update...I saw a heartbeat!!!

OK ladies, to anyone who has read my posts know i have had a lot og doubts about this pregnancy.  I had light brown spotting for almost 2 weeks, and 2 stints in the er, neither time were an ultrasound really helpful or reassuring.  Well, i demanded to go to my OB today for an u/s...she did one and saw a sac with something in it, but couldnt make it out.  She refered me to a radiology office where I had a formal ultrasound.  There we saw everything.  My baby measures 6wks 3 days which is right on track with my LMP......and there was heartbeat, she got it at 117 BPM....I feel a little relieved now, all the info I am seeing on the internet shows that the heart rate is right around normal, I am just hoping the next few weeks go by smoothly.  I never even thought I would ge tto see a heartbeat with this pregnancy, i am trying to be optimistically happy!
