He did the scrolly thing and I could see the waves and the count averaging out, I just couldn't see the flicker on bub like I usually can. He asked me to hold my breath at one point, and he took it a couple of times, but it just keeps nagging away at me how still bubs looked and how I couldn't see it myself. I'm sure I'm being stupid, it would have to be ultrasound 101, view heartbeat, I'm just freaking out as always.

As for the morning sickness, I can promise you that mine is not predictable. Every now and again I have a 'good' day and worry, and then on a day like today I haven't been able to keep anything down all day. I'm assuming the hormones are always fluctuating? I was also under the impression that once you have seen the scan and HB that the scans are a better indicator than HCG levels at this stage? I was supposed to go for repeats the other day but after a successful scan they said it wasn't necessary, unless they were checking your progesterone or something else specific.
