all went well today!! we saw the heartbeat and it was amazing:) I'm so happy.
I was irrationally worried about the visit, but the RE said i'm right on track.
I go back again next week for another ultrasound.
girls that have used a RE, how often did you go for ultrasounds in the beginning. I was suprised that he wanted me back again next week. but he said it was standard.

...hello out there!
dx with anovulatory PCOS 2005
off bcp 11/11
a few rounds of clomid and femara... no response.
injectables/IUI 12/12... BFN
Feb 13 IVF cycle converted down to IUI due to low follicle response... BFFN
one last IVF attempt April/May 2013: 19 retrieved. 10 fertilized. 2 transferred in a 3dt. 4 frosties... BFP!!
EDD: 1/21/14... Induced early at 36+6. Our LO was born 12/30/13
I had one at 6w4d and then at 9w3d. We always knew how far along I was b/c of IVF, so maybe my first one was scheduled so I'd be far enough along to most likely see a heartbeat. (I'm assuming it was too early to see a HB at your first u/s?) Enjoy the extra glimpses of baby though!
.
it was too early to see the HB.
and i'm certainly enjoying all these u/s because I know that they'll be few and far between when I move to my mw.

I had two u/s with my RE. I had one at 5w5d and 6w6d. Though, according to baby's measurements, I was technically 6w4d and 7w5d. After those, our RE discharged us to my OB! Getting discharged was so exciting! Our office gave us cookies!

The sitting in the waiting room for an US is so stressful! I always get so worried.
So glad everything looks great!
I would only had one US with my RE (@ 7 weeks) when she released me to my OB, but since I was spotting, I called and went in for another one with her because I couldn't get an appointment with my OB for another couple of weeks.
Happy to hear that everything went great, and you got to hear the heartbeat.
I know it's different, but I work with a Fertility OB and I will have 1 ultrasound around week 8. At that time I will be handed off to my midwife.
