6-7 weeks, gestational and yolk sac but no embryo

Hi all. I had an ultrasound and vaginal scan at what I thought was 7 weeks on Friday. I do ovulate very late though so possibly 5-6 weeks. They saw only a sac but no embryo. They told me not to worry. That they suspect I'm earlier than I thought. I have to return in 10 days for another scan. My hcg level was high at 24,000, 48 hours later today it was 34,000. This hcg seems high for only 5-6 weeks so I thought they should have seen a fetal pole by now. I'm really stressing out. We lost our boy at 31 weeks to a TFMR only 4 months ago. Please tell me if anyone has had the same and it turned out positive?

Sorry for your loss 4 months ago. Hope and pray things will be okay.

I had something similar. I thought I was 7 weeks and went for an early scan to be told I was more like 5-6 weeks and they could only see a sac and yolk sac no fetal pole, went back a week later and fetal pole was there (I am now 11 weeks pregnant) so ovulated later than I had tracked. Fingers crossed for you!
