My test was positive but at the scan they said its too early to see anything clearly and called me back after 2 weeks. Im so anxious now. Has this happened to anyone, can the ultrasound really miss it sometimes?
It can, sometimes its just early, but sometimes the doctor checks for other things if the test is positive and scan is blank. Please stay in touch with your gynac and do the follow up they suggest.
Early days the little one is too tiny to show on screen, beta. Let the doctor guide the timing of the next scan. Try not to read too much into one early scan.
Yes if its too early the ultrasound may not show the sac yet. My doctor explained that very early on, only the blood hCG test confirms it, the scan catches up after a few weeks. They asked me to come back later for the scan.
Happens often when you scan too soon. The gestational sac usually shows around 5-6 weeks. If your test was positive but scan was empty, dont panic, they just repeat it after a week or so.
I went through this wait and it was so nerve wracking. Early scans can show nothing yet and it doesnt automatically mean bad news. Trust your doctor, follow up with the repeat scan and the hCG levels.
