All Over the Place

Go figure that after I posted that my home test was negative last week, I was late. I tested again on Friday morning this time and was 'a little pregnant', meaning only faint line on the test.

Because of our history, I called my normal obgyn who had me come in for bloodwork Friday. I still don't have those results.

I spotted a bit both weekend days. It felt like every 4 hours or so, I was either up or down depending on whether there was spotting or absolutely nothing. This morning, more spotting than over the weekend. Called my doc again, they're going to call me back.

This is so nerve-wrecking. I hate this in between stuff. I hate the hopeful/reality yo-yo. It's driving me crazy.

As my husband said, 'even though we were taught in high school that there's no such thing as being a little pregnant, it sure does feel that way now'. Definitely.

So both good & bad... kinda small victory feeling we could do this on our own finally but I also won't rest easy (easier) till the 6 week mark. We have yet to ever hear a heartbeat and I just don't know if I can have much hope for this.

Please don't say 'congrats' or anything just yet. That's part of the reason I haven't said anything yet. I really do feel like this could slip at any moment. I just need support.  I need to be more than 'a little pregnant' before the congrats can roll in... you know, the delicate balance.

  1. I completely understand the desire not to be congratulated too early, I feel the same way. I have also never seen a heartbeat on ultrasound, and the only embryo we've ever seen is one in my tube.

    However, I am happy to hear you have another... chance at this again and I hope you get some more clarifying information soon. Beta hell, waiting around to know what's going on... is the worst.

    Many hugs to you, this is the toughest part.

  13. Hang in there ! Don't forget to breathe and make a shrugging gesture with your shoulders, holding them for three seconds and then relax. It helps to "melt" tension. I would be as nervous as you are in your situation.
