Question

Yolk sac but no baby? :(

View Full Post

Hi all,

I went for an early scan today thanks to my early miscarriage in March, only to be told I wasnt 7 weeks and 3 days as we though, but 6 weeks and 1 day! This is going by the size of the gestational sac.

I had an external and internal scan and the sac and yolk sac were both visible buy to embyo yet.. is this normal? I feel really down but dont know if i'm overreacting..

Please answer if you can.. I'm tearing my hair out :(

xx

My baby is now an 18 week old monster!

My midwife explained it like this; the yolk sac is a precursor to the placenta... If there is a yolk sac more often than not there is a baby hiding behind it. And she was right! Fingers crossed for you too xx
