5w 4d scan - empty sac

Hello,
looking for any similar stories positive or negative

I had a scan at 5 weeks and 4 days due to bleeding and one sided pain in my local EPU. I know my dates were 5w4d on the day of scan as ovulation confirmed via BBT etc. so no earlier no later

During my scan the sonographer measured a gestational sac which was 6 weeks and 2 days. Although a sac present she couldn’t be 100% sure on whether she could see a yolk sac. Other than that it was empty.
Ive got a rescan Thursday (25th) to determine whether it’s a viable pregnancy or not.

For the last week my head has been spiralling with forums and posts to find an answer and I know it’s 2 days away but can anyone share their experiences, either way is welcome.

Update: for anyone scrolling with same story. Scan today showed a baby measuring 7w2d. Got a SCH which explains the bleeding
