Not as far gone as i thought?
Hi
Just got back from having an early scan due to pains i was getting. Was really chuffed because there was even a heartbeat which i wasn't expecting.
However the sonograher told me that it was to early to give me a def due date and i wasn't 6 weeks yet. The baby is 2mm in size. I thought i was 6 +4 and now i'm worried that the baby isn't as big as it should be. ?
Has anyone else thought there were further than they were following a scan? Am i worrying (yet again!) about nothing.
Thanks x x x x x x x

Hope that helps xx
I really wouldnt worry about the babys size, wait until your 12 wk dating scan where you will get a more accurate date. I was out a few days with mine. As baby tigger said you might have ovulated later than you thought ect.
Good luck and I wish you a happy and healthy 9 months xxx
Hope this helps and makes sense xx
I weny for my dating scan at what i thought was just over 10 weeks and they said i was just over 8 weeks. It can be a little disappointing at first because you are not as far gone as you thought. But do not worry the time goes past really quick as i am now 24 weeks! Everything will be fine.
i went for my 12wk scan only to be told i was in fact 10wks, then at the 12 wk scan (bagged a freebie scan out of it!!) i was told it was again out by a few days.
i did worry at first but i am now 26wks and baby's growth is fine.
as my mum said, when they measure your baby at the scan they put a cross on each end of the baby,now one sonographer will put the centre of the cross in one place and they other may put it slightly out, with the size of the bubba's that can make all the difference.
try not to worry.
people say it flies by, it didn't for me as i pretty much cant think about anything else! i try and think of it as "by xmas i'll be 15 weeks" then the next landmark after that! that way it seems a lot quicker than just counting the days!
