  • When Can We See the Fetus?

    QUESTION

    Dear Ms Ultrasound,

  • Do Three Sacs Mean I'll Have Triplets?

    QUESTION

    I am almost 32 years old. My first pregnancy ended with a D&C on due to a blighted ovum.

    I conceived approximately 2-3 weeks later. My first set of levels revealed high progesterone and an HcG of 46. I had the HCG re-taken five days later and it rose to 851.

    Since I'd had a previous miscarriage and was not having a regular menstrual period prior to conceiving, my OB/GYN brought me in for an early sonogram. It which showed 3 gestational sacs measuring 5 weeks.

  • No Gestational Sac at 6.5 Weeks

    QUESTION

    Dear Ms. Ultrasound,
    My wife is now just at 7.5 weeks pregnant. She had a trans vaginal ultrasound last Friday which would have been right at 6.5 weeks. We are absolutely sure that she got pregnant on Feb. 24 or 25th as I traveled a lot and we didn't see each other much other than then. I'm worried because when we went for her scan they didn't see anything at all.
