Pregnant after a Loss

Shocked to be here...

... and tbh probably won't be here for long. But since I just had a mini freak out and it's not appropriate for me to be posting on ttcal right now, well, here I am.

As for the shocked - H and I had literally just decided to put ttc on hold while we focused on other life things for a while. We started tta with condoms after a normal period in the middle of December. Then I started spotting. After spotting for almost a week and a half I decided I was going to call my ob at the end of this cycle if it kept up. For shits and giggles, I took a hpt to rule out pregnancy. Color me shocked when it came back positive.
Of course, that day the bleeding picked up so H and I headed to the hospital after I got off of work. But by then the bleeding had stopped for all intents and purposes, I wasn't experiencing cramps, and I was staring down a 7-8 hour wait just for them to take my blood. I had bleeding on my last mc and know the drill pretty well since I went to the er 3 times in a week. I decided to leave and just call my doctor today.
Of course, upon calling my doctor, he's off on vacation until tomorrow *facepalm*

Idk, I don't have much hope and can't seem to rally myself to it considering that it seems to be following the same trend as last time. I know that's a defeatist attitude, and I apologize for it. Just, can I hang out here while I'm stuck in limbo? I'd really appreciate it.

Re: Shocked to be here...

  • Welcome and congrats!  I have everything crossed for you!!  Hopefully your doctor can run beta tests and/or ultrasound (depending on how many weeks it would make you?), and you can get some good news to help ease your worries.  "Limbo" is such a hard place to be- we're here for you!!!!

  • @snedge no, I didn't. All they had me do is pee in a cup and then I sat in the waiting room for 3 hours. At that point it was 9:30, I was getting exhausted, and we heard a man say he'd been there since 4:30 and a family said they'd been there since 2:30, and no one had even gotten to the back yet. Decided to take our chances, though if I had known that my doctor was in holiday I would have stuck it out

  • Just heard back from the doctors office - since I haven't technically missed a period yet, it's too early for them to bring me in for testing :-/ oh well, just another week and if it gets worse again I can always go back to the hospital. And that way if we're going to see something on ultrasound we'll probably see it. Thank you all for keeping me in your thoughts. I appreciate it ♥
