Good news or bad news?

Where to begin? We lost our daughter, conceived via IVF, at 23 weeks due to a placental clot that went un-noticed in January. We tried for 4 years previously without success.

After getting my cycle back we decided to try again and we're scheduled to start a frozen cycle when my next af was due which was approx 17th May. I tested on the 17th and had a few BFP's and a few BFN's using different tests. 3 days later all brands were BFP.

I've been having side pain so we were referred to the EPU for a scan in case it was ectopic. I had the scan this morning and the dates are off.

According to the NHS I'm 7,5 (using lmp). I know this is wrong because my cycle is roughly 35 days plus or minus a day or so. According to my best guess based on ovulation mucus (since we didn't think we could conceive I wasn't charting) I would be anywhere from 6,2 to 6,5. The scan has me at 5 weeks but there was a visible heartbeat and thankfully everything is where it should be.

I am now very worried that the scan showed such a difference in dates. I know it's plus or minus a week, but that still doesn't match my dates. The sonographer and midwife seem supremely unworried and don't even want to see me again. Am I worrying over nothing? I'm not sure how accurate these scans are this early.

Edit- forgot to add, I'm throwing up like a champ (twice so far today) and have no worrying symptoms aside from the unexplained side pain.

Could the side pain be ovary's? I have a sharp pain in left one on and off, at my early scan they said i had a cyst on it so maybe its something like that? Hope all goes well for you, good luck xxx

The side pain is likely to be either digestion related or just usual aches and pains. I'm more worried about the scan dates than anything. I guess if I rationalise it, it could be only just out (if it's 6 rather than 5 weeks) but I'm awfully worried.

I ovulated late the few cycles after mc maybe it could just be that or late implantation? I know its hard but try not to stress to much

Congratulations!

I read somewhere you can ovulate twice in the one month so maybe you went twice and did'nt recognise the first one through mucus?

2 weeks and 3 days into my cycle(average 28days) i started testing positive on early tests, just after chemical preg. Doc thinks I've got dates wrong(no chance).I have no idea how far along I am as a result! maybe 5 weeks? I think our bodies will do what they want, regardless of our best laid plans or ideas to monitor them!
