Anyone have an u/s around 6 weeks?

If you did, what were you able to see?  We only saw a sac, with nothing in it, but were told it may still be early or I might not be as far along as I thought.  If you had an u/s around 6 weeks could you see the yolk, fetal pole, or heartbeat?  Or none of these, but still have an OK pregnancy?

    At 6 weeks 2 days we saw a slow-ish heart rate (94 bpm) and went back in for a follow up 11 days later (170 bpm). 

    According to LMP I should have been 7 weeks, so your dating is probably off a bit.  Did you schedule a follow up?

    I went in when I thought it was 6 weeks, and it only measured 4 weeks. Apparently, baby was just a slow grower, because it's almost caught up to the date it should've been at to begin with. At the next appointment, which I think was actually around 6 or 7 weeks, we saw the hb flickering away. That was all I could really make out, because I had never seen an u/s before. GL!

    my first u/s was between 6-7 weeks and we saw the yolk sac.  no heartbeat on my doc's u/s and she didn't want me to worry so i went to the radiology place to have a better u/s.  on that one, i could see the heart.

    i'm scheduled for a u/s at 5 weeks 2 days only because they want to ensure it's not ectopic.  i anticipate only being able to see the sac and that's about it.

    I had one at what was supposed to be 6w6d according to my lmp but she said I only measured 6w exactly.  There was a sac and the start of the fetal pole... but no heartbeat.  I went back after the longest 2 weeks of my life and saw a tiny little jumping bean with a good heartbeat that measured 8w3d.  I know that it's easier said than done... but try not to stress.

    I had an ultrasound around 6 weeks and they were able to see a sac with a heartbeat. In order to see this you have to have a vaginal ultrasound.  When are you getting your next ultrasound?

    This. We saw it with the u/s, and we could hear it with the internal wand. It was slow-ish (105bpm) but the tech said it was normal for that stage. Hope to see/hear a stronger one at our 8wk appt next week.

    This just happened to me as well.  Dr said not to worry that it was just an early pregnancy, and we also saw the sac.  She is bringing me back in 2 weeks, so I am keeping my fingers crossed I can see my DC heartbeat.  I know that I ahve full blown morning sickness so I am hoping this is a good sign.

    We went at 6w1d and saw/heard the heartbeat and baby... But 2 weeks earlier, we just saw the gestational sac and yolk sac...

    At 5w6d we saw a tiny bean with a low heartrate. We had a follow up 9 days later and the heartbeat was a lot stronger and you could see the yolk sac.

    we saw the gestational sac and yolk sac, and a tiny flicker that might have been the heartbeat though they wouldn't say.

    no fetal pole at that point.  it was 6w1d
