Q: Lmp I should be 7wks, is it possible to be only 5wks?

So on Mon(14th) I had my 1st Dr appt. (New doc) According to lmp(feb28) I should of been around 6 wks and a couple days. (App says I'm 7wks 2 days today) they did an ultrasound and just the gestational sac was seen. He doomed the pregnancy and gave me "options" Went to a different Dr on Wed(16th) did u/s the sac was bigger than on Monday I noticed. But still empty. He said I may not be as far along as I thought and ordered betas. Levels from 430p that day were 6044. Went back Friday morning at 8am and they were 7200. Nurse said that was good that they were rising but still not enough info. I go back for another u/s on Wed.
I'm so nervous and scared. I have 3 healthy kids and have never gone through this. I also didn't go to the Dr as early. If I count back to the only time we bd I'd only be around 5wks ish. (It was March 13)
Just curious if any of you other ladies have experienced this good or bad?

Thanks for your input and I'm sorry for your loss. I haven't had any spotting our cramping. But I've also heard you don't always have that. I went to the Dr today and we did another u/s the sac has grown to 1.02cm he thinks I am only 5ish wks. We are doing more beta draws. I'll go back in 2 wks. The sac last Monday was only half a cm. I know the odds aren't great but I'm trying to stay hopeful. I also have a tilted uterus.

Not trying to scare you .. but just wanted to give my experience that didn't end so well.

This is a breakdown of what happened:
Started spotting at 5wk2d (from LMP) - HCG 848, nothing seen on transvaginal u/s
Went to ER at 5w5d for increased spotting/light bleeding - HCG 1647 2 gestational sacs seen on tv u/s
Follow up appt - 6w5d - HCG 5119 still two sacs on us, both empty
Follow up appt - 7wk5d - HCG 8997 both sacs still empty, sent for better u/s to check for ectopic since my HCG levels had still gone up - diagnosed with blighted ovum
Follow up 8wk1d - had lost one g/s other still empty showed no signs of growth, HCG 9176
At this appt I was given misoprostol to induce miscarriage of the second g/s.


I really hope things go well for you on Wed. I hope you dont have the same outcome as me, but just wanted to mention it as a possibility. Please keep us posted and feel free to PM me if you want to.

Sticky vibes !!!

At 7 weeks, you would be able to see a fetus via u/s, so you probably are around 5 weeks. I ovulated 2 weeks late the month I conceived my son, so I bet that's what happened to u. I'm sure u will see baby at your next u/s

Your dates are correct, because at the time of conception/when you had sex, you are 2 weeks pregnant already according to how doctor's calculate your due date. So you would be 7+ weeks pregnant... I am hoping for the best for you <3

Yes it is possible especially if you ovulated later than exactly halfway through your cycle. Good luck xx
