Hello
U should get a scan done around 6/7 weeks and it's not too early
This helps to confirm diagnosis
See the fetal cardiac activity
Location of gestation sac
Yr whole preg baby growth will be determined as per this USG report.
Yr expected date of delivery will be determined by this scan
Any many other things
So go ahead for the scan
Stay calm
N enjoy the pregnancy
