Positive test but no sac?

Hi Mummies! I’m a first time mom and I’m super anxious! I missed my period and took a home kit test which was positive and I calculated we are 5 weeks pregnant! We went for an ultrasound today but no sac was detected. Doctor mentioned that it could be that it’s too early or it could be an ectopic pregnancy! This has made me scared! Has anyone had similar experiences? When did your sac appear? #firsttimemom #advicepls #firstbaby

hello! congrats on your pregnancy! I did my scan at week 6 and the sac and fetal pole was there. But because mine was ivf pregnancy so we could calculate the pregnancy quite accurately. But if you calculate based on LMP, there can be 1-2 weeks variation if there is late implantation or if you have irregular menses. So I would suggest waiting another 1-2 weeks for another scan. Stay positive because I've heard of how some fetal pole or sac taking longer then usual to show up on the ultrasound.
