My doctor told me that now that we've seen the heartbeat, the chance of miscarriage is only about 3%, compared to the 20% or so before the heartbeat. We feel like it's safe to start telling people, so we'll tell our parents this weekend. Our next appointment is in 4 weeks and we will hear the heartbeat then.
Here's the ultrasound from yesterday at 7 weeks 5 days. The baby's head is on the left, and I think the umbilical cord is on the bottom right. The yolk sac is behind the baby, so you can't see it.

Congrats on this milestone! This was such a big deal for me and I was so excited to "see' my little one. It goes really fast so enjoy every second!
Did you cry? I cried when I first heard and saw Kylie's heartbeat. As if, at that moment, it offically became real. So exciting. Very happy for you mommas!
Yay! I can imagine what a relief that was! I can't wait until we see ours!
Mrs. G- I got a little teary, but I held it together. Mostly I was just in awe.
Mrs. B- I will be stalking your blog!
