Update: U/S went well!!!

I posted yesterday about being nervous for my first u/s today due to spotting and a mmc in Feb. BUT
Baby was alive and well!!! 🥰
I measured a couple days ahead at 10 weeks instead of 9w5d. So.my due date is getting chaged to January 7th instead of my bday on the 9th.
Heart rate was 180 and I got to hear it 😍 I saw the little flicker up on the screen and felt instant relief, it was amazing.
Baby jumped and wiggled around as the tech was looking around.
I'm surprised I ovulated 2 days earlier, because that means my temp took like 5 days to rise post ovulation, but that makes sense because I tested positive so early, at what I thought was 9dpo, I was really 11 dpo.
She did measure inside a dark area beside the baby's sac, didn't look like much but she said that could be related to the spotting but didn't see any active bleeding. So I think all the brown spotting was old blood coming from that area. But she said yes I could still have more spotting. It feels reassuring to have a reason though, and it looked far enough away from baby and placenta.
I was so anxious, heart was racing, I forgot to take a video for my husband like I planned to! But I go back in a couple weeks for first trimester screening so will try to remember then.
Sorry for the long post, I'm just so happy and relieved. I feel like I can start getting excited about this pregnancy:):):)
Thank you all for your kind words, I try my best to send the positivity back as well!
Also, one thing that surprised me was how high up baby was sitting already! I was definitely using my doppler too low. But baby was up more in my lower stomach area vs pelvis. The tech said yes, with subsequent pregnancies the uterus rises faster.
