BFP #3: 01/28/12, EDD: 09/23/12, MMC (BO), D&C 2/16/12 at 6.5 wks
BFP #4: 05/23/12, EDD: 01/31/12, Early MC at 5 wks
RPL Workup: + LPD (7DPO Prog = 7.8, Endometrial Bx = out of phase)
Elevated Alpha 2-glycoprotein IgA and antiphosphatidylserine IgM -->
Hematologist said not to worry and no need for treatment!
Thanks guys! Lots and lots of tears were shed over the weekend and this morning, but I've tried to keep up a brave face so that my boss *thinks* I'm enthusiastic about starting work LOL. I listened to some lively salsa music on the way to work this morning to cheer me up, and I've been doing my best to not dwell on things while at work (though the emotions have caught up to me at certain points and I will admit I've cried at my desk a couple of times). I had a picture of Emma set up right next to my computer screen but it was too hard to keep seeing her face, so I moved it behind me. Luckily the day has felt like it's been going by fast and I know I will be home with her soon.
I am a very sentimental person, so leaving her this morning was definitely one of the hardest things I've ever had to do. I would elaborate on what I was feeling, but it's just going to make me cry even more. Suffice to say, it was very rough, but I know that in the long run this is the best decision for our family. I know I am doing the right thing and my daughter is in great hands. I will still have all my afternoons/evenings and weekends to enjoy her. It's very hard to not feel like I'm missing out, and I miss her like CRAZY, but it will be okay!
Thanks for the encouragement Jackie, thanks for the fb message. xoxo!
I'm just reading this now, so I'm a little late...but I wanted to offer some encouragement and tell you that it does get better. Emma is in good hands.
And I agree, pumping at work SUCKS! Make sure you drink plenty of water and looking at pictures of Emma will help, too
Re: GL Jen on your first day back at work!
