Very early scans aren't always that accurate dating wise. I went for a scan when I was 6 weeks to be told I was more like 5, but when I went back two weeks later the baby had "caught up" and was measuring right. Also, although pregnancies are generally dated from the first day if your last period, it doesn't take into account when you ovulated. Scans at around 12 weeks are thought to be the most accurate for dating an that is why your due date often changes at this scan. If you ovulated early in the month your date will change to an earlier one and if you ovulated late you due date will be a bit later by this scan.

It is really really common to have some bleeding in early pregnancy, especially at around the time that you would've been expecting your period. I have had this with both of my pregnancies and DC 1 is now 2yo and DC2 is due in April. Try not to worry too much. Have they offered you a follow up scan? If so just try to stay calm till then. Hope all this makes sense. Good luck Smile

ggjj I suppose every pregnancy is different, we both have our scans on Monday so we can both report back. It is going to be a very worrying weekend, there is only so many times you can look things up on the internet, I'm driving myself mad, every twinge etc I have I'm looking it up. The fact that I saw a little heartbeat on Tuesday was fantastic, but as I have bleed so much since I'm so frightened.
I wish you all best for Mon stay positive x

had the scan this morning as expected I had miscarried, the nurse said everything had completly passed so it was good that I didn't have to go through any proceedure.
She also said I will be very fertile for the next few months so try again asap.
Hopefully we will fall again but we won't put any pressure on ourselves.
Thanks for all your support, we are doing fine xx

Best of luck honey, hope u have a healthy happy pregnancy from here on xxx
