    1pj - how scary for you..... it's very early in your pregnancy by the sounds of things.... and like the girls said, you can't see much if you are only 5wks pregnant.
    Once you are about 6wks3days pregnant onwards you can see more. A HB is usually only detected from about 6wks onwards..... especially after 7wks... that's why i chose to wait til 8wks to have my scan.
    If you can wait 2 more weeks then have another scan you will see more hope all is fine anyway.

    Thanks heaps!On my write up sheet it said that all sac etc has no abnormalities so hopefully that sounds good too,and it says go back in 2 weeks but my doc said maybe leave 3 weeks for a better chance of seeing things,what do you think?i cant wait that long for one and another thing is we go away in less than 5 weeks,id like to know and have any other tests done etc before then you know?Would 2 weeks show much difference?

    I would wait the 3 weeks if you can hold on that long as you will see so much more and be more reasured!!

    I had a miss in my first preg so you can imagine how stressed i was 2nd time round!!!!

    When i saw OB at 6 weeks 4 days he did a scan in his rooms and fetal heart was slow and he said may or may not work he got me back in 2 weeks at 8 weeks 4 days and all was fantastic strong heart beat and little bean!!


    So hang on and wait as hard as it is I know but so much relief can be felt by waiting that little bit longer.

    Fingers crossed for you
