If you are 8 weeks pregnant is it normal for the ultrasound to show yolk and small fetal pole but cannot see heart beat?

At 8 weeks of pregnancy, an ultrasound may not always be able to detect a heartbeat if the embryo is still very small. This can be normal in some cases, especially if the pregnancy is still in the early stages of development. However, it is important for your healthcare provider to monitor the pregnancy closely to ensure that the embryo is developing properly. Follow-up ultrasound or other diagnostic tests may be recommended to assess the progress of the pregnancy and confirm the presence of a heartbeat. It's always advisable to consult with your healthcare provider if you have any concerns regarding the ultrasound findings or your pregnancy.
