Yes you are overreacting which is understandable. What kind of doctor would tell you everything is ok if it isn't? To what are you comparing the heartrate when you think that it is slow? I was told by my doctor that after seeing the heart beat I had an 85% chance of a successful pregnancy. HOWEVER...and I must stress this....I had substantial bleeding the entire first trimester which may have lowered my overall percentage of success your doctor might give you a higher percentage. I think that you should be thrilled!!!! Your HCG and progesterone are way high! There is a heartbeat on a trans abdominal sono which in itself is pretty amazing! You must be thin, I am soooo jealous. And your pregnancy is dating right on for where you think you are! Why worry about things that are not happening? I think you should take the entire day and be filled with joy and anticipation for the little person you are creating! You are blessed to have everything be going so well!
