At the entrance of the gynecology department of the hospital, it can be seen that after receiving the ultrasound report, each mother's expression is different. Some pregnant mothers are worried that their fetus may be harmed, so they are happy to see that everything on the ultrasound scan is normal; Some expectant mothers are stunned to see that there is no fetal bud on the ultrasound scan. So, which ultrasound image is the fetal bud?
Firstly, in the early stages of pregnancy, the most common ultrasound images only show the gestational sac, but not the fetal heart and embryo. After a period of time, the pregnant mother can see the gestational sac in the ultrasound image, which is located below the uterus and in the middle of the gestational sac. If the position of the gestational sac is found to be biased towards the right side of the gestational sac, it is necessary to quickly seek medical attention to clarify the reason and receive timely treatment.
Secondly, it should be noted that there is indeed a situation where the embryo has problems. At this point, no matter how sad the pregnant mother is, she can only terminate the pregnancy. But there is also a situation where the baby is actually normal, but the gestational age may not be the same as the last menstrual period. In this case, due to the small size of the entire embryo, the presence of the fetus cannot be determined through ultrasound scanning, so only an empty sac can be seen.
Finally, if there is a situation where the fetus cannot be seen, pregnant mothers should not worry too much. You can have another ultrasound examination in a week. Many times, expectant mothers may find that worrying is just unnecessary. From a purely medical perspective, if the gestational sac has grown to a certain volume but the fetal heart and bud cannot be seen, then they have to face the problem of embryonic arrest.
