FET but scan shows me a week behind my dates

We had a FET which should put me at 6+2. I had some bleeding over the weekend and have been seen at EPU this morning. There is a pregnancy in the uterus, but it’s only measuring 5 weeks. There was no heartbeat (but of course that would be normal at 5/6 weeks).

Is it common for scan dates to give a different gestation than my known dates from when we had IVF? Or is it more likely that the pregnancy has stopped growing and it’s a MMC?

Will they just repeat the scan at a later date? I’ve had the scan and am now waiting to talk to a nurse about it but they are super short staffed so it’s taking forever.

Hi SkittyKat. I can't answer any of your questions, sorry. Hope you weren't waiting too long for a nurse and that everything is ok.

Hi. This happened to me. I went for a repeat scan a few days later and a heartbeat was present. Was still measuring a fair bit behind where I knew I should be though. My story didn’t end well - I hope yours is different x
