A bit worried after my early scan 😩

Hello mommies, I’ve calculated since my last period (22nd of December) and I’m pretty sure my pregnancy is now at 8 weeks but yesterday I had my early scan and the doctor estimated it at 5 weeks + 1. I’m really confused as it’s a pretty big gap and wondering if the baby is developing normally ? ❤️

I didn’t have as big of a gap but I thought I was 6+3 and was 6 exact they said it’s normal but I don’t know how much time either way, could be you ovulated late? Can you call back have a second opinion?

I wpuld ask if they would do another scan. There is a big difference between 5 and 8 week scans. Did they say everything was ok? Did they offer you to come back because of the big difference in your calculations?

Hey, I had something similar, we thought was 12 weeks and scan suggested was only 9. Baby developed just fine and is now 6 weeks old

I went die a scan thinking I was 8 weeks but was only 6. They said its just because my cycle must have been longer when I conceved xx

I had a reassurance scan at 9 weeks and he measured small and so they said I was 6 something weeks even though I knew exact date of period and when I ovulated. He was only 1 day behind by the time I went to 12 week scan! I was told in first scan there is usually a 2 week discrepancy plus or minus so early on as baby is so small.
