I think since I apparently just had an AF, that I'll try to convince hubby to start trying this cycle. I only have one ovary left, so let's not waste any of those eggs, am I right?

 

[Megg33k]

I always want everyone to try 100% of the time! LOL So, YES!

Oh, the OBGYN's office just called. My HCG finally dropped into the 20's (as of the 19th). They want to take blood again August 2 and then every 2 weeks until it bottoms at 0. I thought the bleeding I just had was a period, but with 20-something HCG in the blood, is that even possible? Hmm.. I swear, this miscarriage has been way more complicated than my other one. Of course, I never followed up with anyone back then either, so maybe if I had, it would have been more complicated

 

[Megg33k]

It maybe could be... I don't know for sure though! Glad its dropping!

 

[heather_dw]

I have a feeling that it might be almost zero at this point. If it was 20 on Monday, it should be gone by now.

Heather why don't you try FRER and see if you get a BFN, that might help you a little

 

[Megg33k]

I agree... FRER might set your mind even more at ease!

Had blood work done today because I was having a big freak out. I was convinced my pregnancy symptoms were fading and that I was going to miscarry. I mean, literally convinced. I didn't think breasts were sore anymore, wasn't having heartburn, felt like I was having mild cramps, etc. I think it comes with the territory after having two losses. My mom explained it well today when we were talking and she said it's like having Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). I thought that was pretty profound coming from mom, especially since I am the mental health professional! Why the hell didn't I think of that??

I called my doc first thing this am and asked if they could get me in for some blood work and exam. Turns out things still look good, very good even!!! Hcg was 7,862! (Doc was hoping for at least 4,000) Did an ultrasound and saw the gestational sac and yolk. Have an ultrasound scheduled for next Thursday, hope to see the heartbeat! Please oh Please let us see the heartbeat. Let there be a little one in there!

Today, I finally starting up knitting charity baby/preemie hats again. I have mixed feelings. One of these days, I'd like to knit stuff for a baby of my own. It seems like I'm always making something for others.

 

[Megg33k]

You'll definitely be making stuff for your own baby one day soon... You're just practicing so its all perfect when the time comes!

It's all building up credits in the Bank of Karma, Heather, good for you

here's the hat. I'm only 20 rows in out of 48, so it's got a ways to go
