5-6 weeks pregnant. How was your first gynae check up?

I just went for my first gynae check up. They did a scan and all they said was “ I can’t see baby yet. I can only see yolk sac”. The expression somehow left me thinking whether am I really pregnant? Coz they also kept saying “don’t know if the pregnancy will progress”. Gosh. Edit: it was the sonographer at KKH who said all these. Not the gynae. UPDATE 8/12: I just went for my scan yesterday and they saw the heartbeat and babies head. I’m at 8 weeks now. THANK GOD. phew.

Professional gynae would use an ultrasound probe through the vagina during early pregnancy. Tummy cannot see anything. I could see my water bag and yolk at Week 6

Yep I had a transvaginal scan to see the yolk sac. They could see the waterbag too. But that’s all they could see. They said no baby yet. 😑
