Would you be worried?

I hope that this is okay to ask, my anxiety is taking over.

I estimated that I was 10 weeks pregnant. I went for a private scan today and I'm 6 weeks. There was a steady heartbeat which is great, but I have no symptoms, I'm a month behind where I thought I should be and I'm just panicking. Does this sound okay or would you be worried? Not seen a midwife yet so don't have anyone professional to ask.

Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Were you tracking ovulation OP? Are your cycles generally regular?

LMP is just an initial guide but not always accurate although 4 weeks is a big difference. I'm now 19 weeks and regularly measure 10-12 days what LMP would show me as because of my irregular cycles.

How long age did you get the positive test?

@Pandasnacks a week
@sel2223 no I wasn't tracking, going off previous AF dates.

It's a great sign that you've seen a heartbeat but of course there are no guarantees and this stage is very high risk for everyone.
Have you arranged to go back in a couple of weeks?

If you don’t know exactly when you ovulated and you only did a test a week ago, it’s hard to say.

I think it’s best to go to your early pregnancy unit in a week, to check for growth. Private scanners won’t provide much guidance. I hope it’s all fine x
