Sooo... i wasn't due to go in for an my first ultrasound til tomorrow. . But last Thursday I had a routine Pap smear at my obs office-( 4 days early ) he gave me an ultrasound ... putting me at 5 weeks pregnant, and we saw the gestational sac..:) .
On Monday I will be 5 weeks 4 days pregnant . If our numbers are correct . Can I expect to see the yolk sac tomorrow ? Or is it too early ? And when can we see fetal pole ?
I've been reading it should show up within 5.5 weeks . I really want things to show up on the ultrasound when they should ...

Any thoughts ??

Thank you

At 5 weeks 4 days most times you won't see the yolk sac. By 6 weeks 4 days you should see the yolk sac and the heartbeat.
