Is Gestational Sac Size Normal For My Dates?

Hello Dr Lundi,
I had ovulation confirmed by daily ultrasounds. My ultrasound at 5 weeks and 2 days showed gestational sac of 6.4 x 6.7 x 6.6 mm with a yolk sac. Is this a normal size for my dates? It seems a bit small. This is my 7th pregnancy and I have only carried one pregnancy to term. Thank you for your time.

Hi dear and thanks for your query.

Dont worry because size of gestational sac is normal ,but presence of yolk sac at 5 weeks is a good sign .
Wait until one week to confirm heart beating of baby and than pregnancy will be more safe to continue.
Be calm and take folic acid 5 mg per day .

All the best
