6w2d baby measuring fine but no HB any hope?

Post by Reem »

Hello,
im 6w2d pregnant went for an u/s (trans-vaginal) saw a yolk sac with a baby inside measuring right where it should be at this stage, but no heartbeat yet. my RE said the everything looks great :shock: but im very anxious, don't u think that we should be able to see a HB by 6 weeks????
anyone has such an experience ???
thank you.

Hi! Just wanted to share that there is still hope. At my 6w visit we saw a gestational sac & yolk sac. When we went back at 6w6d we could see & hear the h/b on the ultrasound so it started beating somewhere between 6-7 weeks which is perfectly normal. Good luck!!

There's definitely hope! I'd even say great hope since the sac/baby was measuring right on. I bet if you went back in a few days you'd see that heartbeat. Good luck!

Reem,

I had an US at six weeks and saw no HB in one of my little ones. One week later they were both beating great! Good luck.

Reem,
I had a d&c after a m/c at 12 wks. I got my period about 6 weeks after the procedure and started my next ivf cycle with the period following that which came on time. So my d&c was in May and my next fresh transfer was in early August. My RE always thinks it's best to wait one cycle inbetween. You will get your bfp, this proves you can get pregnant. In my case there was a chromosome abnormality. A year later, here I am holding my beautiful daughter. You'll get there!

Leora, you will get there too. I think you will do very well carrying one baby at a time. You remain in my prayers.
