What questions did the other doctors ask
you? How did they determine how far along
you were? Did they ask you when your last
period was? Did they do an ultrasound?

It does happen sometimes, although it
would have been rare for you to get a +
test so early. My sister went for her 12
week scan and was 7 weeks and my friend
went for her 12 week scan and was 8 weeks

gf, I didn't think of that. You are right.
Something's wrong with one of those
doctor's calendars.
Also, I don't think an ultrasound can see
anything at that stage:
It is possible
to detect a pregnancy of 5 ½ weeks
gestation on ultrasound
. A tiny sac can be seen, but the baby and
their heart beat may not be detected yet.
Be aware that while it is possible to see
a pregnancy this small, in many cases the
pregnancy may not be detected, because the
sac is so tiny. You may need to have
another ultrasound a week or so later to
detect the pregnancy, if you still feel
you are pregnant and/or your blood HCG
levels are rising.

Hmm |
but if she took an hpt which she said was
on the 10th she would only barely be a
week pregnant
an hpt WILL NOT show a week pregnant

It could depend on how they're measuring
pregnancy. Maybe the fetus is 4 weeks old?
It could also be a lie. 
But yes, I had a very early positive with
my youngest.

I don't know if I actually thought it was
a lie, but rather someone misunderstanding
something.
How early was your earliest ultrasound,
Altari?

My first ultrasound was at 5 or 6 weeks,
about a month after my positive stick. The
doctors thought I was at 8-9 weeks, and I
started bleeding. The regular ultrasound
showed nothing so they had to do a
vaginal, which revealed how early the
pregnancy really was.

Thanks, Altari. I haven't seen anywhere
on the web where it says ultrasounds are
used at 3 to 4 weeks.

She made a topic talking about her having
implantation bleeding 11 / 8 / 2007.
By now she would be about 6 - 8 weeks
pregnant.
This topic is a lie and should be
closed...
