Early scan no yolk sac no fetal pole - any experiences?

Hi just wondered if anyone else had any experiences they could relay and ease my anxiety a bit? I am 7 weeks from the date of my last period but know I probably didn't ovulate until about day 19 (which is pushing it I think) which would actally make me 6 weeks and 2 days today. I tested positive on day 31 so I suppose I could have a short luteal phase? Not really sure on my cycle as never really thought about it before....Anyway I went on Thursday for an early scan (at consultants request) as I am very high risk for a number of reasons so I could have only been 6 weeks. Had a normal ultrasound and sonographer couldn't see yolk sac or fetal pole, she also said I was at the very small end for my dates even if I was six weeks. I am naturally concerned and although I am still testing positive I do feel as if my symptoms are reduced in the last two days and with the best will in the world cannot think that I could be that far out on dates as surely you would not test positive if you ovulated any later? Anyway if anyone has any hopeful stories I would be grateful to hear them. Thanks

Lou - I don't have any advice to offer you, I just wanted to bump this up a bit in the hope that someone could help you.

Crossing my fingers for you.

An update - went for another scan today and they saw the heartbeat. Dates and sizes still seem a bit out of kilter but I am not going to worry too much about that - Sonographer put my mind at rest about Mother nature and it not being an exact science!

Really good news.I had similar thing where they saw a heartbeat a week after the first scan that showed a sac but was too early to see anything else.I had been bleeding slightly so was worried,but that grain of rice on the screen will be three next week!
