Yesterday was my 6 week u/s and it was what I hoped for. As soon as the nurse started the scan, this tiny little blob popped up and started flashing away. It was the most beautiful sight and I fully admit to getting all teary eyed. I'm still waiting on R to use his home office scanner on the actual u/s printout, but here is a lesser quality pic I took with my camera.
The heart was beating at 89bpm, which the nurse said was great for this early, and I'm measuring 6weeks 1 day, so a day ahead! I feel like I can finally relax for a bit. After the appointment I went and bought 2 pregnancy books. Not sure how much I can get out of them at this point. One has suggested exercises for each week, which I can't do because I'm still on limited activity and pelvic rest. I think the most useful parts at this point are the developmental descriptions. Right now eyelids are starting to form and the hand plates are beginning to form.
