Jemmad: it can take up to 8 weeks to get a hearbeat. don't lose hope!!! If it's too early for a heartbeat then all they will see is embryo growth.
Ultrasounds can be several days to a week off. They were off the first half of my pregnancy and kept telling me I was due a week later than I thought I was... I KNEW When I conceived however they told me  that I was right later on. :)

Hey there, yes i was the same, to beggin with they thought what turned out to be my sack as possibly just a clot of blood... that was at 4w5... i went bk in wk after wk it wasn't untill i was nearly 7 week's that they could see the start of the baby.. they could just be being very carefull and i'll keep my fingers crossed for you xxx

They probably just want you to wait a week without doing the bloodwork because something could still show up next week that you didnt see today.  You after all are only about 6 weeks now.  I hope that everything goes okay at your next ultrasound and I will keep you in my thoughts.. Good Luck

alot of people dont get a heart beat till later on. I was 6 weeks before I had a heartbeat and I know plenty of peaope who were 7/8 weeks so dont be discouraged yet.
