I had an abdominal ultrasound recently, but I'm still feeling some symptoms that suggest I might be pregnant. Can an abdominal ultrasound sometimes miss an early pregnancy? I'm a bit confused.
It happened to me too, they couldn't find the sac at 5 weeks via abdominal scan. But my doctor did an internal scan and everything was fine. Don't lose hope, your baby is probably just very small right now.
Haan, bilkul miss ho sakti hai agar bahut early pregnancy ho na. Agar 5-6 weeks hi hue hain toh abdominal me kuch nahi dikhta kai baar. Doctors tab TVS scan karte hain sahi se dekhne ke liye.
Yes, an abdominal scan can miss an early pregnancy under 6 weeks because the uterus is still very small. A transvaginal ultrasound (TVS) is much more reliable at this stage. Speak to your gynecologist about scheduling one.
Yes, in the very early weeks, a normal abdominal scan can easily miss it. My doctor advised me to wait and do light walking to stay relaxed. Don't worry, trust whatever scan your doctor suggests next.
My mother-in-law was also worried when the first scan showed nothing. But the doctor explained it was too early for an abdominal ultrasound. We went back after two weeks and saw the heartbeat, so just stay calm!
I am in my second trimester now, but early on, they couldn't see anything on my abdominal scan and I got so scared! Did this happen to anyone else? Later they did a TVS scan and found the baby.
Don't worry at all, this is very common in the initial weeks. The baby is just too tiny to be seen from the outside. If the doctor recommends a transvaginal scan, go for it as it is much more accurate early on.
