Ultrasound today showed a gestational sack(with yolk), nicely placed in the uterus. No fetal pole and no heartbeat, but I expected as much at 5 weeks. The sack measured 5 weeks so a little behind but as my doctor said "we are measuring something that is 1 centimeter, the placement of the ultrasound markers at this point can make the difference of a couple days"
I looked up the post of my first ultrasound with Boo. It was the same thing. No fetal pole, no heartbeat at 5 weeks, 1 day.
I go back in 2 weeks to check for heartbeat.

How exciting! And yes, after 6(!) pregnancies I know you never see more than a sac that early.
I am so happy for you!
Krista - Late on this, but....
CONGRATULATIONS!!
So far so good! And that early on really does make a big difference when it comes to measurements. Daniel was 4 days behind at my first measurable u/s at 7 weeks. Then at my 10 week he was 2 days ahead with a different machine and tech.
Yeah, a day or two can mean a lot at this point. Plus the machine quality and whether or not you do transvaginal or abdominal US.
Still too early to see the heartbeat but there is a sac so crossing my bits for you anyhow :)
WOW! Congratulations! I'm very happy for you and your family!
OMG! Congrats!! Sorry, I just noticed the exciting news! Seems like its going around lately :)
Wishing you good luck and hoping the next u/s provides more comfort
I'm late too but I wanted to say that everything looks great! I'm so glad for you.
sounds like things are bang on track, congratulations!
Glad to hear everything is progressing!
