I didn't have a blighted ovum...and my us looked exactly like that on my early scan...went back two weeks later and there was a lil blob and a heartbeat flickering away. Sending lots of baby dust your way xxxx

Not to get you discouraged but I had a blight ovum. And I had a sac and the yolk. Looked like that. But you could just have your dates wrong. A lot of women get misdiagnosed. Hoping for the best for you.

I had my dates wrong, I thought I was 6 weeks 1 day but they measured me at 5 weeks 2 days, and I had a gestational sac and a yolk sac. I was really worried but I went to my appt 2 weeks later and they saw a perfectly healthy baby with a strong heartbeat in there measuring right where it should. It's very common for you to mess up your dates cause you don't know the day you conceived EXACTLY.

Yes. Always 31 days. Now at my checkups the baby is measuring 2 days behind. At 13 weeks I measured at 12 weeks 5 days and everything was perfect and normal.

I hope for a good outcome for you. Unfortunately I had a blighted ovum/mmc whatever the docs wanna call it. Had a gestational sac and yolk sac but the baby stopped growing at 5w2d.

Actually my US looked exactly like yours. I thought it was a good sign for the yolk sac,.. Not always the case.

I had a blighted ovum. You have yolk sac, that's a good sign. Mine was just a gestational sac (a completely solid black hole). I am pregnant again. Due to many reasons I have had many ultrasounds but one of the early ones looked like this. I am 10 weeks today. I had an ultrasound this past Wednesday and saw a bouncy baby. I know the wait and uncertainty is agonizing. Hopefully, everything will work out. Sometimes it takes a little longer for baby to show up. Good luck!
