6 week scan no heartbeat detected

Doctors having me come back in 3 weeks. Is that common? 6 weeks is pretty early to detect heartbeat, no? I definitely still feel pregnant…

I’m sorry. I’m hopeful you’ll get answers at your 9 week. To be honest, I do not know. I haven’t had a scan yet (currently 7 weeks) but I do know six weeks is super super early. I’m thinking of you. Stay strong love ❤️

People have so many different experiences! Don’t freak out - it’s still really early! Although I got my heartbeat at 6 weeks, I hear a ton who don’t and do in the later ones & the baby is perfectly fine. Of course that doesn’t make it any less stressful. But be positive!! Praying for you! 💕

I miscarried my first pregnancy, had a successful second, so I am hoping the odds have dropped a bit

It’s still early at 6 weeks and you might not be as far along as you thought. It’s pretty common that 6 weeks is too early. The fact that they want you back in a few weeks means they don’t think all hope is lost either.

Oh no, I’m so so so sorry. It’s not common but have the doctor confirmed you’re at 6 wks based on measurements? Hopefully is just a miscalculation on actual time

I think it’s too early to hear it but can be seen
Like the person above said, you might not be as far along
My last baby we didn’t see much till 8 weeks

It's so hard to figure out when the egg actually implanted. I'm in the same boat as you. The sack is present, but no fetal pole yet. I've been a little anxious myself, but it's really why it's best to wait before you get an ultrasound. Keep us all updated. My next ultrasound is on the 7th.🤞🏼

Doctor had said I looked more like 5 weeks/it was too early 🤞

I think it’s too early. And if you’re still feeling pregnant I wouldn’t worry about it 💕

At what I thought was 6 weeks, they couldn't see anything. I hard horrible cramping, so they did an ultrasound. The cramping turned out to be a cyst on my ovary that I ovulated with. They said I looked more around 5 weeks. Went back a week later and heard his heartbeat. Around 12 weeks, he started measuring 3 weeks ahead. His a healthy 6 month old. Try not to stress.
