Hi everyone I have first scan with doctor at 7 weeks and 3 days but she only saw a sac 5.6mm without free fluid and because I was bleeding so I was worry then I went to scan and have no good scan on that ..I was crying and sad and they tell me come back on 13/2 about next Thursday but i still bleeding without pain but I still worry so much, they don’t even measure for me that how many weeks i am? And I was read a lot on google about just only sac no yolk sac , I’m scared I will mc 😢, this is my first pregnancy ever and I don’t want to loss it . Please if anyone same me , I really have no hope right now and cried lot everyday even when I sleep and wake up, I started cry and sad, my husband really hope if it next Thursday about the second scan won’t good and he hope I can still move on and try next time .. but I’m very sad and disappointed if it not yolksac in there :((

I’ve been in that position twice so can give you the good and bad side of it
The good news is 5.6 mm sac empty is pretty normal you may have your dates wrong.
My first one I had bleeding and knew something wasn’t right I was 7 weeks went for a scan there was a 7.4mm empty sac and a bleed beside it, 1 weeks later 11.3mm empty sac the scans continued till I was 12 weeks when the last scan showed 20.5mm empty sac then I miscarried.
6 weeks later I was pregnant again I went for a scan at 6.5 weeks and got empty sac at 4.9mm went back a week later and found the Yok sac and heart beat on the blob next to it 2weeks later saw baby and heart beat fully.
I’m not going to say don’t stress because it’s impossible but please stay positive and read all the stories if u have to like I did I was prepared for the worst I would of loved to see my face when we found the heart beat, I was 2.5 weeks behind what I thought because I ovulate late always never realised have hope x

That was last year.
Of course you are strong or you wouldn’t be asking for help that takes strength.
It dosent help at all right now but one day it might please remember 1. Your allowed to grieve. 2. If it is an empty sac then it means the baby passed early on which usually means there was something wrong BUT it dosent mean it will happen again and your Definatly a lot more fertile after.
That sounds really harsh but it might help I hope it dose.

Sending you love OP.
I've got no experience of an empty sac so can't offer much in the way of advice but I did experience having my dates quite a bit out so that does happen.... I had a scan at what I thought was 7+5 going by my LMP, but I only measured 6+1 and was told it was probably due to my longer than average cycles and ovulating later than expected.
If I'd gone even a day or 2 earlier, chances are there would have been nothing to see on the scan.
It could well be the case for you that your dates are out as mine were and all will be ok at your follow up scan.
All is not lost. Good luck x
