No sac at week 5

babe thought I'd share my experience.. for me, I had some cramps on my left side shortly after I tested positive on a home pregnancy test. I was also worried that it could be an ectopic pregnancy since the cramps seem to be more focused on the left.. I made an appointment to go in early at what I calculated was around week5 based on my last menses date. When I went in, the doctor couldn't find any sac either via a transV scan, except a very small dot which cannot be confirmed whether it is the gestational sac or not. My doctor did a blood test for me that day and another blood test 48 hours later. The first test came back at hcg 650 and the one 48 hours was at 1500. I was told that HCG usually doubles within 48 hours for a viable pregnancy in early stages. I went back for a rescan 2 weeks later as instructed by doctor and by then I could see the sac, yolk and fetal heartbeat! the scan dated me 6weeks 2days which was abit off from what I calculated myself. hence, it could be too early, don't worry and hope everything goes well for you in the next scan. ❤️

if you already tested positive, it might be too early to see much at week 5. what did the gynae say? i have not experience it but i'm sure your gynae adviced you on the next step .. like do another check at week 8 or 9 ?

I had transV scan at week5 and there’s already heartbeat. I think you might be too early. Probably calculated wrongly or you ovulated later than you thought. Wait for 2 more weeks and go in for another scan and see how.

maybe it's too early to spot the sac, usually 2 weeks will be more visible.. meanwhile continue to take your folic acid daily and rest as much as possible since 1st trimester usually more unstable..
