Brownish blood and 1st ultrasound = worried mama

I thought i was a little over 8 weeks but when i went into the doctor yesterday because i had brownish blood when i would go to the bathroom she had me schedule an ultrasound for today. When they did the ultra sound today they had a hard time finding anything but said they saw a sac but wanted to do an internal ultrasound to see what was going on. when they did that it showed i was only 5 weeks 3 days and the sac was there but nothing inside of it :( they told me it was to early to see anything clearly. now i have to wait a couple more weeks till i go back to the doctor and i dunno what to do :( anyone ever have this happen?

What made you think you were 8 weeks along?  Is that according to your last period?  Because you could have ovulated late.  Did you test before you got your BFP and get negatives?

The same thing happened to me. I thought i was a few weeks futher along then i was. I went in for an u/s at about 6weeks (thought i was 8 weeks). Showed the sac but no heartbeat. Went back in at 6w4d and there was a heartbeat. I was not bleeding tho. In a week huge progress shows. I wouldnt stress to much, as long as you dont start cramping really bad with bright red blood.

You could have just O'd late. Were you tracking you O? If not it is very possible that you O'd late and that is why you are not as far along as you thought. I know it is scary especially when you have bleeding. Hopefully your mind will be eased in a couple of weeks.

I'm starting week 7 today....last night had some bright red spotting (an hour or so after sex....) then this morning, I've had some brown spotting.  Have a call into my Dr....haven't even had my first appointment yet.  They say this is "normal"....but I can't help but worry....

I hear you my first appointment wasnt suppose to be until February 19th and they had me come in for the bleeding (which is still brown) but now im worried a little more because there are brown clots with it too Tongue Tied very nerve wracking

 I think you should insist on a follow-up ultrasound within a week.

Honestly, the dates don't add up. If you got your BFP in December 19th, You should be 8 weeks or so. You wouldn't have been able to have a positive pregnancy test 4-5 weeks ago and still only be measuring 5+ weeks. There are some stories where things turn out ok, ie, the baby just is really slow growing and measuring behind, but these are rare stories.

I've been there, and limbo is a really really horrible place to be in. I really hate saying this, but I think you should prepare yourself for not great news.
