1st Trimester

Blood test results... ugh!

Okay, so I'm freaking out a little here (okay, a lot).  I left my office around 6:30 tonight and checked one of my cell phones and there was a voice mail from my Dr's office saying that the blood tests I had done over a week ago now are in and the Dr. wants me to come in to discuss my results and they'll make me an appointment for next week... Of course at 6:30 the office was closed but luckily it's open tomorrow.  I don't think my Dr. will be in but I can't wait until next week for the results... My mind is racing, worried about everything from low HcG to HIV (highly unlikely)... Just a horrible feeling.  After looking at everything they tested we're guessing is low iron or anemia but I hate this pit in my stomach.

  • Try not to worry and get yourself too worked up. I'm sure it's hard to not think about it. Please update us when you get ahold of them. GL

  • Thanks.  My pregnancy symptoms have been growing stronger with the nausea getting worse...  I had been taking it as a good sign.  I'm starting to relax (or at least the tears have stopped).  DH (best DH in the world) and I are going to watch an old movie and hopefully I can get some sleep as I'm exhausted.

     Another possibility is increased red blood cells is possible as I was in the middle of a bad cold when I had the test done (last Thurs.)

    BTW- I was told to come in for results and it was low iron as well. They just put me on some supplements with DD. 

    Sending good baby vibes your way ;)

  • Thanks for the support.  I was surprised how upset / scared I was/am.  We're just SO excited about this pregnancy.  I'm sure everyone here can understand.

     We'll probably head to the Dr's office in the morning.  Hopefully someone will see me and I can relax a little after.

  • Just got back from the Dr. and everything is okay.  I just have a borderline immunity to Rubella (although I just checked my immunization records and was vaccinated twice).  It means that I can't be near anyone who is sick, has a runny nose or a cough...  That will be difficult but I'm relieved it's nothing more serious.

     Thanks for all of your support!
