Hi ladies, my pregnancy is high risk and I've only got one fallopian tube, so I had a scan today at 4 weeks and 5 days just to confirm that everything was in the right place, but nothing can be seen yet! Can anyone confirm if this is normal please and when you were first able to see something?
They've taken blood today and will take more on Wednesday to make sure my levels are doubling but I'm currently feeling disheartened and anxious xx

Hey hun.
Just to give you an idea, this was a scan at 5+6. Literally the beginning of the yolk sac can only be seen!

This is the start of my 2.5yr old toddler lol!

Did they say they will rescan in 7-14days?

Blood should reassure you in the mean time tho hun. Its hard not to panic and worry i know xxx
 
I think it's hard to see anything so early.

Hopefully the blood tests will show more.
 
Thank you, I really hope so, the thought of something going wrong now after everything we've been though is terrifyingly and heartbreaking! They're doing to do another scan next week, I just really need everything to be confirmed as being in the right place and fine xx
 
It's common not to see anything that early. My scan looked like babyslogs at 5+3 and they rescanned me a week later and there was a pole with a flickering heartbeat. I'm sure next week you'll see a little yolk sac yourself. X
 
But surely they would have seen a sac, not just nothing at all? Xx
 
Very common not to see anything hun. I think at 4-5 weeks the gestational sac would only measure around 3mm, and is usually only visible when hcg reaches around 2500 mark which (usually) is around 5 weeks. Also was the scan abdominal or vaginal? Xx
 
Yes ny sac only measured 5mm at 5+6 and thats how they dated me. I thought i was 6+2 at that point.

I was put bk forward sgain on my following scans.

Try not to worry too muxh hun. I really think the bloods will come back with doubles :) xx
 
Definitely sounds normal, try not to panic. Fx there's a lovely sac growing next week xxx
 
Hun really try not to worry I paid privately for an early scan and was told anything before 6 weeks was so hard to make out and anything before 5 weeks near impossible so please try and not read to much into it at all xx
 
Please don't stress! It is still soooo early! I've never heard of anyone being scanned before 6 weeks because of how unlikely it is you'll see anything. It is good that they're being proactive but you should definitely rely on bloods more than scans at this stage xxx
 
sounds normal most places wont scan until 6+ i went in last week thinking i was 6+4 they put me closer to 5+2 and said they wouldnt normaly scan any earlier as it causes a lot of worry. hope theyre re scanning soon xx
 
This is normal. I had a scan at 5 weeks and there was just a sav. Went back a week later and there was a flicker. Your numbers are really good. Just get plenty of rest hon x
 
Hey unicorn, I thought I was 8 weeks when I went for my scan and they measured me at 5 weeks, there was a sac and a tiny dot there but that's it xxx

Try not to stress, are they re-scanning you? How did you find the unit? Xx
 
Thank you so much.
I had both an abdominal and vaginal scan.
My blood results came back as 945 and I'm going back tomorrow for more so just really hope they double. They will then do another scan next week.
To be honest they freaked me out a bit at the unit. They conducted the scans as if they fully expected they were going to see something and kept saying that they couldn't find any evidence of a pregnancy! It wasn't until I got upset and asked them if they would expect to see anything at this stage that they said no, not really! She was then really eager to get the blood results to me and said she would try and ring me that evening, but if they were not back in time she would definitely ring me first thing in the morning. But then when I asked her if 945 seemed ok she just said 'well, it just indicates a very early pregnancy, so we can't really say until you have your next ones'. So why make a big deal out of getting the results to me.
I'm sure I'm just being overly sensitive but I didn't find them reassuring at all! xx
 
Excellent levels for stage ur at when i found out i was pregnant i was 8weeks an hcg was 37000 odd i nearly passed oot lol xx
 
I got 2-3 weeks on a digi this morning so things are definitely going in the right direction :-) xx
 
Hi unicorn, when I had my scan yesterday only 2 sacks were visible one measuring 7.8mm and the other 7.4mm (they think this one ha the failing twin. They said I am definitely no more than 6 weeks and couldn't see a clear yolk but told me they wouldn't expect to so early on. Next scan on 10th Dec xx what's the date of your rescan?
 
7.4 and 7.8 isn't a great difference one could have implanted slightly later ? Xx
