Hi there
i have done 2 pregnancy test at home at there both 99% acurate tests, and they both showed up i am pregnant.
i went to the doctors and we talked about my last period and how far along i am and she said 5 weeks, so the next week when i was 6 weeks i had a ultra sound, and nothing came up on the screen!!
im really confussed because i am now 11 days late, and as soon as we got home from the ultra sound we did another test and it came up saying positive?
im really confussed.
Could i be earlier than 6 weeks? am i pregnant at all? Rolling Eyes

thankyou

I'm shocked the doctor didn't talk to you about that. It might be too early to see anything on the ultrasound. Has another one been scheduled for a few weeks from now? When is your next doctor's appointment?

Active User, very eHealthy

remember that when they add up when your last period was to when you should be due, its all estimations.
so you could still be pregnant, but not as far along as they say you are.
keep taking your prenatals, and if and when they do the follow up ultra sound maybe youll be able to see something or else do a blood test to see if you are pregnant or not.
same thing happened to a friend of mine.
