What an emotional roller coaster!

For those who read my discussion "waiting for a miscarriage," here's an update:
My midwife texted me this afternoon to check on me. I told her I hadn't started yet (AF) and wanted another US eventually just to confirm everything even though all other signs led to no baby. She had availability to see me this afternoon and did and US, but she doesn't have a transvaginal probe. But from the picture on the transabdominal one, my gestational sac grew by 10mm in 1 week. It still looked empty, but we wanted to look closer so she sent me to get a transvaginal US. As soon as the probe was in the tech said, "there's your baby!" I couldn't believe it! There it was! I saw the heartbeat and everything! I'm measuring 6w3d, which is what the other US place said I was a week ago. But this time I could see the yolk sac and apparently you can get a more accurate reading and measure things better. I knew I ovulated later than usual, but I'm still measuring 10 days later than what my midwife thought going by when I could've conceived and by my hcg and progesterone. Anyway, THANK YOU everyone for all of the well wishes, thoughts, prayers, hugs, and fx's from my last post. This has been one wild ride and I'm beyond thrilled about my ultrasound today! That was the most beautiful sight I've ever seen in my life! My first heartbeat!

@ShakeUpTampa it's so tricky going by lmp. My dates change between ovulation date vs lmp. I'm wishing the best for you!

@Mommyamp yes, awful to have backlash. But I'm PGAL and I understand the emotions you go through when you've had a loss and the last thing you want to hear about is other people being pregnant. But still, some of the comments were totally unnecessary. On one hand, they tell you they hope you get your rainbow baby soon, and on the other hand, when you do get pregnant, they can be hateful/jealous, etc. I'm just trying not to let it get to me. I really shouldn't let it bother me, but it has been. I just keep telling myself that my baby is wonderful and the fact that I'm pregnant is too
You have wonderful, unbelievable, incredible, once-in-a-lifetime news, so just bask in the glory of your so far healthy pregnancy and stop spreading lies about other people who haven't had your luck and asked something so small of you. Like @migdala I wish you nothing but the best but this is too heinous to ignore.

Then she came here and said they gave her "negative backlash" when really all they did was ask her to follow the understood rules of respect of the community she chose to be apart of.
I can understand both sides, but I definitely feel for the TTCAL community on this one. If it was me I would've just admitted I should've used a TW and moved on from the situation.
