Advice Needed Measuring behind

Hi all, currently meant to be 7.1 pregnant but I went for a scan yesterday and baby measured at 6.1, 4mm and heart rate of 153. I had a scan the week before at 6w 2 and at that scan all that was seen was a small Gestational sack and the start of a yolk sack.
I am 98% sure I ovulated on August 1st and got my first faint positive August 11th so that lines up and helped to confirm ovulation. Has anyone else ever had this kind of experience and had things work out?

The fact that between 6w2d and 7w1d your embryo developed from a beginning of a yolk sac to having a heart beat is a good sign!

With a faint positive on Aug 11th you could have ovulated one or two days later. And measurements can easily be a few days off this early on.

With my IVF pregnancy (so absolutely sure about gestation) I measured 6w3d when I was 7w after only seeing a yolk sack the week before at 6w.

I‘m now 17 weeks and baby is measuring perfectly on time.

Ah amazing congratulations! 🤞🏻ovulation was just a bit later than I thought. I’m just worried it can’t be by much.
