∙ 12y agoGenerally, pregnancy is measured from the date of your last period. At two weeks, you're just at the point of fertilization and implantation, and there's nothing for an ultrasound to see yet. Even at four weeks - two weeks from the date of implantation - it's unlikely for an ultrasound to give you an accurate result. They may be able to detect some changes indicative of pregnancy early on, but to get a more accurate reading it's advisable to wait a bit.

I've had 2 positive blood tests but ultrasound tec could see no sac whats going on?
It depends on how far along you are. Ultrasound normally can detect a yolk sac between 5- 7 weeks. Kristin, RDMS
Can you see the fetus at an ultrasound during 5 weeks pregnancy?
my step sister had a baby and she had her first ultra sound at 2 months so yes i believe it's still early. Actually I had an Ultrasound done at 5 weeks and 5 days. They were able to see the sac, baby and pick up the heart beat at 122 bpm. So no, it it not too early to get an ultrasound.
Can implantation be seen with a ultrasound?
It is not likely. The earliest an ultrasound can usually detect pregnancy is about 5 1/2 weeks. Although you may be able to see a little sac (with essentially nothing in it) a heart beat may not be able to be detected. This is nothing to worry about though. Implantation occurs at Week 2 of pregnancy so it is not likely that implantation would be able to be seen with an ultrasound.
Think Im 6 weeks pregnant but ultrasound says 4 weeks Can this be?
I was told the same thing. Based on my lmp I am 6 weeks but I had an ultrasound done 2 days ago that said I was 4 weeks. I wonder if I am 4 weeks along because that is the time of conception since you dont get pregnant the day of your period. It is usually two weeks later when you ovulate. Let me know if you have heard anything
If an ultrasound says you are 17 weeks and 3 days pregnant is that the day you conceived or would it be that date plus an extra 2 weeks?
That means it is the date conceived (or within 48 hours of). It is never right on, but within a week of. Go by what the ultrasound says. No, if your ultrasound says 17 weeks and 2 days that would be that date plus 2 extra weeks, that is around the time of your last period, unless you have irregular periods or conceived straight after a miscarriage or something. The length of pregnancy is always measured from your last period even by ultrasound.
Why fetal pole is not present in 6 weeks?
i had an ultrasound when i was 6 weeks pregnant, but by ultrasound, the pregnancy measured to be 5 weeks, so no fetal pole was seen yet. i think the earliest fetal poles can be seen is about 6 1/2 - 7 weeks. hope this helps :)
Had an ultrasound yesterday. LMP was Nov 2 so you should be 7 weeks The ultrasound only showed you being 5 weeks pregnant you are going back next week for another ultrasound Should you be worried?
You have two due dates...one accourding to your last period and one accourding to the size of the child on the ultrasound...i think the ultrasound one is more accurate
When did you conceive if your ultrasound said you were 17 weeks 2 days pregnant on September 20?
May
Vaginal ultrasound at 7 weeks no baby I am measuring 5 weeks but could it be a miscarriage and they aren't telling me i go back in 2 weeks for another ultrasound?
I understand what you are saying when you say messuring, they messure the sac and it calculates what the size is to get the age of the sac/fetus.
When did you conceive if your ultrasound said you were 6 weeks and 2 days on April 30th?
31st March or thereabouts
Why are 2 weeks taken off your ultrasound scan age?
Because it's about 12 days of conception
When did you conceive if the ultrasound said iwas 10 weeks and 2 days on August 25th?
99% probability it was between 10 weeks & 10 weeks and 4 days ago.
