Hi dear,
If you have regular 28-30 days cycle than at present you should be around 8-9 weeks which is clearly picked in USG.
If the UPT is positive and scan does not reveal any thing than either it is a delayed conception or considering your past history of missed abortion and present symptom of spotting, there is a probability that you have again gone through the same.
To confirm, either wait for 10 days and get an ultrasound repeated or go for BHCG test, two tests 48hrs appart, which will clearly resolve the thing.

All the best

there is specific time period when we get in ultrasound may be after 3 months
in the early stage te embryo is small and ultrasound machine is not able to read
as the growth increases it pushes the uterus up in the abdomen and we can read it with machine
