Thanks Jazzers. Although they were only going by sac size with me not mearing the embryo because that was not seen?

But I think they were talking about gestational age not fetal age. So they were saying gestational age was 4w1d. Is that right 5?

That is all they should see at 5 weeks. Your little bean has stuck, that is the main thing, and there is only 1 right? And it is in your uterus, so you should be very happy. Have you got another scan booked in? You should see more at about the 7 week mark, but you know that, you have done this all before, you will be fine, your numbers look great too.

That's where they started with me too! I wouldn't get too panicked or give up hope just yet :) Maybe they are off, or maybe the little bean is just about to go through a "growth spurt" and they caught him just right before that happened!

She didnt actually say? Am guessing gestational age as there was no baby to be seen?

The sonographer said 2-3 weeks although the dr may do another sooner not sure. Waiting for his call right now!!

Ok dr rang and he said the scan report showed there was actually a yolk sac in the gest. sac and measures 4w4d (so only behind 5 days from LMP) I will go for another dating scan in 2-3 weeks time. Bloods not back yet though but he said they would have risen now. So I guess it is safe to say all is looking normal now?

My bloods just came in too!! hcg is now 845 Woo Hooo!!! He said things look on par :)

That's fantastic! All that worrying for nothing!

Yay!!

5, That's wonderful, Don't worry now ..Relax.

If I go by my LMP my baby would measure WEEKS behind ..My cycle is LONG!!! I go by my O day it's more accurate.
