Had another u/s at work today.....

Hi girls...My friend Judy scanned me at work today just b/c I was being me, and we saw the hb again. She said it was 150bpm. Now....my question is....last Thursday another tech from the same dept scanned me and measured me around 6wks 4 days. Today, Judy was measuring around 7wks which would be a little behind than I thought. Judy explained that they have about a minus or plus 4 day window when scanning this early. She also saw the yolk sac and said the placenta would be positioned anterior. She said my cervix looked good and long and my uterus was picture perfect. Anyone else had this happen?? I just don't want to have my hopes up about seeing the hb and maybe the baby isn't growing right or something. Thanks for the help
:)

While it is great that you have someone who can give you these checks, sometimes too much information can drive you nuts! Try not to let it! I am nervous as can be about this pregnancy, but for me personally, it is probably a good thing my OB won't see me until I'm 9 weeks. I know you just want to make sure everything is okay, but sometimes there is such a thing as too much information, if you KWIM. Just hang in there and don't read too much into it right now.

Hey Kelli:

I am certainly not an expert, but I can share with you my last two scans.... the one before last I measured about 2 days behind, and at my last one...I measured 4 days ahead. So try not to worry... I know it isn't easy, but who knows, the next time you may be a couple of days ahead. Hang in there..... I know how crazy it can make you.
