8 wk6d pregnant strong heartbeat measuring 3 days behind

I am currently pregnant through ivf.  I am 8 wks 6d pregnant but only measuring 8wk 3d.  It has been consistent that I have been measuring 3 days behind for 2 u/s already and was wondering if I should have any concerns since it is 3 days behind?  The baby has a strong heartbeat which we've seen twice so that's a good thing, I'm just worried about the measurements... any thoughts???  Has anyone had this happen and things turn out just fine? Thx!!!

I have heard dr.'s say that IVF babies always measure smaller for whatever reason. So as long as you have a strong heartbeat I would try not to worry!

thats just fine remember thats based on period date not concption date. i think when i had my first ultrsound at 7 weeks i was a day or 2 behind. there is no need to worry at all. :)
