Today 9 weeks pregnant

Hi!
Today I'm 9 weeks pregnant and have an ultrasound again on Thursday.
I hope I'll see/hear a heartbeat on Thursday and that it has grown. Now I'm wondering: if I hear/see a heartbeat on Thursday, what are the chances it could still go wrong?
I really want this baby..

    Hi hi,

    Congratulations on your pregnancy!!
    The chance that something goes wrong is always there, you shouldn't consciously... as hard as it is... dwell on it.. stress isn't good for the baby either, and don't assume it will happen, but the chance always remains.
    Up to the 12th week the chance is greatest and after that it gets smaller and smaller, but if you hear a good beating heart next week you should just assume everything is fine.....I am exactly 24 weeks pregnant with my second today and I think that fear always remains and exists for every pregnant woman no matter how far along you are.
    You have to get over that and enjoy it.. 3 more weeks and you'll be 12 weeks and then you can really enjoy it

    Yeah, I’m definitely trying to enjoy it, but deep down in your subconscious, you don’t want to get too attached yet.
    When I’m walking around in a store seeing baby stuff and think, "nope, nothing to buy yet."
    Actually, I’d love to shout it from the rooftops, but I’m still waiting another 3 weeks.
    I have to stay positive, everything will be fine.
