6 weeks 1 day no fetal pole please help

[Tory123]

Hello

I had IVF egg collection on the 11th July and got BFP. I went for ultra sound both on stomach and vignal scan yesterday when I was 6 wekks and 1 day and they could see sac measuring 16mm and egg measuring 2mm but no embroy or fetal pole.

The FS said it may be too earlier to see anything but I am just going out of my mine with worry as expected to see something.

Has anyone else had this and then gone back and seen something at a later scan?

I had something similar when I had a bleed at 5 weeks. I had a scan and they could see a sac (I think) but no embryo or heartbeat. I then couldn't go for a scan for 3 weeks as I was stranded abroad and was still bleeding all the time. I went out of my mind with worry and trawled the net for positive stories etc to keep me upbeat.

Anyway, went back at 8 weeks for a scan and the heartbeat was there. She is now a loud 8 month old

So keep positive, try not to stress- what happens happens for a reason but I'm sending you a big and keeping finger crossed for you xx

Hello, this must be stressful and the only thing I can offer is that my fertility specialist will not do the first scan until 7 weeks so hang in there and think positive!

I've had scans at 6w with this pregnancy and my last one that showed a yolk sac and no fetal pole, and each time, a week later, there was a little beating heart there. So some babies are just slower to develop that others

Thank you for your support and advice. Going out my mind with worry but it seems all I can do now is wait.

Just wanted to wish you luck. I had my 1st scan at 5w4d last time around and doc could only see a sac. Went back at 7 weeks and saw a heartbeat. (He is now 15 months old) Best Wishes!

I think sometimes as good as the internet can be sometimes it can make you worry. My sac last week was 16mm and 16.3 and quite a few medical pages say if a sac is over 16mm and no fetal pole can be found then it is not a viable pregnancy how wrong can they sometimes be x

I had the same thing happen at either late five weeks or early six weeks. I was told that it could be too early or it could be blighted ovum. So I am now in the wait game. I am glad to read your story. There are many others like it on the web so I am going to keep faith. Some women were up to eight/nine weeks before they saw anything because of a tilted uterus. I am going to hold on and have faith that I am in the same boat. Despite the fact that it could be an empty sac, I definitely feel very pregnant.

Wow! that's awesome news so glad all is well

I had an empty sac at 5 weeks...try not to worry too much, if you have all the symptoms you'll be fine

 

[Storm1jet2]

What fantastic news and not only one but two!

 

[smellie_melli]

Soooooo happy for you

Enjoy your pregnancy and get lots of rest! xx

That's amazingly great! I am both relieved and happy for you and your hubby!

I went in at 5+4 and there was nothing...just a gestational sac, not even a yolk. They thought my dates were off, but they weren't. Anyway, a week later it had started to develop and by 2 weeks later it was on track for my dates. 6 weeks is so early and some just grow faster than others, or are harder to see. Hang in there and hope all is ok!!
