So by my LMP I should be 6+1, but I know I ovulate late and have a 33-35 day cycle which would make me around 5+2.
so I had an ultrasound today and there was an empty gestational sac. I am a midwife so I came out confused as the sonographer said it’s fine and my dates are likely to be out. But the EPU nurse said to prepare for the worst and sent me for my beta hcg - so I came back to work and the consultant went to have a a look. He came back and said the sac was measuring 5 weeks, it was nice and circular and in healthy uterine tissue not suggestive of miscarriage and his personal opinion is I’m 5 weeks.
My beta hcg levels came back after a couple of hours and they were 13865 so they don’t want a repeat draw just a repeat scan.
arw those levels normal for 5 weeks?
