6 week scan too early?

Question

Me and my husband have booked a private scan for 2 weeks time (be 6weeks pregnant) for a reassurance scan as this is my first pregnancy. Do you think it’s too early to have one as my midwife appointment wouldn’t be till 2 weeks after then? I don’t know if I can wait till my 12 weeks scan as that’s another 8 weeks! 😂

Answer

6 weeks tends to be early as there isn’t actually much to see until 7/8 weeks I had a scan at 5 weeks and 4 days (due to bleeding etc) and ended up having to come back 2 weeks later as there was only a lil yolk sack but when I went back 2 weeks later there was a little bean with a heart beat xx

Answer

I had a scan at 5w6d and could see yolk sac, tiny baby and flicker of heartbeat xx

Answer

Thanks everyone! After discussion with the husband we have decided to change it to two weeks later! So il be 8 weeks then Xx

Answer

I had early scans due to bleeding and was lucky to see baby and heartbeat at 6 weeks. U may see it. However don’t panic if u don’t see a heartbeat. Baby’s heart only starts beating at around 6 weeks so u may be slightly too early still.

Answer

I would say yes. Bc it’s common to be 2 weeks off on how far along you are so you might be adding a little extra stress. But that’s totally up to you. Good luck !

Answer

With my first, I had a TVS at cycle day 30 to be exact to confirm pregnancy. So I would say about a little over 4 weeks? and we saw a little yolk sac.
based on the due date they gave me at the 8week scan I would say maybe I was 5 weeks at that 1st TVS.
So I think 6 week is alright to see everything is alright and growing 💗
I personally plan on get a private scan at 6 week with my next pregnancy 😬

Answer

It might be, it might not
At my 5+6 scan you could see a tiny heartbeat and a 2.7mm baby, but that’s pretty early to be seeing anything
