I had an ultrasound at 5wks 5 days with this pregnancy and only saw a gestational sac and yolk sac, also, and am now 26 weeks pregnant. If I were you, I would switch doctors. i can't believe that he told you it is your fault. IT'S NOT! I had 2 miscarriages and that is hard enough without someone making you feel like you are a terrible person.By the way, I still indulge in soda's every once in a while! I wish you all the luck!
