Hawaii Babies

Doctor appointment follow up.

I'm finally back and feel a little bit more hopeful.

They did an ultrasound on me and it looks like I'm measuring 4 weeks now rather than 6 weeks like I originally thought.  Because of that, there is no fetus yet or fetal pole so I need to give it a few more weeks before my next u/s.

The doctor did an exam and says my cervix is closed which is a good thing and since I'm just spotting brown she is not too concerned right now.  They took some bloodwork and I need to go back in a few days to get more done to see if my levels rise.  If they do, it's a good thing.

It seems my doctor isn't too worried so I feel a bit more at ease than I did yesterday.  I will wait to see what happens in the next few weeks before I get too excited ;) 

Thank you ladies for all your kind words, thoughts and prayers.  It's so appreciated and makes me feel so much better knowing I have you ladies to "talk" to  :)  Thank you again and I will update you soon as I get more word on my progress.

Re: Doctor appointment follow up.

  • oh good!!!  If you're only 4 weeks, then it's even more likely it's implantation spotting - hopefully baby (okay, fertilized egg) is burrowing deep in there to stick! 

    what a relief.  will continue to send positive thoughts - and I expect to see those levels rise!

  • so relieved for you. definitely sounds like it is just implantation spotting! sending doubling vibes for your beta/bloodwork :) keep us posted
  • Maybe that also explains your lack of symptoms because you are SO early still, which is a good thing. I did betas and as long as your levels double, you should be good to go... then another u/s after you are at least 6-8 weeks so you can see the little heartbeat. Like the ladies said, the spotting could just mean babes is digging a nice cozy spot in there :)

    On a side note, I've checked on here a couple of times to see your update. Glad to see you posted and things are good. Keeping you in my thoughts!  

  • Oh, good!!!  I read your earlier post, but didn't get a chance to respond yet.

    Sounds like implantation spotting to me......stick, baby, stick!!!

  • Glad to hear the appt went well!  My doctor told me that as long as I wasn't having bright red bleeding with cramping, not to worry too much.  I also remember having cramping and twinges down there.  There's a lot happening with all your lady parts right now!  Sending tons of sticky dust your way....

  • Thank you ladies for all your support, well wishes and most importantly sticky vibes :)  Your encouragement and support are always so appreciated.  I'm so thankful to be a HI Nestie/Bumpie - it really is the best board :)
