I am a midwife, and have been for the past 10 years. I can answer most questions starting from pregnancy symtoms, right up to labour and delivery. I am able to recognize pregnancy related issues, from mild, to serious if given the symptoms. I am also keen on other health issues dealing with the female reproductive system, that may or may not be pregnancy related, and can give advice in that area as well. I am also a mother of two small children and will share my experiences with one text book pregnancy and delivery, as well as a very difficult pregnancy and delivery I experienced. Not only am I educated in this area, I have personally experienced the joys, and obstacles of this area as well.

Experience
In my early years, I practiced in the labour and delivery ward of my local hospital. I was an R.N.A. I later returned to Univeristy, and studied to become a midwife.

Education/Credentials
2 year nursing course, at the University of Toronto. 2 year course in Midwivery, at the University of Toronto.

ObGyn/Pregnancy issues - what if i go early


Expert: Kristy - 12/19/2006

Question
the docs said my due date was jan 13th if i go early does that mean it could be som one elces baby? i had sexs in march but  the docs said i got preg like the 19th or 20 or april whos do u think it is?

Answer
Hi Staci :)

I would definately go by the dates your doctor give you. They will be accurate, by the information given to them by sonograms, ect.

Keep in mind, just because you may deliver early, doesnt mean that you need to question the father of the baby. Many ladies, whom have accurate gestational ages, might have the baby 2 weeks early, and some will go a week past their date, even 2 weeks over their due date. The baby will come when he/she is ready ..whether its early, or late!

So again, if your doctor says that you got pregnant around the 19, or 20th of April, then I would definately beleive it. Its pretty certain that the person you were active with at this time, is the father of your baby.

Hope this answers your question, and thanks for writing!

-Kristy
