I went in to my OBGYN appointment thinking I was almost 7 weeks. Turns out I am only about 5 weeks and 5 days. It was hard for her to hear a heart beat. Has anyone else had this experience with an early ultra sound?

Question

Answer

Praying everything goes well for you. I had the same thing happen. Except I was supposed to be 9 weeks 3 days and I was only measuring 5 weeks 5 days. They couldn’t hear the heart beat and only seen a faint flicker. I ended up having a miscarriage a few days later and needed a D&C. Whenever I see anyone post like this it’s heart breaking because sometimes I went through the shock of loss. 😭 praying the baby catches up and is good! On a good note I waited to try again until 4 months and conceived right away she’s not almost 11 months and I’m pregnant again with baby number 3! 7 weeks tomorrow! Positive thoughts toooooo youuuuu!

Answer

Yep thats normal.

Answer

At 5w6d I had an empty sac at 8w4d I could see baby and hear heart.

Answer

Same exact thing happened to me actually. Went in for a Scan at what was supposed to be 7w2d and ended sup being 5w5d and they didn’t even see a fetal pole yet. The date was off because I ovulated later than I thought. But Baby is fine and healthy so far and just made it to our second trimester. Im sure everything is fine love. Keep your head and up stay positive! And congratulations!

Answer

You might have ovulated or implanted later therefore it can be totally normal that your dates are off. Dating is more accurate with a scan, hopefully you will hear the heartbeat at your next appointment. Good luck x

Answer

I went in last week thinking I was 6w6d. She measured me at 6w2d so I was relieved that we were in the same ballpark. But, she wasn’t able to hear the heartbeat either, we could only see the flicker as well, not uncommon at all this early in.

Answer

With my first pregnancy I didn’t have my ultrasound until 20 weeks. Turns out I was only 17 weeks.  Huge change, and was super disappointing (I think I would’ve been more scared had I gone earlier in my pregnancy with thay kindve change). But she’s now a healthy 6 year old. ❤️

Answer

Yep! When I went in for my dating ultrasound, I was supposed to be nearly 7 weeks and baby measured just over 6 weeks. Super normal.
