Pregnant after a Loss

UPDATE. Will I ever learn?!?

I have my first u/s today. I'm nervous, of course, and anxious to see how things are progressing.
So what did I do? Scheduled an u/s for 3:30 PM. What the heck was I thinking? This is my 5th pregnancy so you'd think I'd know better.
Tick tock tick tock. Hoping I can keep my nerves in check for the next 5 and a half hours.
UPDATE: I had my u/s. It was okay. I was 5w5d by LMP (I wasn't charting so I don't know exactly when I ovulated) and the gestational sac measured 5w4d and was a good shape. I had a large corpus luteum cyst which my OB said was a good sign. The part that has left me uncomfortable and worried is that they didn't see a yolk sac yet or fetal pole. OB seemed unfazed, but PGAL brain is not fun and I'm really worried about a BO now. Two glimmers of hope: I know from past pregnancies that I have an extremely tilted uterus and also the u/s equipment was really old and grainy. It was transvaginal, but the image was really fuzzy compared to other ultrasounds I have. But I still really feel like I should have seen SOMETHING in the gestational sac 
.
Of course, next week I'll be out of town and cannot go in for an u/s. A follow up is scheduled for 5/15 when I'll be 7w5d by LMP. Yet another 2ww...

*All are welcome in my posts*Thanks! I'm trying not to go off the deep end. Logically, I know it could easily be fine because prior to 6 weeks ultrasounds are truly a worthless mind f*&$. I had even told myself that I was not going to look for anything beyond a sac in my uterus.
My OB almost apologized to me yesterday because even though he promised he was no more concerned about me than any other normal pregnant lady, he could tell I was upset.
I just have to get through the next 13 days and I'll have an answer.
