At this point i would say normal.
They can't detect a heartbeat until 8 weeks and before that it just looks like a black circle. The best way to check is through blood testing every few days to make sure your levels are almost doubling.

At a beta level of 700, you are not promised to see anything in the uterus. Typically our numbers for having to see anything even the tinest sac is 1000. To see a baby you have to much higher and several more weeks out. For how far along you are, your hormones are looking pretty good and to see anything on ultrasound at this stage is also good. Just relax. There won't be a baby to see for probably 2 more weeks, and even then it will look like a piece of rice.

Very normal. Your numbers need to be higher for them to see anything on the u/s. As long as your not bleeding cramping is very normal.
