What does AUA mean on a scan result...

Just going through some scan shots of our little man and drooling over how cute he is!!
There is a spot that says
GA (EDD) - Gestational Age Estimated Due Date
GA (AUA) Gestational Age AUA???

Can anybody shed some light on this??????

ETA: Did a bit of googling - could it be Actual Ultrasound Age??

I did some reasearch on the web and it came up that AUA stands for the average Ultrasound age and another explaination was that it was Actauly Ultrasound Age!!!
so either way looks good!!!
LOL

Oh wow hun - I'm not getting my hopes too high up! Izzy was measuring bigger too and ended up being 11 days late! :) I'm preparing myself for worst case scenario as far as dates go and anything earlier will be a nice surprise after that!

i had a late scan. the AUA was 26/10 - 2 days after the scan. EDD was 11/11 and I was induced on 20/11.

AUA goes by the average measurements for babies, so larger or smaller bubs will measure differently.
