I had 3 test say positive, went to the doctor and got my vitamins... My husband and I are excited. I am really early like 2-3 weeks. My question is "Is it normal to not see the baby yet this early"? I mean the doc said he couldn't see anything. They had already informed me that my test was a faint positive and that they may not detect it. Just worried as this is my first child. Also the doc said he can't promise that I won't micarry or have tubal pregnancy, that if I have cramps or bleeding to come in asap.. My other question is "Do they tell that to everyone? I have another ultra sound Monday, they think I am real early and they should be able to tell me a due date.. Thanks.. just concerned!
xoxo

Congratulations...
this is the best Christmas present ever you would get..
Take care of yourself and if you have a positive mind everything would be positive..
to see the baby is not yet the right time... Doctor's advice would be great.. be prepared...and enjoy for the next coming years...

When I went in and got an ultrasound done around 6 weeks, the doctors had a hard time spotting my little guy out on the screen. I think doctors might say more now possibly about bleeding or spotting in early pregnancy. I spotted around the same time I had the ultrasound done, and my son same out very healthy and big. You are still early in your pregnancy, which is prob. just your doctor letting you know of everything.
But yes, any cramps that just don't feel right, or spotting even a little but; go in right away. Keep taking your vitamins, eating well, and keeping up on fluids, and I would try not to worry.
And of course- Congratulations I am happy for you! This is such an exciting time!

Yes, they tell everyone that no pregnancy can be guaranteed safe from miscarriage or tubal, and you must contact your doc asap if you are bleeding. It's much too early to see anything.
I know it's exciting and nerve wracking, but you need to try to stop worrying so much and relax a bit. The stress is not good for you or your baby. Take care of yourself and congrats!

If you are 2-3 weeks you really will not see anything. My doc told me the same thing all 4 times. Just keep doing what you have always been doing and you will be fine. Once you are 4 months that is the safe zone. And what that is is that not always but most of the time everything will work out good for you. I hope this kinda helps ya a bit

There is always a possibility that you can miscarry this early in the pregnancy. Doctors do tell that to everyone...This early in the pregnancy you won't be able to see the baby, but there should be signs that you are pregnant that the doctor should see...like in your uterus or something. Just take care of yourself and be careful. That's why they tell women not to tell anyone until after the first trimester (the first three months). Good Luck!

They don't say that to everyone, because most people don't know until they're around 5-6 weeks, and the first 12 weeks there is always a chance something could go wrong, the baby is the size a pea, that's why they can't really see it..But congrats and best of luck

Yup, way too early. Be patient, don't rush your pregnancy. Just be content being pregnant (even through the morning sickness) and you'll be glad later when the baby comes. What you can do is get a diary and jot down your thoughts and body changes you are going through. You can get a book "What to expect when you're expecting". It's a really nice book and will help you to understand the development of your baby as you progress. There is a whole series of books of the "what to expect..." Knowing what's happening to you and your baby will definitely ease any anxiety you may have during your pregnancy.

Yes its to early for them to see anything on the screen! They see the place where baby is going to be but that's it! It also depends on the ultrasound....you need a vaginal ultrasound this early.
At 6 weeks preggo you should defiantly see a "bean" lol with a little fluttering heartbeat but again it depends how up to date their ultrasounds are!
By ultrasound they can tell you when you conceived and when your due!
Try not to worry everything should be fine just take case of yourself!

Yeah if you are that early, it will be hard for them to see the baby. When I was 10 weeks, I had to have a vaginal ultrasound. The baby just looked like a little bean LOL Congrats to you and your husband!!!!!!!!

Congratulations!!! You sound so happy so I'm very happy for you. Everything you said is normal. It won't be long until you see that lil stinker on the screen. Then you'll also get to hear its heart beat. That's really cool too!
