3/17\14 positive pregnant test 4/10/14 ultrasound with large sac small yolk..what does that mean? will i miscarry

Small yolk sac: This sounds reassuring. You are probably in your 5th week. You can always have serial quant. Hcg blood tests done 48 hrs apart. Normally, the HCG (pregnancy hormone) will go up by at least 50% in a 48 hour time period. Another ultrasound in 7-10 days would also help. The odds are in your favor.
