Relax - folic acid!: Erroneous pregnancy dates are very common in the setting you describe - trust the sonographic measurements more than your recollection of your last menstrual period, take Folic Acid 1-5 mg daily and maintain a positive attitude. Miscarriage is a risk for any early pregnancy - you are no different, however the detection of embryonic cardiac activity decreases your risk to ~10% only. Congratulations.
