Anyone have an appointment this week?
I have my first on Thursday! Feeling good and hopeful but also eager to have it be here already. It's an ultrasound followed by an appointment with the doctor. Weirdly enough, my regular doctor is out on maternity leave, and the covering doctor is a man so I'm just a teeny bit uncomfortable with that, but there's not much I can do since it's just the two doctors in the office. I'm sure he's nice, it's just that I've never had a male physician, especially a male OB/GYN. DH will be with me and he's a lot more anxious than I am since the last time we were in the office together for an u/s with my first pregnancy, *TW* -- the u/s showed an empty gestational sac and my doctor gently told us to prepare for a miscarriage, which was probably as bad as any first ultrasound could go. So, obviously hoping this one goes a little bit better. I think I will be just a little over 6 weeks on Thursday so I'm crossing my fingers for a heartbeat!

ETA Well wishes to everyone with appts this week!
@acgonzalez22 Glad your appointment went well!
I have my first appointment on Wednesday for an ultrasound and to talk to the doctor. I'll only be 5 weeks 2 days though so there probably will not be much to see. I don't know if this is going to make me feel better or worse. I'm hoping they will schedule me for another appointment next week too so we can see the heartbeat.
FX for great appointments for everyone who has one this week!
Hcg levels are also looking good, 2525 on thurs and doubled to over 5000 in 48 hrs. I'm so thankful that everything looks good so far- I've been a nervous wreck leading up to this!
wishing everyone a good week and positive vibes!
@Marley629 congrats on great betas. I think you can begin to see hb as early as 5 weeks but it's also okay to see not much of anything. Good luck for a great apt.
@TigerCakes
My advice to you is don't go in expecting anything and just be excited! I am a very anxious person and I went in hoping to see more and I was very upset afterwards even tho dr said it was normal to not see much at 5 weeks.
@grochril congrats on a great apt.

I have an US on Thursday when I will be 6 weeks 1 day. I have super bad anxiety so my dr is giving me weekly US until later on. I swear the US pats just make my anxiety worse though. I also have a history of loss/ectopic so there is some reasoning to my worry. We already know this baby is in the uterus though so that is one positive. I am a huge worry wart and when we only saw a sac at 5 weeks I was devastated because I was expecting at least a yolk sac. Dr said it's perfectly normal but i can't help but worry. I also had some spotting yesterday hopefully due to doing the deed the day before but I always jump to the worst conclusion. I also have had no symptoms lately. Send me some positive vibes.

@TigerCakes FX for an awesome ultrasound this week!
ETA @Marley629 They had to increase my synthroid by 2 levels in order for my #' S to be where they should. FX they level out soon.

@kikikav You heard the the heartbeat?! Awesome!!
With my last pregnancy I had the first ultrasound scheduled for 8 weeks but didn't make it that far.
Also since I've been having no symptoms I kinda just want confirmation that this is real.
