Remember I was 5w3d with no fetal pole?
Well, today I'm 7w1d (according to u/s) and the baby's heart rate is 133!
It was nice to see. They didn't have to do a transvaginal this time, which was also nice.
Oh, and I would suggest to any new mamas who have yet to have an u/s--you do not actually have to drink 24ounces of water if you cannot fit that much into your bladder. I've spent plenty an u/s in agony because I did so, and finally figured out that I can drink half that and have a full bladder without feeling that pain you feel when you drink 24 ounces and hold it for an hour or more while you wait! I drank 13 ounces today and the tech commented on how full my bladder was. I knew I knew I was previously overfull. In fact, last time they said I was so full I was squishing everything.

That's great!
