5 Week ultrasound - NO heartbeat No fetal pole. HELP!

[Kittyinga]

I am 6 weeks and 1 day today. Here is what has happened so far:

4 weeks (10/20) HCG = 524
4 wks 3dys (10/23) HCG = 1,993
4 wks 6 dys (10/26) HCG = 7,024

THEN

Ultrasound at exactly 5 weeks (10/27) = Showed sac but no fetal pole no heartbeat...

They are having me come in again this monday for another ultrasound (I'll be 6weeks 3 days then).

My question-

IS ALL THIS NORMAL?

WHEN CAN FETAL POLE BE SEEN?

WHEN CAN HEART BEAT BE SEEN?

ARE HCG'S NORMAL?


PLEASE HELP! ANYONE WITH INFO OR ADVICE!!

Thanks so much!!!

Thanks again and i'll let yall know what we see today!

Hi. New here. I lost 2 in the last yr but, just found out I'm pregnant again. I found out right before I got preg w/ this one that I am AP antibody positive for lupus. I have a new dr and he just did and ultrasound and shows I'm 5 wks 3 days and he told me before I went all we would see was the gest sac and that's all we did see so, I know how it feels... scares you to death. I'm so nervous w/ this one i'm going crazy.Dr started me on the low dose asprin right away and after this sono this wk(Hopefully I will see that lil heat beating away)8/21 I have to go to the high risk ob/gyn to get me started on the blood thinner. Thank God I changed drs otherwise, I would never have known why I was lost the first two and would have lost this one,praying all goes well.

so Kim.  it's been some time, i hope all turned out well for you.  my sister has lupus, she had 2 miscarriages.  both termed blighted ovum.  no yolk sac or fetal pole were in the gestational sac at even 7 weeks.  i just got pregnant.  i'm 6 weeks 3ish days.  yesterday i went to the doctor's and same thing for me- no yolk sac and no embryo yet.  i go to the hospital tomorrow for the stronger ultra sound machine to see if anything can be seen.  if not, they're saying it's not a viable pregnancy.  guess my question is- since my sister has lupus, i feel like i have something in common with you.   did everything turn out to be OK for you?

Hi - I'm new at this.  I did ivf about 9 months ago - got pregnant and lost at 7 weeks.  I am now pregnant again through a frozen embryo transfer.  I went to my dr. (i recently moved so he is new to me) and I measured 5 weeks 2 days - my hcg was 1479, we saw a sac but that was all.  At the end of the conversation my dr. said " don't worry we aren't going to throw the towel in on this pregnancy yet."  I have no idea what he meant by that.  Is it normal just to see a sac at this point?  I don't know whether to be worried or not.  Any advice??
