fetal-development
20 mm Fetal heart rate: 164 bpm, the other one is 33,7 X 18,4 Fetal length: 16,7 mm
Yolk Sac: 5,9 mm Fetal heart rate: 166 bpm
Also embryon1 age is 10w3d but embryon 2 is 9w2d. I'm very concerned. Are those differences ok?
The next ultrasound is in 10 days and the wait is killing me.
Usually the 5th week you will see the gestational sac but maybe no fetal pole. By week 6-7 you should see the fetal pole and if you're lucky a heartbeat. By week 8 you should get a heartbeat. So if you are only 5 weeks it sounds like your development is very good seeing both a fetal pole and hb. Did he mention what the heartrate was?? I am not sure what the "likely" fetal pole means because if there is a heartbeat then there is definitely a fetal pole there!!
The baby only measured 1cm which from my research isnt as big as most are this far long however Im not panicking about that as Ive been told all fetal development is different. Ive also taken some comfort in how nauseated ive been which to me is a good sign, but not so fun! So as of now I am relaxed and excited!!
I can tell you, From experience that a baby's heart is fully developed by week 18, which is why doctors do fetal echos between 18-24 weeks, it's the soonest they can visualize the heart without the bones getting in the way or "shadowing" it, and also the latest for them to detect holes and other issues.
There are many cases when a baby has a hole or two early on and as the baby grows and the heart continues to grow the holes close or get smaller on their own.
I'm expecting twins too! Congrats. My doctor is going to induce me at 38 weeks as well if they don't come before. From all the research I've done it's totally routine to make sure twins are born by 38 weeks before they run into any type of distress or iugr.
I heard as early as 14 wks but the probability goes up if you wait longer. Do you not have a fetal photo or sneak peak ultrasound around you? They'll tell you.
According to my doctor, I am 7 weeks pregnant. According to my 6 week u/s, there are 2 sacs, but only 1 has developed. According to my 7 week u/s, there is no change... no fetal pole or visible heartbeat. I've had some mild cramping, but no spotting or bleeding. I'm being forced to wait through the holiday weekend (pure torture) for my doctor to correlate my blood work with my ultrasound to see if my numbers are going up. My outlook is not very positive.
5 weeks 4 days with two gestational sac and double yolk but no fetal pole hcg levels in the 10,000's is this normal or am i losing? Wasn't impressed with new doctor.
From wikipedia-
During embryological development, some fetuses may form choroid plexus cysts. These fluid-filled cysts can be detected by a level II ultrasound (18–20 weeks gestation). The finding is relatively common, with a prevalence of ~1%. Choroid plexus cysts (CPC) can be an isolated finding, which confers a 1% (variable based on population studied) risk of fetal aneuploidy. The risk of aneuploidy increases to 10.5-12% if other risk factors or ultrasound findings are noted.
I also had an u/s at 6 weeks where all they saw was a gestational sac (no yolk sac or fetal pole) by around 7 weeks there was a yolk sac, fetal pole and heart beat!! I think there are even women on here that have had to wait till closer to 8 weeks to see anything. My Dr. was also on the negative side, I think they feel the need to prepare you for the worst. (((HUGS))) The fact that your levels almost tripled is great! Let us know how your next appt goes!
If you break embryonic and fetal development into thirds then when you are in your 28th week the baby begins its final third of development. (Gestation is 266 days or 38 weeks of development). So either way you look at it you are in your 3rd trimester!
Hello mommas I'm supper excited cause we found out yesterday that we are expecting twins... we are so happy nd nervous hopefully everything is well threw my pregnancy...

going for my 7 week ultrasound tomorrow - last time saw gestational sac and something that they thought was start of fetal pole. should i see heartbeat tomorrow?
Hi there
Just went for another internal ultrasound today (friday) and they found a gestasional sac and yolk sac same as on Monday but still no fetal pole. They measured me at 6 weeks 1 day today.. They said the gest sac and yolk sac had grown accordingly since Monday so that was reassuring but told me to come back in a week to see if they can find fetal pole and hbeat. I've heard all sorts of variations on when they can find hbeat anything from 6 up to 8 weeks. What do you think?
If ur dr wasnt worried u really shouldnt. I FULLY understand why you are I'm soo sorry uve gone thru so mch... prayers and fingers crossed ypur baby keeps growing and youll have a happy healthy pregnancy and baby.. keep us posted.
