Just a question

Hey,
Im new to the whole pregnancy thing :-) So heres my story,
After a positive home test, i went to the doctor who guessed I was about 6 weeks.
He sent me for an ultrasound, they said there was a gestation sack and yolk sac but no heartbeat. She said this could be due to me being earlier that the doctor thought and i have to go back in two weeks.
Is there anything to worry about, or was it just too early?

Ask your doctor for some literature about the development of a fetus. It might be too early for the heart to have developed. Good Luck with your pregnancy!

I would look it up on the computer, but I am pretty sure that the heart doesnt develope until about 7 weeks. Good luck hun. I hope all works out for the best.
