It happened to me almost 2 weeks a go.. I even had an internal. The scan lady left me feeling terrible as she was asking me questions like have you had any bleeding? I was like OMG why?? Is there no baby. After thinking over and over in my head and many tears later I got in touch with my midwife who reassured me everything is fine and baby could have possibly been in a difficult place or perhaps i was not as far a long as i was??
My midwife booked me in for another scan for 2 weeks later which is this Thursday and hopefully we will see the little bean. I wouldn't worry too much.
The sack is very normal and if you are that worried ask your doctor or midwife to book another scan for days time. I had that happen to me! I was so dissapointed lol I was six weeks and so looking forward to my first ever ultra sound and expected to see my bubba in there waving to me lol But no, just a sack!
We called her "yolky bear" for months because she was just a yolk sac lol But all went well, and i had a healthy baby girl 34 weeks later smile Dont worry, just look forward to the next ultrasound!
Posted Tuesday 04 January In my case they did find DD2 once they did an internal except I had thought I was weeks and I was actually only 6 weeks 1 day meaning I must have missed an AF the month before she was conceived. I wouldn't worry too much right now as there is nothing you can do either way just hang in there and hopefully your little bub will show up in a later scan. When I had my second pregnancy I had a scan at 5 weeks due to complications of 1st preg -they couldn't find anything, we were both unsure am I pregnant?
The baby did grow and at the 20 week scan we found out we were having twins! Good luck and don't worry to much!! My first scan turned out to be very early like 5 weeks could only see sac Well girls I got through the weekend and still no cramping or bleeding. A couple of times,I felt a kind of stretching, like a growing pain, in my abdomen. I will hopefully speak with my GP later today and see what she has to say about it all.
Pregnancy is one messed up experience! Pls send all your good feelings our way! What is meant to be will be. Hi emmsie — your symptoms do sound promising at the moment but its all such a waiting game.

Sorry — I had said positive test in my first post — that is what bfp is — big fat positive. I was saying that if you know when you got your positive test you may know that you couldnt have ovulated too late — depends on when you did your pregnancy test. Do you know how many weeks past lmp you did you test at? Did another HPT on 26 January and got positive weeks. I guess if I ovulated very late,it is possible that I was only just pregnant ie just a week since fertilisation on 26 jan which would make me only 8 and a half weeks now.
This limbo is just horrendous.
No Baby OR Sac on Scan?!
Hi emmsiebubbles when are you heading for another scan? Fingers and toes still crossed for you!! Still no cramping, can only be a good thing!! I dont know what to be hopeful about anymore.

My GP just rang there. She is sending me to maternity for scan on wed. You know, I think I would cope ok if i knew I was definitely miscarrying. All you girls have been so fantastic tho, thanks so much. At the mo no news is good news in a way I think! My heart goes out to you being stuck in limbo like this!! Hi emmsie, god my heart really goes out to ya but as the other girls have said when there is no bleeding or cramping that is a good sign.
Hi again emmsie — given that you got a positive test back in January you can be sure of your dates so the only problem could be either with the scanning machine used in the clinic or with the pregnancy itself.

You poor thing — I do know what that waiting time is like but in my case I was sure of my dates too — I went for a scan at 9wks one time and only saw 6wk old on scan and although they said come back in a week I knew in my heart things were not right and I was right. Following that when I got pregnant they couldnt see much on scan and they did the blood tests the girls have referred to above to see if levels are rising and again mine were not.
I had a couple of early scans on this pregnancy for reassurance in a private clinic and I found their machine to be actually way superior to the one in the EPU. I didnt even need a full bladder and they did both external and internal scan. The minute they put the scanner on my tummy the baby popped up with heart beating away and I was only 6wks 5 days.
They did an internal as well just to double check everything especially with my history. However as I said it will depend on the clinic — mostly though they are pretty confident that they will see a heartbeat once you pass the 7wk mark. I dont know what to say to you — the fact that you have pregnancy symptoms is good and the stretching pains etc that you describe sound encouraging so hopefully it was just where the baby was lying and a bad scanning machine and the next time you go all will be ok.
Are you paying the private clinic for a second scan?? If so, would you not just think of going to the early pregnancy unit in your maternity hospital which would be free??
Why would I have a dating scan?
Especially in case there might be a problem as you would be referred there after next scan anyway ……. Sorry emmsie — hadnt read the posts on the 2nd page — doh!!! I see your gp is referring you to the maternity tomorrow — sorry to hear there was no growth on the last scan. Fingers crossed for a miracle tomorrow …… take care xx. Just been reading your posts…I really hope you get positive news. It could really go any way…a friend of mine went through slightly similar, and all was ok, her dates were off by about week and half.
For me, mine was a missed mc.

A scan at 8 weeks showed sac, but no baby. Had another scan a week later, and was still same. Had had no bleeding or cramping etc, no signs of mc. Was hard to believe as had nothing to suggest had mc, even still had morning sickness. So, as I say, it can go either way, and am praying you get good results. Hi markyboy,thanks for posting. The waiting is just awful tho.
How is a dating scan performed?
Emmsiebubbles I really really hope its good news for you. The waiting is absolutely horrible and never ending. I went through similar with my last pregnancy. I did have terrible pain in one side when I was only 6 weeks I was convinced I was miscarrying. She told me she could see the sac and no heartbeat and that it was tiny and the chances were that I would miscarry. I went home devestated. They did take blood test to see what my hormone levels were and asked me to come back in a couple of days early in morn to have more bloods taken which I did.
They told me at that stage that my hormones had slightly risen but not enough and to go home and see what happens. I was told I had to be re-scanned in 10 days and it was like an eternity. Then I asked for a second opinion and was scanned by an older mid-wife who really took her time and totally relaxed me, and even though it took her what seemed like forever she did find the heartbeat. She said my womb was tilted which is why they found it so hard to find. SO fingers crossed your news will be good also. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
He was pretty awful. I complained him and he was slightly more personable the second time round. He spent less than two mins on each scan. Your story sounds full of hope, HelloMama.
