Hi Rachel, I have gone through your question and understand your concerns. Gestational sac is usually round in shape in early pregnancy. Elongated gestational sac can be an indication of impending abortion or a non viable pregnancy, especially when the fetal node is not visible in a transvaginal ultrasound by 5-6 weeks of pregnancy.
Your OBGYN specialist is right in suggesting you to get a repeat ultrasound after few days( preferably 2 weeks) to see the further development of the gestational sac and the fetus, and further management should be done accordingly.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
