Question about 5w u/s
| Tue, 07-11-2006 - 6:25pm |
Hi again ladies...I posted in the 1T chat section but thought I'd post here too....
I went in for my first u/s yesterday and at 5w1d we saw a gestational sac measuring 7mm. Mr dr. was really pleased with it because it was almost perfectly round and it was a whole 5mm bigger that the one we saw at the same gestational age back in August before my m/c. I asked him if it was okay that there was nothing visible inside it it, and he said yes since it is still so early. But I know at that stage some people can see a yolk sac in there. Has anyone else only seen a gestational sac at 5w? My next appointment is 4 weeks away so I won't know anything till then.
Thanks-you all are great.


I had an u/s at 5wks and 4 days but it was really, really small and the heartrate was a little low. The little bean was just getting going. And especially in the early days beans grow so quickly that I wouldn't be surprised to go from sight-unseen to teeny-bean-baby in just 4 days.
That said, I know you will still worry. You can ask your doc for a scan earlier or the HCG is an option like the pp said. Anyway, I hope you don't worry too much.
I'm sending you a fabulously healthy 9 month vibes.
