GESTATION SAC

[journey741]

Would someone tell me when their gestational sac showed. Was it at 4weeks or 5weeks.  Is it normal not to see a gestation sac at 5weeks 2days.

Hi I tried to post twice yesterday and I'm sure if you've gotten the post.  I spotted all the way until 8wks.  I'm now 10wks.  The Dr. said it was common to spot but not normal.

Hi

I am 5 weeks pregnant and completely understand every word you say.  I have the same fears as you, when I pee I check the toilet paper, if there is a slight cramo I wonder what is happening.  I think I will have a heart attache from the stress of trying to stay pregnant

Thank everyone so very much.

when I found out I am pregnant.... it's about 6 weeks +. since I am 38 years old.. my doctor see me every week until 13 weeks...  just want to make sure baby is growing.  Today is my last weekly appointment.. I will see my doctor monthly now..

Our body right now trying to make room for the baby so you will feel all the cramps, sharp pains, even feel very uncomfortable in your tummy.. as long as it's not persistent and intense..  you should be fine..

Yes.. I got scare of everything.. since I have been trying for 21 months and especially my age... I could be in high risk pregnancy... It's make me more scare...

When I reach to second trimester... I feel little easy to breath.. still scare.. but not as much as in first trimester...

my only advice to you.. take it easy for the first trimester... If needed, bed rest always be the best option... I was on bed rest since 9 weeks due to the bleeding...Just think happy and try to relax.. whatever you feel or think, its always affect the development of the baby... You can't think of yourself anymore.. It's the baby now.

Enjoy 9 months journey.. it's will be rocky, but it's worth it.  

Take care

You know exactly the way I feel.  I'm scared of everything.  My left side gets pain from time to time. and when I did my us we didn't see anything. Is 6weeks the first time you seen something.  Thanks for responding.

about 6 weeks+, my doctor able to see the gestation sac, fetal pole, and heartbeat.

5 weeks is too early to see anything... I got scare each day.. when my tummy cramp.. I got scare..when i have sharp pain. i got scare... even when i go pee.. I am scare to see blood so i always look down when i pee.

I am 13 weeks 4 days today and still scare every moment.. i think i am going to have heart attack soon if i am keep scaring like this... :-)

Your will be fine... Congrats and good luck to you.

Thanks very much.  Everything starting to scare me.  I know I suppose to walk by faith and not by sight.

Then that would be correct, @ just under 700, you wouldn't see anything yet.  Don't worry too much, I'm sure they'll repeat it in a few days (which will feel like in a few years!)

Are you exactly 5weeks.  Are you at the beginning or end?

my 5 week u/s showed the sac but not the fetal pole

[journey741]

yes. but my level is 679.  I didn't implant until last Tuesday.

Levels need to be over 1000,  (HCG) typically over 1500+ then you SHOULD be able to see the sac.  Did you just get an US done?
