Hi all, I just wanted to ask if anyone had had a pelvic scan at about 7 weeks and not seen a baby/had a heartbeat? I had a scan yesterday and a gestational sac and yolk sac were observed but not the baby itself. I’ve been told to come back in 10-ish days to see if there’s been any progress/change. I was a bit of a coward and didn’t have the internal scan which I probably should have done just to put my mind at ease! Wanted to find out others’ experiences :) I realise it’s hard to be completely sure of dates, but I know when I ovulated (quite late in my cycle) and off that I believe I am approximately 7 weeks (although off LMP I would be 8 weeks).
Thanks so much all - congratulations to everyone on your pregnancies :)

I had one at 6w4d and saw everything including a heartbeat, the internal scans really arent as bad as you think! X

My friend had exactly this when she thought she was 7 weeks. She went back nearly 2 weeks later and everything was all okay, baby seen with a heartbeat =)

I had a scan at 10 weeks with my first, and they couldn't really see much abdominally. They switched to vaginal and he was there.
So abdominal scans can be more impacted by how full your bladder is, position of the baby etc.
