no yolk sac at 5 wks 4 days

[guatmommy]

I had an u/s this past Tues and there was a pregnancy but no yolk sac present.  My hcg level was 10,000 which went up appropraitely from the previous test.  Dr said my cervix was closed and uterus was soft as a pregnant uterus should be.  I just had a miscarriage in July due to abnormal chromosonmes.  I am so nervous.  I bled Mon night one time.  Then I bled on Wed one time.  A little clotting too.  Dr said this could be just normal spotting.  I go back on Tues for a repeat u/s and am just so nervous.  He did say sometimes the sac is hard to see if it is behind the placenta.  I also know I have a retroverted utuerus- if that matters- basically it is upside down.  Just want to kow if anyone has had similar experiences of not seeing and then seeing at 5+ wks.  Today I am 6 weeks and 1 day and hoping and praying to god that all is ok and when I go back on Tues (which seems so far away) that they will see the sac!!  Any advice/comments are welcome.

Well, I have great news!!!  Just came from the doctor and we have a heartbeat!!!!  She said "Congratulations you are VERY pregnant."  I told her I feel like ****.... she told me that is great..lol..  I am so tierd, achy, headache... she said all good signs.  Gave me some iron pills to try to pep me up a bit, tested me for anemia.  Did the whole pregnancy bloodwork  :-)  Tomorrow I go see thehigh risk doctor.  I am just so excited!!!!

I know how you feel, I had 3 in a row in the course of 6 months. Did they tell you they thought it was a miss? If you had blood work today, call your drs office tomorrow and ask for the results. Have you ever had a quantative hcg level done before in this pregnancy?

Thank you for ur reply back, I guess I may be over reacting but I dont think I can handle another miscarriage.

I had blood work today and I go back on wednesday for more to see if my HCG level went up or down, I guess the doctors treat it like a miscarriage and tell me to just wait it out, and its really hard.
