Stupid first tri concern after first u/s

Since I have not had a period (I was bfing) I am not completely sure on my dates.  However, we are pretty sure we pinpointed when it happened.

I figured I was about 5 weeks 3 days yesterday when I had my u/s. The tech said it was measuring 4 weeks 5 days.  (Gestational sak and yolk sak.)  She said everything looked fine and normal and to come back in a week and she was confident we would have a heartbeat.

However, if I am only 4 weeks and 5 days it seems like it would be impossible for me to get a positive test when I did.  I guess I am just worried this little guy or girl stopped growing;(  UGGGG why can't I relax?  Anyone else have something similar happen and everything be ok?

As a side note I have had no bleeding/cramping/history of m/c and they were taking my hcg levels up until last fri and they were well over doubling.  Thank you so much for reading my rambelings and for any insight!

    My first u/s with DD was off by four days- I'd been charting and got a bfp at 10dpo so I was positive of the day I concieved. She's a happy, healthy three-year-old now so everything turned out just fine. Good luck- I'm guessing everything is fine!

    Thanx PMQ;)  I needed that;)  It just seems crazy that I got a positive test sooooo early if I am at the point she said I am.  Ok...going into relaxation and feeding kids breakfast mode!

    My first US with DD showed her about 6 days behind where I should have been.  With a history of miscarriages everyone, including my doctor (RE), was a little concerned.  But, by the next ultrasound, about a week later, she was right where she needed to be.  Now she's a happy healthy 17month old.  Try not to worry.  Good luck to you.

    I thought I was 7 weeks at my first appt with Noah, but they told me I was 5 w 5 d.  That's 9 days difference.  Scary.  I thought my Edd should have been 12-27-06, but they told me 1-5-07.  Noah was born 12-23-06.  I've always wondered if he was that early or if really they screwed up my initial EDD, although he did grow pretty consistent with that date.

    eta: Oh, and with the date they gave me, that put me finding out at 3 w 3 d pregnant.  So, WAY early.
