Our Journey Part 7 : Success, Setbacks and Hope!
Hey girls!
Here's the continuation of our thread.
Some of us have had success, some of us have had setbacks, and some of us are still walking the path of TTC, but we are all in this together!
Good Luck to all!

My Dr's office is still waiting for the beta results and for the Dr to sign the requesition. I'll call them again at 4pm. I hope to get the ultrasound either tomorrow or Thursday. My best case scenario would be a blighted ovum that was just too small to see on the first ultrasound. The worst case a molar pregnancy. From what I've read, it seems that a molar should have been able to be seen by that 6 week ultrasound, so I'm hoping because they didn't see anything like that, that it's something else. At any rate, I'm sure it's nothing viable, because my hcg result on Friday was only 388. There is no way I'm pg again and that level at 8 weeks since my lmp would be way too low for a second embryo to survive.
In the meantime at at a walk in clinic for the cough I've had for more than a month now. It's starting to hurt and keep me up at night. I'm just falling apart!!
I'll keep you guys posted when I know more.

Sorry I have missed so much. Have been super busy organizing stuff in the house before I get too big.
Melissa- I absolutely hate that you have to go through this :(. You are definitely doing the right thing in following your instinct. I will pray for you. Part of me also wishes for a miracle so so badly. I hope that they can figure it out very soon. You are going in for the ultrasound this coming Thursday right? Big hugs Lis.
Jessh- So proud of you! Wow! That takes a lot of mental strength! Woohoo! Getting new workout clothes would always pump me up too! You go girl!

This mornings test was slightly lighter, so I'm happy about that.
I got diagnosed with bronchitis yesterday and started on a steroid and an antibiotic, but my Dr. said that they should have no affect on the hcg level at all. I wonder if I had any kind of tissue getting infected in my uterus, if that would have an affect on the numbers and the antibiotics are helping to clear that infection too?
Another curiosity is that I had a huge amount of EWCM this morning, and last night and this morning I even kind of felt cramping like I was about to O. I didn't think it was possible to O while you still had a fairly significant amount of hcg is your system.
My body confuses the hell out of me sometimes, lol!
I guess it will all be clear tomorrow.
Hope everyone has a great day!
