Nervous! First Ultrasound tomorrow!

I am so excited and nervous for my first ultrasound tomorrow. Just praying I see a little heartbeat flickering. I am 7 weeks, if I don't see a heartbeat I should be concerned correct??? I have read online that once you see a heartbeat the miscarriage rate drops to 3 or 5 percent? I hope that is true because this constant worrying is so hard!

    Congrats on your pregnancy, I am 7 weeks as well and with my last baby I was worried about the same thing. My OB said that seeing a heartbeat at 7 weeks is a very good sign, if they don't see a heartbeat it could be the dates were miscalculated. I am a worrier too, after 2 children you think I would be ok with being pregnant and just enjoying it but like you the worrying is hard. I am trying not to worry and you should do the same. Let us know about the ultrasound!

    Glad to hear I am not the only one worrying :) There is a strong possibility I could be further along then 7 weeks. That is why they are doing the ultrasound tomorrow to check. I hope so because I can't handle the morning sickness much longer! Thanks for your kind words! I will post tomorrow!
