I had my first OB appointment and ultrasound today, and the pregnancy is really a new pregnancy! We got to see our little bean's heartbeat, and I am so happy. I know we are not out of the woods yet, but I feel relieved to have made it to this milestone. We haven't made it this far with the last two pregnancies.
I am estimated to be 6w5d, due on 10/14. I must have ovulated right on my regular schedule rather than a week late like after my first loss, which I wasn't expecting and explains this pleasant surprise. Our little bean's hb was estimated to be 132 bpm.
Here's a pic (I was a little worried about the shape of the sac, but the OB said it looks completely normal):

Yes, I guess I was. I was especially surprised that I was as far along as I am. I keep going back to look at the picture just so I can believe this is real.
Thank you, everyone. It's so nice to have support. I'm hoping I have many other TTCAL ladies joining me soon.
