Early scan

I booked an early reassurance scan for yesterday. LMP & tracking ovulation would put me at 6+6. My scan was showing at 6+1 which i know is only 5 days difference but I feel even "less assured" than when I went in. We seen a very strong heartbeat which was amazing. I've had daily cramping but no bleeding or spotting. I'm so worried that something is wrong. Husband keeps trying to reassure me that everything is fine and that babies heartbeat was beating away and if there was a problem, the sonographer would have said something. I'm most likely overthinking but I'm just so worried that something will happen!

I’m sure you’ll be fine, especially with a strong heartbeat showing 🩷 try to focus on the positives, easier said than done I know! I also went for an early reassurance scan yesterday, I believed to be 6+1 but the scan put me at 5+2 and an inconclusive scan result due to only the gestational sac and yolk being visible. Obviously worried and have another scan booked for two weeks but also trying to focus on the positives, so far everything has been fine outside of the general symptoms and we’re both healthy. Good luck and I hope everything does continue fine for you 🥰🥰🥰

Try not to worry too much!!! I went in thinking I was 6+6 or 7 weeks and I was only 6+3 it’s very normal in the early stages for your dates to be all over the place as baby is so small and you could’ve ovulated later than you thought you had etc x

Try not to worry too much. I posted a really similar thing yesterday where I thought I was 7+1 but they actually estimated 5+5 I was really upset and the sonographer said to not worry as this is really common as it’s not an exact art knowing when the conception happened. I’m in the exact same position as @Sara where they’ve told me to go back in 2 weeks as they couldn’t visualise everything. Fingers crossed for more next time and heart beat.

It’s pretty normal to get given a different date to what you think you are & when you go to your 12week nhs scan you’ll likely get given a different date again and that’s the one they’ll go by x

Hey i went in at what I thought was 6w 3d and they put me at 5w 3d...I went back a week later and was 6w 6d with a strong heartbeat. I totally get it because I scared myself and was sure it was gonna be bad but it was fine. Here if you wanna reach out and chat x
