Don't stress out! With my 2nd baby I had the same thing. I was convinced that I was going to miscarry. I had another ultrasound at 6 weeks and at that time all they saw was the sac, then finnaly at 8 weeks we got to see that little peanut.
The earliest you can see a sac is 5 weeks 3 days, a heartbeat is not detectable on US until 6 weeks - so no worries yet.
Not possible, ur not pregnant or u have a missed abortion meaning it died in utaro but hasn't ex spelled yet
Yes, it is possible for gestational diabetes to not appear on an ultrasound during pregnancy. Gestational diabetes is typically diagnosed through blood tests that measure blood glucose levels. Ultrasound is primarily used during pregnancy to monitor the growth and development of the baby.
I found out i was pregnant with my twins at 3 weeks. I got a positive pregnancy test at 2 weeks due to higher levels of HCG in my urine and then began bleeding so went to the ER and they done an ultrasound. You could see the gestational sacs, but not the fetal poles yet.
Yes, hcg levels higher than typical pregnancies at the same gestational age is the first indicator of a multiple pregnancy this can be confirmed with an ultrasound.
It is called a transvaginal ultrasound. A new pregnancy typically cannot be visualized until the HCG levels reach between 4,000-5,000. This is when the gestational sac, fetal pole and yolk sac can be visualized. Cardiac activity is typically not seen on an ultrasound until 6 to 7 weeks gestation.
yes i am 5 weeks and had ultrasound yestreday seen the sac but not the baby yet had cramping pain but i think it will be ok i have had 3 misscarges befor and the pain was diffrent iand i would of started bleeding allready if it was again a misscarge
high blood sugar levels
Hormons in pregnancy interfere with the effectiveness of insulin, which regulates sugar levels in the body. A pregnant woman's body can become "insulin resistant" or diabetic, also known as gestational diabetes. Some women have mild cases that can be treated with diet and exercies, others may have to take synthetic insulin to control their glucose levels during pregnancy.
No; by the time the sac is visible on ultrasound, there would be detectable levels of Hcg in the blood and urine.
Blood work cannot tell you how far along you are as the levels vary so much from pregnancy to pregnancy, go with the ultrasound.
This is not going to be much comfort- I experienced a simiar episode and am now at 5.5 weeks with a repeat episode. My last pregnancy my levels were 3400 ish and only increased to 4700 ish someweeks later. I was told that levels that do not double at least every 72 hours are not promising. ometimes At 5 weeks and almost always by 6 weeks you should see a gestational sac, yolk sac and fetal pole with electrical activity about 80 to 125 beats. That's what I remember from my Drs apt. There are others with positive outcomes. at 6 weeks the levels can range from 200 to 150000. Good luck I m hoping it works out for you. The waiting is hard I know. God bless.
If it's a single pregnancy then it's not pregnant & i would ask your doctor to do an ultrasound asap. please read about molar pregnancies just so u understand all the possibilites.
I'm not sure, but I am meant to be 9 weeks pregnant and went for scan and they could only find gestational sack at 6 week size, no fetal heartbeat. Prepared me for miscarriage. Then had bloods done and HCG levels were 18000, then 18900. My thoughts were that my body still thinks I'm pregnant, and hence still producing HCG...but doc wants to wait and see as he said if you had a twin and it perished, this could explain why the gestational sack is still small - so it could be a viable pregnancy.... I wish he didn't give me false hope!
