I had a scan at 6 weeks and they didn't see a fetal pole, however they THOUGHT they saw a heartbeat (but it was an old machine so they weren't sure). Then at 9 weeks I had another scan and we saw a healthy little bean moving around with a strong heartbeat.
The heartbeat starts between 5 1/2 weeks and 6 1/2 weeks, From what I've heard having a scan before 6 weeks just tends to scare people. Even at my 6 week scan we didn't see much at all.
What were your HCG numbers?
Hi, I also found out I was pregnant on the 9th of March was so excited it'll be our first. I then started on the 19th to bleed only a little but freaked out then had period like cramps over the weekend, I had a scan on the 21st but they couldnit see the fetal pole, I felt so depressed preparing myself for a miscarriage, the midwife said my dates might be out, and having read other peoples experience on this site and other sites it seems it might be too early to see anything, im going back for another scan on the 31st. Are you booked in for another scan, keep positive, I understand how your feeling. x
At this stage it's really too early to tell. Becuase of the small 3 day diff between your neg and pos tests It seems that you are very early on. If that's the case then you won't see much on an ultrasound. Is your doctory going to repeat the ultrasound? Has she ordered a Betga HCG test to see what your levels are?
