CONGRATS MARIE!!! My advice to you is to buy a 3 pack of FRERs and take one every morning.. very reassuring to see how nice and dark they get
AFM- Sorry for the late update once again, I will have internet again tomorrow!!!
The good news: they did another ultrasound and found nothing abnormal. DH and I got to see a gestational sac and YOLK SAC smack dab in he middle of my uterus!!! No swollen ovaries or tubes, nothing to note at all.
Now for the BAD news. I apologize for saying my hCG was 31,000 two days ago, I was WRONG it was
21,000. So that makes much more sense. So as you all know, they were expecting it to double as it should in a normal pregnancy. So we were expecting at least 42,000+.
It was
24,000. Went up 30%. A 60% increase is where they begin to worry.. So they diagnosed me with a threatened miscarriage. I do not want to believe it. I want to think my levels were low since I've worried and been sick and not eaten for 2 days, being so worried about everything.
Anyone, please, tell me this can happen in a normal pregnancy. Tell me things sound okay and that hormones can fluctuate. I am so terrified.
Soooooo we will go back in 48 hours for more bloodwork. And I have another ultrasound scheduled a week from now to make sure things look okay and hopefully see a heartbeat. Doc said once we can see that, we can relax. I have prenatal care now @ Mt. Carmel St. Ann's (the hospital I have been going to), and will deliver there also if we get that far. It is a maternity hospital and I really loved how wonderful the nurses were.
HAPPY FRIDAY GIRLS
