cherished - Don't know if you have checked out the last thread or not I posted most of this there, but I never had any symptoms until 6 wks (this pg) and 7 wks (DD). All I had with DD was no AF until M/S reared its ugly head as soon as I had the BT at 7 wks. If you are worried definitely get another BT to see how your levels have risen since last time just to ease your mind.

Also I had my first scan at 6w6d (had some spotting) and saw a HB externally, maybe you could convince your dr to bring yours forward a week? Although a lot won't if they don't have the capability to do an internal if they can't find anything externally (if that makes sense!!) but you never know if you don't ask - my ob has been very flexible in his efforts to ease my worries.

Take it easy, and try not to compare pregnancies!
