Yesterday was my first dr appt at 6 weeks. HCG levels were 6000+, which is where they should be, and I am going for a dating u/s today. Yay! So relieved!
I did at 6 weeks and 4 days (thought I was 8 weeks when I went in for my first appt)... but from what I've been told, it's highly unusual to hear a heartbeat at that time. So don't freak if you don't... it's totally normal. A lot of doctors say that you can't hear the heartbeat until something like 10 weeks. Guess my kid is just loud... like her mama!
I've had 2 appts but still haven't actually heard the heartbeat, I've only seen it. My doctor never actually tried to let me hear it though. Seeing it was enough for me

Update: all done! It was measuring 6w 5d, so my due date is still the same (aug 19). I saw the heartbeat flickering!!!!! Soooo cool. The tech printed me a picture, I cant stop looking at it!
