Just got the news on Monday evening that I ended up losing the baby. I
almost made it to 6 weeks I had very light spotting for the past
week. HCG was 126 last Wednesday, jumped up to 300 by Friday. On
Friday, the Dr. said she had no reason to believe I didn't have a viable
pregnancy as the numbers more than doubled, but wanted another hcg on
Monday to see when we could plan for an ultrasound. Monday evening she
called and hcg had taken a nose dive down to only 38. Now tonight I
took a pregnancy test and it was negative. It was a week of so many ups
and downs. This was my first pregnancy and we were so excited. We had
been trying for almost a year and were just getting ready to start with
fertility testing this month. We are so thankful to know that I am
able to get pregnant naturally and look forward to what the future holds
for our family.
I just want to say that after reading through some of the posts on this board, I am so sorry for all of your losses. I have had many friends experience loss and I know we just have to walk through it with the support of friends and family. I'll be thinking of and praying for each of you.
Re: :(
Many hugs to you. I can emotionally recall that moment after getting pregnant after many, many cycles of BFNs I was so elated and then to have it all come crashing down. I'm very thankful for the women on this board. Knowing you aren't the only one that has suffered can be comforting.
Take good care of yourself in the weeks to come. There will be alot of emotions, especially as your hormones adjust back and I suspect for all of us, the holiday season is going to make it even more challenging.
Visit us often but hopefully you won't have to stay long!
