Only yolk sac visible in week 7 (according to lmp)

Hi all, I have just had my first dr appointment today. Only the yolk sac is visible based on the ultrasound with no sign of the fetus or fetus heartbeat detected. The dr said it might still be early weeks in the pregnancy and to come back two weeks later. Has anyone had similar experiences and is it a red flag for possible miscarriage :(

I had the same experience, they can see the yolk but not the pole; hence they confirmed I’m pregnant but I need to return a few later to scan again to confirm if baby is still there. Mine turn out ok. So be positive. It might be too early to detect the pole or the heart beat. Pray that both you and baby are well.
