Hi All,
Just wanted to give an update on the post I made on Sunday:
http://pregnant.livejournal.com/17527408.html#commentsSunday night I started bleeding more and clotting. I knew it was not good news but I kept a positive attitude. On Monday I called the doctor at 8am and explained what was happening. At about 2:30pm they told me I would need an ultrasound on Tuesday. By that time the bleeding was bad and the clots were worse. There was still no cramping. I went this afternoon to the ultrasound and found out that I lost the baby. i had a feeling that this was what happened but it is still hard. Thank you all for the advice on Sunday. Here is to hoping in a few months time I will be able to say that I am pregnant again.
I will say my cycle was a bit wonky the month after. I'm usually very regular (set your calendar by me-regular) and I was tracking with charting... I ended up not ovulating until cycle day 41 (usually I ovulate around cd17-22). It was disconcerting to say the least but I ended up pregnant on that weird cycle, so it was worth the wait.
I'm sorry that you lost your baby :(
The kind words are so nice to hear. I think the hardest part for me is that a week after I found out I was pregnant this time, we found out that my sister would need brain surgery (again) to remove the rest of a tumor or else should would go into a coma. This was very very hard on me and I know my stress levels were very high. I told her before her surgery that I was pregnant and we were even looking at a new house. She pulled through the surgery but I have not told her yet about this loss. That will make this even harder because she was so excited.
