I also just found out I am pregnant. I had my first U/S scan done at 6 weeks, and all they saw was an empty (no fetal pole) sac the size of a small marble (1cm x 1cm). The doc said he was concerned because it was so small, but I went back this week (at 8 weeks) and it's now on track with the "growth" chart. Even saw heartbeat, head, eye (profile view) and arms!

IMHO, I wouldn't worry about not seeing anything yet. Maybe in a week or two. Ultrasounds are notorious for not showing the whole picture, especially when it's SO small.

PS- My GP didn't see anything on the U/S, only when I went to the gyno did it show up. I actually wondered if GP really knew how to work the U/S properly, because it was the same day! (Also, having a full bladder can apparently make a difference in what they can see, so make sure you go the gyno with some liquid in you!)
