Pregnant after IF

5w5d ultrasound

I go in next Monday, 11/8 for a 5w5d ultrasound. I could be less than 5 days considering we can't exactly pinpoint ovulation after trigger! What should I expect to see? I am assuming I shouldn't freak out if no heartbeat is detected yet!

 

TIA

Re: 5w5d ultrasound

  • W/ my pregnancy with my son, I saw a HB at 6w0d, but they thought it had JUST started beating because it was so slow.

    I wouldn't be surprised at ALL if you don't see a HB.  You should see a fetal pole and yolk sac, I think?

  • You will most likely see a G-Sac with a yolk in it. Possibly a  fetal pole? I don't know much about fetal pole but it has something to do with the yolk developing, I think?   It will probably still be too early for a heartbeat!  I had my 5w1d u/s last week and we just saw a sac and yolk. HTH!

  • I remember writing a panicked post at 5w4d because if I remember right there was not much more then a yolk sac. They let me come back a few days later and there was a sac and a heartbeat.

  • Don't freak out if there is no HB!  At 5w6d, we saw two sacs, one had a yolk and a fetal pole, the other one just the yolk.  Neither had HBs...

    Good luck!

  • At 5 wks 5 days, you should see a sac and a fetal pole, but I wouldn't expect to see a hb. If you do see one, it will likely be slow as it probably just started beating. At my 5 wk 6 day u/s we saw a slow hb (100bpm) that they said had probably just started. But even the doctors were surprised to see that. We did IVF so the dates were exact.

    Good luck!!!
