Hi again everyone, sorry for the one-post-then-disappearing-act!
First, my heart goes out to laubull and laughingduck and everyone else who is having a loss or scary news.
Prayers for a quick recovery and lots of physical and emotional support from your loved ones.
For me, I ended up passing a clot last Wednesday (8/5), and then the spotting stopped. Saw my doctor Thursday and she said it was probably a subchorionic hematoma. Got another HCG read Thursday also and it was 5211, up from 573 6 days before, so things seem to be progressing well, and I'm SO relieved!
My first scan is 8/21 - I'll be 7w2d, so hoping for a good strong heartbeat. (I would've loved to have it sooner, but my fertility doc is two hours away, so scheduling to where my husband can come too is difficult - plus the doc is out of town all this week! Argh, the waiting!)
Symptoms - super queasy, increasing as the day goes on (first thing in the morning I'm usually fine), constipation (UGH), super sore and huge boobs (already had to go up a cup size), dizziness (especially in the heat), and major fatigue. All annoying things on their own but I'm happy to have them after trying for several years!
Looking forward to keeping up with everyone on here more regularly
