I recently found out I'm pregnant and I'm not sure how far along I am. My hCG levels are rising, but ultrasounds only show a gestational sac and a yolk sac. How long will it be just the yolk in the sac? When will the fetal pole start to show? How many weeks until the fetal pole starts to show? What are the best prenatal vitamins? I'm also anemic and have mental health issues. I'm nervous because it's my first pregnancy and I'm doing it alone.
