Anxiety over first ultrasound tomorrow

Hi...I am going in for my first ultrasound tomorrow and I am a nervous wreck. Im trying to stay calm and just relax but I am so scared things will not look well. Im terrified of a blighted ovum! My husband cannot get off work to go and while I have had many friends and family offer to go with, I feel like if my dh cant go I would rather just go alone and if something is wrong deal with it on my own. We have been ttc for over two years including one chemical in feb. I have PCOS. Dr put us on clomid and we got our bfp on our second round of it. I have had hcg levels taken when I first found out and they were normal, but that has been two weeks ago. Last week I had some very light pink spotting..it stopped right away and Dr said it was nothing to worry about. No cramps or anything..no real morning sickness and very sore tingly nipples. I do not have hpts in the house, but did pee on an opk which was almost black in color..same as it was about a week ago. Is anyone else just nervous and scared about their appt? I know this must seem pathetic and ungrateful, not to mention long..but I am just really scared.

Yes i am so driving myself crazy with the fear that there will be nothing in there or a baby with no heartbeat or just a sac! my husband has been very reassuring and makes me feel better i try to stay positive and am truly excited because what if i DO get to see my little baby! That its really in there with a beautiful little heartbeat will be the most amazing thing to me! even with all the morning sickness and emotions running crazy and sore breasts (that have definitely gotten bigger) I am still in disbelief that i am actually going to get to have a baby

I had my first ultrasound today, and I was very anxious too. The dr. couldn't find a heartbeat at first, but had me empty my bladder and then she was able to see one. I went in thinking I was 7 1/2 weeks (based on my LMP), but the baby is only measuring 6 1/2 weeks. I go back for another ultrasound in two weeks. She was very reassuring, but I still can't help but worry. I had a little meltdown prior to her finding the heartbeat, but thankfully, my hubby was there and he calmed me down. Oh, and often times they cannot see a heartbeat until 61/2 - 71/2 weeks, so there's a chance they won't see anything, but that it's still a healthy pregnancy. Just say a prayer... that's about all we can do!!

Hi girls..thanks for checking back and asking about my appt today. I went in and it went well. Tech was able to find heartbeat right away and it measured 130bpm. Everything looked good she said. I cried..lol. Anyways, I go back in on Tuesday to see the actual Dr for my first real appt. Today should be 7 weeks from my last lmp however the machine measured 6 weeks and 1 day. I know I actually ovulated a few days later than normal so I guess thats about right. Jillers..im glad they were able to find the hb. dont be concerned. the fact that its still early and that they did find it is very reassuring. Please let us know how it goes. Thanks!
