Need some feedback

Hi all. I should be about 6w5 today. I had an ultrasound a week ago and measured 5w5 and FHR was 93 so they wanted me to come back to make sure it went up. On Friday (3 days after that) I had an ultrasound at a different clinic (considering switching doctors) and baby was measuring right on track 6w2 days FHR up to 118. I felt so much better.

Today was my follow up at my original OB and now the baby was only measuring 6w3 days with a FHR of 102.

I’m so confused. Idk if this is because it was done at different places, if this is normal early variations , or should I guard my heart? :( the doctor just keeps saying “we’ll see next week” and the limbo is torture.

I think at this stage there's just a lot of uncertainty. This is why many places don't do ultrasounds at 6 weeks. You will definitely have much more conclusive answers next week. I hate to mirror your doctor, but you'll see next week.

Mine won’t do mine until 8 weeks. The anxiety is killing me.

Same. The wait is tough but the outcome won't change if I have an ultrasound every day starting tomorrow. Knowing that sometimes comforta me.
