Is it early for a ultra sound if you are only 2 weeks pregnant?

It's too early for an ultrasound at 2 weeks pregnant.

Here's why:

* Pregnancy is dated from the first day of your last menstrual period (LMP), not from conception. So, at 2 weeks pregnant, you are actually only about 1 week past ovulation.

* The embryo is still very small and may not be visible on an ultrasound at this stage. An ultrasound typically can't detect a pregnancy until around 5-6 weeks from your LMP.

What's recommended:

* Wait until you are at least 5-6 weeks pregnant. This gives the embryo time to grow large enough to be visible on the ultrasound.

* Talk to your doctor. They can advise you on the best time for an ultrasound based on your individual situation.

Remember, it's important to follow your doctor's guidance for prenatal care.
