Hi,

Sometimes there can be a discrepancy between gestational age by dates and by scan.

CRL of 2.1 mm and pregnancy corresponding to 5+5 weeks is not a matter of concern. Scan has to be repeated after 2 weeks to see if there was increase in CRL and for appearance of cardiac activity.

Report to hospital if any pain in the abdomen or bleeding.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
