It's possible. Ultrasounds are not nearly as accurate as doctors like to think, particularly this early. However, I'm assuming that at this stage, they are also going on the date of your last period when dating this pregnancy, so chances are that they are close enough. The blood tests should be more accurate.

I'm sorry, but it is very likely that you have lost this baby, and you just haven't passed the sac etc. Usually this happens quickly, but it can take up to two weeks for it to happen. You may prefer to go into the hospital for a D&C if you don't want to wait for Nature to take its course.
