It says gestational sac is of 8.9mm at 5weeks and a yolk sac of 1.6mm seen. But no fetus seen as yet. Is it normal. As i am very much scared from the last incidence.

Hello and welcome to HCM,
At gestational age of 5 weeks, the fetus is not formed.
At 9 week an embryo is formed.
However, heart beat starts at this gestational age.
Besides at 5 weeks, formation of gestational sac is looked for and gestational sac is formed.
Thus, there is nothing to worry.
remain in touch with your obstetrician for antenatal care and prompt reporting in case any problem is faced.
Thanks and take care
