Empty gestational sac at 5+3

I haven't posted much here but wondered if anyone has some experience of this. We're TTC no2 (already have a 2 year old daughter born after 3 MCs and a very scary pregnancy/birth). I finally plucked up the courage to try again and got pregnant this January but started spotting a week later. A scan at 5wks+3 revealed just a 4mm gestational sac with no yolk. The sonographer said I should be further along and the nurse also looked through my notes and said that looked too small for how far along I was but that they would do bloods and schedule a rescan in 10 days. They didn't seem particularly positive.

Well that scan is tomorrow morning and I am absolutely terrified, I'm actually shaking thinking about it. We had come away from the hospital accepting that it was all over but since then they've told me my HCG levels are continuing to double, I'm having pronounced pregnancy symptoms and the spotting reduced and eventually stopped yesterday. According to the dates I should be 6+4 tomorrow.

Does anyone have any knowledge of anything like this? It has been very difficult to feel pregnant and know that it may all be for nothing.
