You will have lots of people commenting here that they had a scan at a similar time and it was perfect. However you need to consider that at 6 weeks there is a good chance it will give you an inconclusive result, which may leave you feeling really anxious for the next week or two while you wait for a rescan. My two cents is, if you can, I would wait til 7 weeks, when the results of the scan are much more likely to give you information about how the pregnancy is growing. I know is so hard to wait.
Thank you for this honest feedback. I think I will re-schedule it for nearer to 7 weeks as I don’t want to be disappointed

I thought I was 7 weeks, but I saw my baby on Monday and was dating 6 + 1 with a perfect little heartbeat, so it's definitely not a waste of time, but it is still very early not everyone sees baby this early. So waiting until 7 weeks would be better.
Unfortunately, for me, I think I am miscarrying.
Wish you all the best if you do go tomorrow xxx

keeping everything crossed for you x

@Kit Thank you. Unfortunately, I did miscarry. I had it confirmed on scan this morning 😢 x
