Is this really happening?

I got my bfp in mid feb and subsequently had a scan before I went on holiday at 5+3 Which only showed yolk & sac. I'm now 8+5 and finding it hard to believe a baby is actually growing in me and it's all going to happen - I'm so desperate for it to all be ok. I've got sore boobs, different appetite, pee more, drink more and some days definitely tired more BUT no morning sickness and know severe symptoms. I just soooo want to see my growing/ healthy baby on screen- I'm going for a private scan next Saturday at 9+5

WEll....I had an early scan and saw yolk and sac at about 5/6 weeks....was told too early to see baby and had to wait till 8 weeks......usually thats the case....baby and heartbeat normally seen 8 weeks plus everyone different tho....try not to worry xxxxxxx

5+3 is far too early to see anything other than the sac & yolk. I had MMC at 12 week scan and they said although the sac was as big as a 12 week pregnancy but the growth inside was about 5 weeks (just the sac & yolk). They wanted me to wait another week as they said by that time they should be able to at least see the feotal pole.

There's absolutely nothing to worry about as that is a totally normal scan for that stage in pregnancy. Don't worry about not having morning sickness, a lot of people don't get it at all.

You'll see a big difference at your next scan.
