18 weeks tech couldn't find babies stomach

The tech couldn't find the babies stomach. I am 18 weeks. She said it could be because the baby didn't eat yet. But I'm worried they scheduled an appt next week for a level 2 ultrasound is this normal

Everything is so small yet at my 18 ultrasound they couldn't see the heart but it was clearly there cuz the baby was kicking and moving. Onve things get a little bit bigger I'm sure everything will show normally.
