Pregnant after a Loss

Called my doctor-blood work done!

I've been putting off calling my doctor since I found out that I'm pregnant again. I don't know why but just the thought of calling them scared the crap out of me.

I got the nurse who knows me and knows about my previous loss, and I cried pretty much the entire time....I think saying out loud to someone else "I'm pregnant" just freaked me out.

She asked me to come in as soon as I could for blood work. Luckily I was working from home so I got to go in this afternoon. She wanted to check to make sure that my levels were looking good for 4w 5d. She's going to get my results back to me tomorrow. But it didn't seem as though I would have to go back for more betas if things seemed to be on track.

She mentioned getting me in for an early u/s "if the number comes back on track" probably at about 6-7 weeks.

I also set up an OB appointment for June 5th....I should be 8.5 weeks by then.

So this is starting to feel real....I know I'll be on pins and needles all night and until I get a call back from the nurse tomorrow....but I'm trying to remain positive and relax as much as I can.

I just needed to get this all out of my head....sorry it got so long!
