Advocate for earlier US? Or wait til 8 weeks

Pregnant again after multiple chemicals. I’m 6+1 today, which is the farthest we’ve made it so far. Started feeling nauseous yesterday which, while annoying, I’m taking as a positive sign.

However, the anxiety is killing me.

I have an US scheduled in 2 weeks but am wondering if I should advocate to get one at 7 weeks instead of 8 to alleviate nerves? I’m in USA, fwiw. My OB was very insensitive about my chemicals so I’m worried about her judging me for wanting an earlier US. (Yes, I’ve considered switching, but it’s hard to find someone who takes my insurance and is nearby).

Thoughts on US timing welcome, as well as how to stop being so dang anxious! I know I’m overestimating the likelihood of something going wrong, but I’m having a very hard time letting go of those thoughts.
