5 weeks 5 days no yolk

Hi all had a scan at the EPU today .. she saw an early gestational sac but no yolk. She said either too early or early failing pregnancy. I am about a week behind where I should be. Anyone had anything similar and it turned out ok ?

Hey lovely, sorry you have this worry. I’d say it is a little early. Can you get your HCg levels checked to be sure? Xxx

Thank you :( x I had the early scan as my hcg hasn’t doubled since Saturday so only slowly progressing so I got really worried about etopic ! She said 90% not etopic as can see sac however no yolk and from my dates I am a few days behind ! I don’t hold out much hope !

Ahh that’s a relief it isn’t ectopic but still a worry. You just never know though, a scan in another week or so could make all the difference.

Hoping for you 💞xxx

Thank you I am 6 weeks Friday so they should be able to start seeing something after that ... so will know more then .. I always do everything the hard way .. I have been in such a state today ! Feel so ill from crying etc. It’s so hard as I am so bloated and feel sick now so it’s like I am pregnant .. nothing is easy is it

When is your next scan? Oh bless you lovely. It’s so hard I know. Can you maybe listen to the Mindful app to calm you or another? It’s so difficult but it’s important to look after yourself 💞xxx

Thank you I think I prob need to as don’t handle stress very well. I can go to my clinic over weekend but I think it’s too early ... I have one at the EPU on Wednesday next week !

I think as hard as it is to wait, it may be worth waiting until Wednesday as having another scan too early could cause you extra stress and worry.

Definitely listen to an app and try and believe all is ok. Xxx

Glad to hear it’s not an ectopic. Did you do a frozen transfer? Sometimes they can be a bit slower to get going? I read measuring up to a week behind is fine it’s just only if it’s like 2 weeks behind that outcome doesn’t look good 🤞x

Yes it was frozen ! Glad it’s not etopic although I’m about a 4-6 behind so I am not holding out much hope. Thank you for messaging last night I really appreciate it ! It’s gonna be a long week x

Yes with my first. They rescanned me at 6 weeks and 2 days and there he was. Prayers and sticky baby thoughts your way.

Thank you so much ! X I just realised with my twins at the first scan at 6 weeks I did see a heartbeat which was very early etc however no other sac etc ... I only knew it was 2 a week later at 7 weeks when we saw 2 sacs and heartbeats x praying this is the same and just a bit early x

That’s super early to see anything in a scan, crossing my fingers it’s better news in a week or so xx

I would say it's still early. My sister had a bleed at under 6 weeks and when scanned they couldn't see much but just a slight heart beat. He is now a chirpy 9 month old. Praying it's better news for you next week xx

Its still quite early I would say however given that your hCG isn't doubling as it should, I also don't want to get your hopes up. Its horrible being in limbo land, thinking of you.xx

No I agree it’s defo going up but not quite doubling ... hands of gods now

So little update last Friday I did a FET and it was 2-3 weeks and just did one now and it’s saying 3+. I am 6 weeks today ? Does anyone know what the hcg is for 3+ weeks ??

Hk12 in reply tokc21

Kc21, just to clarify, are you referring to clear blue digital and wondering what’s the HCG level if it shows 3+?

kc21 profile image
kc21 in reply toHk12

Yea do you know abs how accurate it is ? My hcg Tuesday was 1630 so I wanted to try and work out what the minimum it might be ??

Hk12 profile image
Hk12 in reply tokc21

According to clearblue website (which I also found as one of the ladies kindly posted the link, 3+ threshold is 2753! 1-2 weeks is 10 and 2-3 weeks is 153

kc21 in reply toHk12

Yea I saw this ... I wonder if that’s accurate and that is minimum as that has raised my hope slightly xxx I wondered if anyone had a blood test and also done the test xx turning into a mad women !!

Hk12 in reply tokc21

I can’t really help on this but when I got 2-3, I at least believe that was correct as my beta level was higher than 100..

Just found the link, as it’s not easy to find. I don’t know how accurate it is, they say it’s 99 per cent accurate but is based on urine HCG so might somewhat be different from serum hcg

I think I’ve read the blood would be a higher hcg !
