Question:
Please help I am really confused. My last period was the 28th January 2017. I have a positive pregnancy test. I booked in for an early private scan where I thought I would be 8 weeks. They said I was 5 to 6 weeks and could only see gestational sac and yolk but no fetal pole. How can I only be 5 to 6 weeks pregnant if I not had a period for 8 weeks? I have no bleeding no pain or anything. Can I still have a healthy baby or has it died? Please help asap I am.worried sick its my first baby taken 5 years to conceive. My periods are between 24 days and 34 days so makes ovulation different each month. The sonographer didnt sound hopeful at all.

So when I have my scan on Tuesday all should be good xx

Just got beta HCG result for 6 weeks and says 22378 is that a good sign of a viable pregnancy

I have been for repeat scan it shows I am 5.5 to 6 weeks still but there is slight improvement as there is a small embryo. The sonographer said I am not progressing as quickly as they hoped for but in my eyes its a big step to last week with an embyro being seen even if.its very tiny. I have no report to upload. I am worried this is bad news as I havent had a period for 9 weeks. I am optimistic on the other hand cos there is a slight progression. What are your thoughts please?

Since I have just rang midwife she says this is very common in very early pregnancy she says this is why NHS dont scan until 12 weeks incase you are out with your dates. It can happen that there is a difference with period and scan measurements because scan today isnt a measuring scan its just general ultrasound. She said take no notice and be positive. As long as I have no pain or no bleeding she isnt worried at all xx some pregnancies do progress slow but catch up a few weeks later xx
