Baby size during first trimester

Hi mommies, I’m a little anxious and I’m hoping to get some assurance here 🙏🏻 I’m currently 8 weeks pregnant. More specifically when I went for my US last Friday, I was 8 weeks 1 day. Today the baby measures 8 weeks 3 days instead of 8 weeks 5 days. I’m worried that the baby isn’t growing as well as she should. Does anyone has any experience with this ? Is it because I am not eating enough for baby to grow? Also to share - I’ve had 2 MC in the past 6 months so anything abnormal now is making me very very anxious … 😥

I think at first trimester the baby is still small so from ultrasound the gynae can't really tell if baby length is the full length so it's just an estimation. I'm at second trimester now and previously during my first few appointments, baby seemed really small sized as well. Stay positive and worry less all the best!
