Hello everyone! My name is Kelsey and I am new to the board. My husband and I are TTC #1... again After 3 months of trying, we conceived in August... on our 2 year anniversary. Baby was to be due on my best friends birthday... everything seemed so perfect. I knew there was a small risk of miscarriage, but I refused to entertain the thought of it. At 6 weeks, I had a couple drops of blood during a bowel movement that came from the vagina. I called my doc right away to see if I could get in before 8 weeks. They of course wanted to see me right away, if anything just to settle my mind.
They took 2 samples of blood to measure my HCG and would get the results on Friday.
On Friday, a nurse called me with the results. My first reading was 523. My second was 584. I knew from the 1st number that something wasn't right. For 6 weeks along, my HCG should be in the thousands. There was a pause on the other end... some hesitation... then the words I never want to hear again. "From these numbers, this is not a viable pregnancy." I just started balling my eyes out. I told my husband when he got home, and he cried. After 8 years together( 2 married), we were estatic to create a 3rd.
I miscarried naturally, with little pain and no complications 2 weeks after getting the news.
Which brings us to today. My ovulation predictor was postive today... so we have been and will be busy the next few days! Wish us luck!
