In March I was 10 weeks pregnant and was spotting very lightly. I went to the hospital and they did an ultrasound. They told me that at 10 weeks they should be able to at least see the heart beating even though it might be too soon to see the baby. When they did the ultrasound all they saw was the sac. There was no heartbeat. I had a full miscarriage a few days later. It was determined by blood tests that I had miscarried about five weeks prior and was just now discharging the fetus. I pray that this is not the situation for you, and you have a healthy baby!

When is yolk sac formed?
Most typically, the yolk sac develops around week 5 or 6 and can sometimes be seen on ultrasound this early.
I have an ultrasound scheduled on the 30th of this month if I am pregnant would they be able to see anything on the ultrasound even though it is only two weeks after ovulation?
If you were pregnant the developing embryo would be about the size of the head of a pin. The embryo is not the first sign of pregnancy found on ultrasound; the yolk sac shows up long before the embryo is visible. The yolk sac can't be seen uon ultrasound until at least four weeks after the last period.
How do you know if you had a chemical pregnancy?
Only a doctor can diagnose this with an ultrasound. The body will think you are pregnant but the ultrasound will show up an empty sac or nothing.
Is your first ultrasound after in vitro fertilization vaginal?
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.
When can you visualize yolk sac on ultrasound?
You should be able to see the yolk sac at 5 weeks.
What does the term no cul-de-sac fluid is seen in regards to an ultrasound of an ovarian cyst?
It's a normal finding, and means it doesn't appear that the cyst has ruptured.
What does fetal pole not well visualized mean?
It was difficult to see the line that represents the very beginning of the embryo. Most likely, the gestational sac was seen on the ultrasound.
What is clinical pregnancy?
A clinical pregnancy is a pregnancy characterized by a situation when the fetal sac is seen in the uterus with an ultrasound examination four weeks after the IVF procedure has taken placed.
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.
3 weeks after embryo transfer with a positive pregnancy test but no sac on ultrasound.Is this possible or is it too early to do an ultrasound?
You wouldn't normally see a sac on ultrasound until about 5 weeks. Sounds normal.
What is meant by a single intrauterine gestational sac note means?
I believe it means that they have only seen one sac--as in one embryo...not twins.
If an ultrasound reveals something that looks like the forming of a sac but the blood test came back negative could you still be pregnant?
No; by the time the sac is visible on ultrasound, there would be detectable levels of Hcg in the blood and urine.
