First transvaginal scan of uncertain viability

Is it concerning to see gestational sac with decidual sign but no fetal pole and yolk sac? The size suggests 5 weeks. Doctor suggested possibility of early scan or anembryonic pregnancy given im supposed to be 10 weeks based on LMP. 2 weeks wait for next scan is agonizing. Update: we saw the fetal pole and a flickering heartbeat :) painful 2 weeks but probably more uncertainties to come in this journey.

I’m at a similar situation right now. Supposed to be 7 weeks when i went for scan last week but size measured at 5.7weeks. Fetal pole only appeared at 7 weeks but no heartbeat. Agreed that the wait is agonising, another week for mine.

hope for good news for you :)

Yeah it’s the anxious wait. But this two week gives you to prepare mentally for the worse case too. Hope it’s good news for you in next scan.
