oh hunni, :hugs:. Try not to think too much about it (hard, I know). Bleeding early in pregnancy is quite common. If you're really worried, find a private OB and ask for an internal ultrasound. I freaked out at 5 weeks and my OB gave me an internal u/s to find the heartbeat. It may cost a few $$'s, but for peace of mind it is worth it.
Not sure if the usual ultrasound places will do an internal u/s, thats why I suggest a private OB.
