Hi ladies.

So LMP makes me 8+4 today -i know i ovulated late (nov 5th) so i worked out to be 7wks today.
Had a dating scan this morning and she dated me as 5weeks!
I had my positive test 3wks ago.

She did a external scan
Im classed as 'fat' (size 16)
And she saw a heartbeat.


Now i thought this was impossible for 5wks?
Even on an internal scan?
They wont rescan untill 12wks - im now convinced something is wrong :(

Any advice?
 
I had this with my first 9 years ago. I was told i was 8 weeks. I 100% knew that i was 12 weeks, i went back at '12 weeks' to be told i was actually 16 weeks. I was right all along. Honestly don't worry, stress isnt good x
 
Im tempted to go private for another scan in a few weeks as if i am right it will be too late for the screening when i go for 12wk one.
Its a long ass wait till feb to see if its okay!
 
This happened to me and unfortunately didn’t end well, I was supposed to be 8 weeks but measured 6+1 and saw heartbeat. I pushed for a follow up scan as I was certain of dates and at next scan the heartbeat was gone. My scans were done internally though which I think is much more accurate early on, so your measurements could maybe be out? I keep my fingers and toes crossed that everything works out for you x
