Stressed Out

[wannabmombad]

I am a little stressed out.  I got my bfp last week and my first beta at 14dpo was 151, my second on 18dpo was 695.  They said that looks good.  I go for my us on Tuesday which will make me 5wk5days pregnant.  I'm nervous that we won't see anything.  I have had 3 prior mc due to antibodies, which I am on heparin and baby asprin.  I just don't feel pregnant.  I don't have tender breasts, morning sickness, fatigue.  I just need a little reassurance...I will be devastaded if I have another mc.  I think I will really be upset if we don't see a heartbeat, which I know may be too early.

Im sorry for your losses in the past, I know how stessfull it can be! (I have had 3 m/c myself)
I agree with worriedbabe. Don't stress too much if you don't see anything in your u/s I have read about SO many women on here (myself included) that saw nothing on early u/s and ended up stressing horribly just for everything to turn out fine. With this pg (I am 9 weeks 3 days) they did an u/s at 6 weeks and 6 weeks 4 days and found nothing but a gest sac... that was at the ER and Dr. office. Then my Dr. finally sent me for a high resolution scan at 6 weeks 4 days and we saw everything! H/B and all!! So it can depend on the machine how much you see as well. We didnt get a pic at all of our little bean on the Dr's machine until after 7 weeks.
Your #'s are VERY encouraging!! Just try to hang in there if you don't see anything so soon, and remember, between the equiptments sensitivity and the size of the baby everything could still be completely normal even if you don't see it.
Best of Luck to you!! And LOTS of sticky baby dust!!

way too early! don't expect to see a heartbeat till around 8 weeks pregnant. it's 100% normal not to feel any symptoms at this stage too...as it is also normal for symtoms to come and go throughout pregnancy. the betas do look great, so try not to worry. also, if you see nothing on your scan - that would be normal too. i know that's easier said than done, but really try to relax because stress won't do you any good.
