When is the very earliest you would be able to see anything on an ultrasound? I am talking days after conception

Hi, I'm sorry my cycles are not 28 days. Do you know about how long after conception?

Is that based off of a 28 day cycle?

4-6 weeks means about 2-4 weeks after conception.

So you would say about 14 days after conception. Do you happen to know what the measurements would be? I think I read somewhere the earliest you could see anything on an ultrasound was 4 wks 5 days

That sounds right. By 5 weeks or so, is when you can expect to see something...so that would be about 3 weeks after conception. But for some, it's closer to 6 weeks (4 weeks after conception).

That's probably true but not all women and pregnancies are the same some can't see anything that early. Are you pg? How far along are u?

Well, I am 24 weeks now. But I early in my pregnancy, I had an ultrasound at 4 wks 5 days and it showed a gestational sac measuring 8 mm, and what looked also like a yolk sac. I just thought a measurement of 8mm was a little big for 4wks 5days

Don't know about that. But if you're fine now, then what is the problem? Is your baby measuring big/small?

Usually you can see something or a sac at 5 weeks.
