Should i follow up or should i wait?

hi everyone,

would appreciate any advice. i interviewed for a job i really want a week ago, the interviews were with 2 members of the team. sent thank you notes on the same day and got immediate responses from both the interviewers. towards the end of last week i emailed the HR manager asking if she had any updates from the hiring manager and she responded saying that they have a few interviews to get over with and then they will decide who goes to next stage and should let me know by end of this week. I am contemplating emailing the hiring manager directly with a quick follow up email given that it has been a week. Do you think this is a good idea or should i just wait to hear back

thank you
