How Early Can You See A Baby On An Ultrasound?

How early can you see a baby on an ultrasound? i was looking up the dates, and when i had intercourse, it was in july, sometime before the 28th, the 28th is when i went for my ultrasound and said they saw nothing, And the blood test was negative, BUT my urine test was positive, is it because it was too early? thats what im thinking, cause i would only be two or three weeks when i went.

Hello dear ,I understand your concern.In my opinion usually the gestational sac is seen on ultrasound first.It is seen at 5 weeks in transvaginal ultrasound and a week later in transabdominal ultrasound.And fetal cardiac activity is seen around 6-8 weeks.As the urine pregnancy test is positive there might be pregnancy.I suggest you to repeat the ultrasound after 2 weeks.Nothing to worry.Avoid stress.
