Couldn't find heartbeat

I had my first u/s to date the pregnancy today and they couldn't find the HB. The baby is measuring around 7 weeks, which is earlier than my LMP, but I usually ovulate at least a week later than the "usual" so I had expected it to be around there anyway. When I talked to my doctor he said we are not going to do anything about it yet because there is still a chance that it's a viable pregnancy and we just didn't happen to find the HB this time. He said that the baby looks fine and healthy in all other regards. We will wait and if I continue to have no bleeding after a couple of weeks, we'll do another u/s and get a definitive answer. 

I just wish I knew for sure. It's hard to wait. I honestly don't have a lot of hope at this point...I just have a feeling it's not meant to be. I am so sad to be putting bad news on the board, because I know it makes me feel a little sick when I see other people's bad news, so I hope I'm not making anyone else scared for what might happen in their own pregnancies. :( I am going to take a little break from posting on the board until we find out for sure (might lurk). I wish you all happy and healthy pregnancies!
