US showed no baby?

[RainbowBrite]

So glad to hear the blood test came back with good news
I wish your sister the very best for her pregnancy.
I can't believe the sonographer...how rude and insensitive!
I would complain...she needs a good kick up the b*m to remind her what a good bed side manner is.

transvaginal u/s can pick up as early as 5 weeks....we were having U/S from 5 weeks with my last pregnancy

Geez that tech sounds like the one I had doing my DD's hip u/s at 6 weeks "I dunno why they sent you so early nothing will show up, you need to come when bubs is 10 weeks old, her adjusted age is only 2.5 weeks" on and on she went.

DD was in a Pavlik harness 3 days later...and at 10 weeks, when this chick thought we should be going back to check for hip issues, DD was OUT of her harness because we caught it early!

Some people have NO bedside manner, and I would really complain!

OMG what a horrible experience for your sister. Im glad the blood test showed good results for her!!!!

I'm sorry for your sisters news, can she really not leave work early? She doesn't have to say why she needs to go.

I'm sorry for your sisters news, can she really not leave work early? She doesn't have to say why she needs to go.

nah she is a travel agent and the manager. If she left, there would only be 1 other person in the store. She has to work a double tomorrow and friday so I have no idea what she will do I think she is going to have some friends come over tonight and get drunk

Thanks everyone for your replies.

I just heard back from my sister and her BT have risen, which means she has an ectopic pregnancy. She has the worst luck

She is going to the GP after work today to see what is the next stage. I think the GP mentioned early that they could wait and see if it passes, take a tablet or have an operation?

She says the cramps haven't been that bad but fairly heavy bleeding

Hope things pan out A OK for your sis.

I had kinda the same thing. Found out i had PCOS whilst trying to conceive #2 and then had her and fell pregnant by accident for a third time. Blood test was normal. I was pregnant. Had a US at 5 weeks for dates and the sac was empty, but was told that it was too early anyhow and not to stress. Had another scan at 8 weeks and it was still empty, so i had a D&C.

I wish from my heart that this does not happen to your sister and that the baby flourishes well.

GL. Keep us updated.

My first scan was at about 5 weeks and they could see the sac but not the heart. A week and a half later we could see heartbeating too.

Hope everything works out for your sister.

I cant believe how badly she is being treated. Absolutely disgusting! I agree with making a complaint, about the us tech and the termination booklet!!

With my now 3yr old, I had a scan done at about 4-5weeks and they sent me home saying no sac, not pregnant and my PCOS was to severe to ever fall pg. Imagine my surprise when 5-6weeks later my bub was 10weeks along at a scan at another docs! Lol.

Hope it all works out.
