5 weeks 5 days ultrasound

[mimi7786]

I just went in for a transvaginal ultrasound yesterday (11/10) and the tech told me that I was 5 weeks and 5 days. She said she could see the sac and the yolk sac, but no baby yet. She told me this is normal and that the doctor will schedule me for another one in about 1.5 weeks (she did). I am worried and scared to death. I'm 24 and both my husband and I are very excited about having our first child. Please help put my mind at ease. Thank you in advance for any replies.

Thank you ladies for your comforting replies.  Stillk worried, but I have an upcoming u/s in less than 2 weeks.  Hoping for the best.

I agree its to early yet I had numerous scans in the early stages,somtimes they must do them to rule out eptopic,and to make sure in right place,im sure your next scan you will see a foetus congrats..

I think you are fine, too.  That is too early for an ultrasound and it baffles me why doctors schedule them so early when all it does is freak everyone out.  In a week or two's time, you should be able to see the baby just fine.  Best of luck to you!  And, don't stress...it's not good for your baby! :-)

What are you worried about? Just not seeing the child yet? If so, don't worry. It is very normal for things like this to happen. Early scans often do no good except to worry the parents more than needed. Usually it's easier to wait till you're 7-9 weeks before you get one. At that point nearly all people will see the embryo and a heartbeat. Don't worry. It sounds like everything's fine.
