Absolutely terrified

Found out I was pregnant Monday. Very suprised to say the least. Last period was 12th October. Hospital wanted to see me today for a scan as I only had my eggs frozen on 29th September due to ohss. Scan revealed very thick lining which is brill. However no sac. Faint positive. I have been told I'm either very early on or it is ectopic. I have had bloods done today but I'm so scared. Has anyone else been in same position? Xx

A gestational sac is one of the first signs of pregnancy that can be seen on a transvaginal ultrasound (an abdominal ultrasound is much less accurate this early in pregnancy.) It is usually seen on ultrasound by 5 weeks gestational age but is sometimes seen as early as 3 weeks.

I found the above information on a website, it might be just a little too early for the sac to be seen. Got everything crossed for you 🤞 Xxx

Fingers crossed. If this is ectopic I will be devastated. This whole process is just so cruel. Xx

Perhaps it is too early in pregnancy to detect a sac. Did the hospital ask you to come back for another scan? The bloods are likely to examine hcg levels. I had an ectopic pregnancy 4 years ago which was detected at roughly 8 weeks pregnant. Hopefully this isn't the case for you and that it's just a case of too early on to see anything in a scan. Take care and let us all know how things go for you.xo
