Repost from 1st tri: 6 weeks no fetal pole?

whyhellopoppyseed

Ok, so I went in today to get an U/S to determine my EDD (since I haven't had a cycle since August 2009--I'm still BFing my son) and in the U/S we saw the yolk sac, embryo sac but no fetal pole. I finally got to see the Dr about it and she seemed perfectly happy with the scan, saying that being just at 6 weeks (based on the measurement of the sac, etc) the pole was only now beginning to form at a rate of 1mm per day. She scheduled me for another U/S NEXT Friday just incase but said that this development is completely normal.

So I was fine.

But THEN I go online (stupid stupid) and see that women can see the fetal pole AND HB by 6 weeks?...obviously my doctor's opinion is the one I should trust, but has anyone else been in this position?

Any consulation would be great. I know you ladies obviously can't see into my uterus to give me an answer, but any encouragement or stories would be so helpful right now!
