I was told that nothing would show on a scan until 8 weeks. I had some bleeding at 5 weeks and had to wait until 8 weeks until they could check to see if there a viable feotus. so don't worry, it's just too early to see anything

Did they do an external or internal scan? I went for my first one thinking I was at least 10 weeks. They couldn't find anything externally but she did an internal and found a blob with a heartbeat that measured 6 weeks 5 days. 5 weeks is a bit early to see much though.

an internal scan is in your vagina, so i assume you would remember that and it was an external scan...normally they have to do an internal up to 6 weeks and even then they dont always see a foetus..but you will have to assume all is well as you have not had any sign of miscarriage...some people like to take another test to confirm they are still pregnant or your doctor can take bloods over a few days to check hormone levels are rising...

This scenario is very common on other sites and it usually turns out ok on the next scan. It is prob just too early. The next 2 weeks will feel like an eternity! If u were further than 5/6 weeks I'd b worried about being ectopic but if the doc thought there was a chance of that they would have tested u straight away. Keep us updated x
