Fetus measuring young than Dr expected (IVF baby)

Finally got my first BFP on 3/11/19, after my 3rd FET on 2/28/19! I believe it was a 5 day Blastocyst. At my 1st ultrasound this morning, the Dr advised that I'm 6 weeks and 2 days pregnant, however, my fetus measured out to be 5 weeks and 6 days instead. He said he's not really concerned, that the embryo probably just implanted a couple days later, rather than immediately after transfer. No heartbeat was detected yet, but it's still early, so no concern from dr. But he said that next week I should definitely see a heartbeat, since I'll be 6 weeks and 6 days, or he'll consider it an abnormal pregnancy. Has this happened to anyone, with regards to the Dr's estimated aging vs. the actual measurement? And should I be concerned??? Help!

    If your doc says it could have implanted late, that’s what I would go with. Also, this bmb is for women due in March 2019, so most of us are having our babies this month. You’d probably want to find the correct group since most of this one has migrated to private groups and it is t very active.
