¿Cómo está mi bebé?
El embrión tiene 6 semanas de edad y todavía no tiene la apariencia de un ser humano. Se lo mide desde extremo de la cabeza al extremo de la cola (longitud céfalo-caudal). En este momento la longitud céfalo-caudal es de 2 a 4 mm.
Esta es una gran semana para tu bebé porque hay grandes cambios. ¡El corazón ya está latiendo regularmente!. También se comienzan a visualizar los miembros y los ojos se pueden ver aunque se los encuentra a los lados de la cabeza y no en la zona de la frente.
Como los órganos y los miembros están en un período temprano de desarrollo, son muy sensibles a ciertas drogas o medicamentos, virus y bacterias que pueden atravesar fácilmente la barrera placentaria (placenta). Recuerda que durante esta etapa debes tener mucho cuidado, ya que la mayoría de los defectos del embrión ocurren entre las semanas 6 y 10, lapso conocido como período embrionario.
¿Qué me sucede esta semana?
Ya estás embarazada de un mes pero nadie, a excepción de tu pareja, puede notarlo todavía.
Tus pechos continúan tensos y sensibles, tu peso puede no haber variado, o incluso puedes haber adelgazado un poco por las náuseas y los vómitos que han aparecido.
Seguramente ya hiciste el test de embarazo en la semanas anteriores. Si todavía no lo has hecho, pues ¡adelante!, ya que debes hacer una consulta médica y establecer el plan de acción para tener un bebé sano. Recuerda de evitar la ingesta de alcohol, tabaco, drogas, medicamentos y reducir la toma de café al mínimo, ya que altas dosis de cafeína están asociadas a interrupciones de embarazo durante el primer trimestre. También debes evitar exponerte a radiaciones como los rayos X (radiografías) y sustancias químicas peligrosas.

How your baby’s growing: This week’s major developments: The nose, mouth, and ears that you’ll spend so much time kissing in eight months are beginning to take shape. If you could see into your uterus, you’d find an oversize head and dark spots where your baby’s eyes and nostrils are starting to form. His emerging ears are marked by small depressions on the sides of the head, and his arms and legs by protruding buds. His heart is beating about 100 to 160 times a minute — almost twice as fast as yours — and blood is beginning to course through his body. His intestines are developing, and the bud of tissue that will give rise to his lungs has appeared. His pituitary gland is forming, as are the rest of his brain, muscles, and bones. Right now, your baby is a quarter of an inch long, about the size of a lentil bean.
How your life’s changing: You may find yourself developing a bit of a split personality — feeling moody one day and joyful the next. Unsettling as this is (especially if you pride yourself on being in control), what you’re going through is normal. Ricocheting emotions are caused partly by fluctuating hormones. But hormones aside, your life is about to change in a big way — and who wouldn’t feel emotional about that?

Spotting (spots of blood on your underpants or toilet tissue after urinating) or bleeding is relatively common in early pregnancy, affecting up to a quarter of pregnant women. It may occur in a normal pregnancy, but sometimes it can be the first sign of miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy. If you have any spotting or bleeding, call your provider.

¿Qué es el ultrasonido transvaginal o endovaginal y en que casos se recomienda?
En este caso, una sonda o transductor adecuado, se introduce en la vagina para obtener imágenes más claras y confiables, ya que por vía abdominal en muchas ocasiones interfieren gases intestinales, material fecal, contextura del paciente o por la imposibilidad de retener la orina, principalmente en pacientes ancianos.
El médico puede solicitar este tipo de ultrasonido por indicaciones tanto ginecológicas o del embarazo. También lo puede sugerir el radiólogo, dependiendo de los hallazgos obtenidos con el ultrasonido abdominal.
La gestación anembrionada (huevo huero, blighted ovum en inglés) es un embarazo donde el supuesto embrión sólo desarrolla el saco embrionario. Lo más corriente es que se produzca tras una muerte del embrión que no va acompañada del no desarrollo de trofoblasto. Para su diagnóstico, el tamaño ha de ser suficiente para poder valorarse con ecografía. Una gestación es anembrionada si la ecografía puede descubrir un saco vacío de 13 mm o un diámetro de saco gestacional de 18 mm sin embrión.

Definition: Transvaginal ultrasound is a type of pelvic ultrasound. It is used to look at a woman’s reproductive organs, including the uterus, ovaries, cervix, and vagina. Transvaginal means across or through the vagina.
How the Test is Performed:
You will lie down on a table with your knees bent and feet in holders called stirrups. The health care provider will place a probe, called a transducer, into the vagina. The probe is covered with a condom and a gel. The probe sends out sound waves, which reflect off body structures. A computer receives these waves and uses them to create a picture. The doctor can immediately see the picture on a nearby TV monitor.
The health care provider will move the probe within the area to see the pelvic organs. This test can be used during pregnancy.
In some cases, a special transvaginal ultrasound method called saline infusion sonography (SIS), also called sonohysterography or hysterosonography, may be needed to more clearly view the uterus.
This test requires saline (sterile salt water) to be placed into the uterus before the ultrasound. The saline helps outline any abnormal masses, so the doctor can get a better idea of their size.
SIS is not done on pregnant women.
How to Prepare for the Test: You will be asked to undress, usually from the waist down. A transvaginal ultrasound is done with your bladder empty.
How the Test Will Feel
The test is usually painless, although some women may have mild discomfort from the pressure of the probe. Only a small part of the probe is placed into the vagina.
Why the Test is Performed
Transvaginal ultrasound can help diagnose the cause of certain types of infertility, pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, and menstrual problems. It can show the lining of the uterus (endometrium). The test may reveal:
Ovarian cysts
Ovarian tumors
Pelvic infection
Uterine fibroids
Uterine lining polyps
Thickened uterine lining in cases of postmenopausal bleeding
Transvaginal ultrasound is also used during pregnancy to monitor the growth of the fetus, listen to the unborn baby’s heart beat, and to check for ectopic pregnancy and other potential problems.
An anembryonic gestation (aka blighted ovum) is a pregnancy in which the very early pregnancy appears normal on an ultrasound scan, but as the pregnancy progresses a visible embryo never develops.
In a normal pregnancy, an embryo would be visible on an ultrasound by six weeks after the woman’s last menstrual period.
