I went in for an us and i thought that i was about 5 weeks pregnant the us said that i was 6 weeks and 1 day.  they didnt see anything but the yolk sac no hb or fetal pole?  my hcg has been increasing and my progesterone levels are great.  currently my hcg level is 74,034.  so should i be worried.  we suffered a blighted ovum in march of this year so we are very nervous.  I have all the pregnancy symptoms.  we go back for another us in one week so i should be 7 weeks per LMP and 8 weeks per last us?

It's still a little early for a hb. Sometimes you have one at that point and sometimes you don't. ANd I asked about blighted ovums last week and I think the doctor's office told me that it means you have a gestational sac but nothing else. If you have a yolk sac inside the gestational sac, I think that means everything is ok. I had an u/s at 6 wks and there was barely a little speck above the yolk sac that they said was the baby, but it wasn't nearly big enough to be able to measure the fetal pole. (The fetal pole is just the measure of the baby from head to rump.)

Your hcg numbers are really good, so I wouldn't worry about anything! Congratulations!
