Hello
In early pregnancy, it is usual for the baby to occupy a part of the gestational sac.
Moreover, it does take a flexed up shape , and might appear like a bean or banana.
Also a full bladder compresses the sac further
You should have a transvaginal ultrasound without a full bladder to appreciate pregnancy details more clearly in the first trimester.
However, if the report given to you was normal, and you were not told about any abnormal finding, please do not worry further
Take care
