Pregnant after IF

Gestational sac measurements

Did any of you ladies have a u/s at 5w2d or around that? If so, do you remember what your gestational sac measured?

 They saw a gestational and yolk sac for me, which is great. My gest. sac measured 6.5mm which doc said is terrific, but of course Dr.Google says its a little low. Ugh

 

TIA!

Re: Gestational sac measurements

  • I don't know what the measurements were, but at 5w3d, I had only the sac, no yolk. Back away from Dr. Google! Dr. Google is eeeeevil. :)

  • Mine was at 5w3d, but they didn't tell me the measurement. 

    Don't forget that implantation ususally happens anywhere from 6-10dpo (sometimes later), so if you happened to implant on the later end of that, it makes total sense that you would measure slightly less than "average". 

    Based on the research I did early on (because I'm obsessive like that!) I'm pretty sure the "averages" are all based on implanting at about 8dpo.  Based on my charting, I know that my LO implanted early at 6dpo, which makes sense why I was always measuring 2-3 days ahead at my early ultrasounds. 

    I don't think you have anything to worry about -- seeing the yolk sac is definitely a good sign!  When is your next one?

  • At 5 wks 6 days, I had two tiny sacs with no yolk sacs.  10 days later we had 2 heartbeats and they measured right in time.  There's lots of variability in early u/s.  I wouldn't worry :)

  • Back away from Dr. Google. It does no good! You will end up thinking horrible things. Go with the real doctor.

  • I just logged on to my patient portal through my clinic and at 4w6d GS=5.08mm and at 5w2d GS=8.40mm so I have been consistently measuring 1-2 days behind and everything is fine so far. They say the GS should grow approx. (keyword) 1mm a day. You also have to remember that measurements are not an exact science and that if the cursor is off by one mega-pixel (or what ever its called) that measurements can be different. As long as you GS is growing I wouldn't worry.  
  • I don't remember my exact measurements, but at 5 weeks I only had a sac, no yolk.
