A. If a heartbeat was found at the last scan, then we normally consider scan dating to be more accurate, as it is difficult to determine precisely when conception / fertilisation occurs, even in intances where only one sexual intercourse has taken place. Another scan in two weeks will help that if you or GP feel this is necessary.
