Congrats! I know you how you feel! I had one done at urgent care last week .. I am now 7 weeks. And seeing that little hear flutter on screen gives you nothing but a good feeling! Now I just have to make it to 12 weeks

Like Losing said... the risks decrease after you see a heartbeat but they will decrease more significantly after the second trimester starts. Congrats!!!!

I have heard that if you see a strong HB then it's a good sign and that the risks decrease slightly! Good luck!

yes once you finish your first trimester the risk of miscarriage is very very low. Good luck

the risk of miscarriage does decrease a little once you have seen the heartbeat.  It will decrease even more once you hit the 2nd trimester.
