Panicking- please help

I went to my RE this morning for bloodwork and a sonogram.
At the sonogram, the dr. said that we might see a heartbeat today, and if we do, that is great b/c the further the embryo is developed at this point, the less of a chance of miscarraige.

He went in there, and there was no heartbeat. I got very upset but he and the nurse both said that it is probably too early. But I don't think it is too early!

I surged and BDd on July 21 and July 22.....and I am positive that is when I conceived. My last pd. was July 5. So, that means I'm 6 weeks 2 days. Right?

I'm so conused. So many of you saw a hb this early.....do you think everything is okay?

I am going back next week and they hope to see a yolk sack and hb. Again, my last pd. was July 5 and my conception was July 21, 22.

Did anyone else go through this?

That is still early. You could be off by a few days and that would make you less than 6 weeks. I didn't see the hb until 6 and a half weeks.

If it makes you feel any better we didn't see the HB until 6w5d and we didn't hear it until 7w5d so you could still be a little early. Don't worry yet, chances are everything is fine. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Try not to get too upset... that is REALLY a borderline time....

at 5.5 weeks we saw only a sac, and at 7 weeks 1 day we saw a heartbeat.

Any time prior to 7 weeks is basically borderline

Re: Panicking- please help

I did not see the heartbeat until I was in my 7th week....I had to go back 3 times because I ovulated late. It is stressful, but have faith! Chat Icon

Re: Panicking- please help

just because you got your surge on 7/21 or 7/22 doesn't mean you O'd the 22nd, or even the 23rd - sometimes ovulatiuon is delayed. plus, you could have had a late implanter. so even though based on your LMP you are about 6 weeks 2 days, the reality is that your pregnancy may not be as far along as you think. try not to panic, and in a week you should see more Chat Icon

My doc wouldn't see me before 7 weeks because it's often too early to see the heart beat. we saw and heard the heartbeat the first time at 8 weeks, 2days. I went to a different doc who would see me early 3 weeks earlier and that doc saw nothing...just some thickening at that time. Don't worry!!

ITA. And I will also say depending on the sensitivity of the sono machine and the skill of the tech, even if this date is accurate it may not show.Chat Icon

I agree... just a couple of days can make a huge difference. We didn't saw the heartbeat at 6w4d, and they were still pretty faint at that point. It was another week until we were able to hear the heartbeat.
