Done IVF Cycle. Chances Of Having Healthy Pregnancy?

Hi, I recently had my first ivf cycle and was blessed to get a bfp. At 5 weeks I developed a pain in my right side and by 5+4 went to A&E thinking it could be ectopic. Turns out it was a ruptured haemorrhagic corpus luteum. They only saw a gestational sac and called me back the following day when a yolk sac was also seen.
At 6+6 I had my scheduled viability scan and was amazed to see a tiny embryo and flutter of a heartbeat. But they said the baby measures at only 5 weeks or 4mm and the hear beat was too weak to measure. I am due to go back at 7+6 for another scan but I want an honest opinion about my chances of having a healthy pregnancy given the measurements? The clinic refused to comment.
I also wonder if the ruptured cyst could have caused trauma and slowed the development of my baby?
Many thanks.

Hi, it appears that there could be some change in the ovum, spermatozoa, or harmonal status of your body. Usually after such changes the out come may be questionable, and every step is to be examined for proper grouth of the foetus. Still there could be some functional abnormalities.
This is my openion only, and the attending doctor will be the correct judge. Thank you.
