test came positive but my gynac asked for an ultrasound to confirm. im only like 5 weeks so wondering will it even show anything this early? anyone had a scan done this soon?
Yes absolutely! I felt so many emotions when my doctor did an early transvaginal scan at 6 weeks and we saw a tiny flickering dot which was the heartbeat. It's the most beautiful and reassuring feeling in the world.
Confirming via pelvic or transvaginal ultrasound is the most reliable way to confirm pregnancy. Usually, doctors schedule it around 6 to 8 weeks to check the gestational sac and heartbeat. It's a quick 10-minute scan, so you can easily plan it around your work schedule.
I am planning to conceive soon and was reading about this. They say a blood test can confirm it very early, but an ultrasound is what finally shows if the baby is in the right place. Can we do a normal scan or is a special one needed?
Ultrasound is definitely the best way to confirm it. While I usually prefer home remedies for small issues like morning sickness, for confirming pregnancy and checking the baby's health, you must go to a doctor for a proper scan.
