hi,in most of the cases by 5.3 weeks fetal pole is seen but in many cases it comes late.so its nothing to worry.doctor has prescibed you hucog which is hcg injections which will provide additional hormonal support to the pregnancy.in all likelihood all should be normal.at 7 weeks you should be able to see fetal pole,if not present then it will raise the suspicion of blighted ovum and may require termination.but at the moment all sounds good.all the best take care.
