I wouldn't worry hon..... It took up to almost 9 weeks before my daughter's heartbeat was seen..... The ER doc told me in JAN when I had my m/c that at 6 weeks the baby is too small to even see....
Doc isn't so optimistic. He said that normally with a gestational sac that big, we can see a fetus and a heartbeat, and my ultrasound is indicating a blighted ovum right now, but he doesn't want to jump to conclusions, considering the sac was right on schedule and the fact that I didn't even see my daughter until 6w4d. So, I have another ultrasound scheduled for Friday at 12:30pm and I see him again on Friday at 7:30pm.
I have never had a belightned ovum or a molar pregnancy, but I know when I was four weeks pregnant they did a u/s for dating purposes and they were not able to see anthing. When I was 6 weeks there was a gestational sac, yolk sac and a fetal pole. If the doctor did not seem concerned then maybe there is nothing wrong but i do have to agree that if they dont see anything by 7 weeks then there is probably a problem. Good Luck.
sometime women don;t see the fetal pole til 7 weeks. you still have a chance. are your hcg levels rising? i would have them check those tomorrow and again on Thursday or Friday.
I would wait until the other u/s I had a blighted ovum at 7 weeks which they said they should have seen something by then. Good luck and keep us posted
i was about this far along when my doc. told me I was having a blighted ovum. I waited a couple more weeks for another ultra. & it still showed nothing. Just try not to worry as hard as that is, but there is a chance that your baby could still be there :)
Not really. Apparently sometimes it can take up to 8 weeks to see a fetus. When given that I didn't see my daughter until 6w4d, I'm not too concerned.
Yeah...I guess a week is good...but waiting can be so awful! However I'm sure that you'll have a more definitive answer in a week...did they seem concerned?
I don't have one scheduled yet, but the radiologist recommended to have another next week
I guess with your history of not seeing your daughter until 6w4d you shouldn't rule anything out...miracles do happen! Sounds like a blighted ovum to me though...sorry to say it...I feel guilty now....the missing pole is what makes me think so...when are you doing another u/s?
