Should i seek a second opinion?

Today i went to KKH to get a scan of my baby. The foetus was there but according to the gynae there is no heartbeat. However, there are two conflicting accounts that i've heard: Lady who did the scan said its at 5 weeks+ Gynae said its 8 weeks+ They are giving it the benefit of the doubt and highlighted possible miscarriage. Im quite anxious over this - wondering if i shld go to private to seek second opinion?

Can go seek second opinion if you have any doubts. If the gynae mentioned you’re 8weeks plus based on last period, and the sonographer says baby measures around 5weeks plus in the scan, then unfortunately, I think chances that your baby has already stopped growing inside is quite high. This happened for my 1st pregnancy. Baby stopped growing inside, and measured smaller during scan. Couldn’t detect heartbeat also. I had heavy bleeding few days later and gynae confirmed miscarriage.
