Exhausted

The clinic faxed in a requisition for a blood test today.  I feel like crap - totally exhausted.  The bleeding has turned into full-blown AF.  I went to visit a friend after the test and all I could do was lay on her couch and try not to fall asleep.  I'm great company.  It feels like my uterus is going to fall out.

I have to call the clinic tomorrow, and then wait for them to call me, in order to get the results.  I HATE not being able to speak to an actual person when I call.

Oh, no!

Ahhhhh, now I'm bleeding!  WTF?  Very, very dark, then bright red, then very, very dark.  Am I having a period?  What was with the positive pregnancy test the other day?

I've called the fertility clinic and now I just have to wait for someone to call me back.

THIS SUCKS.

Celebrating too early?

So I went out for dinner tonight with a few friends from work.  It was really nice to celebrate my BFP.  But after dinner I felt really full, like I'd eaten too much, but I hadn't.  Then I got a mild menstral-like cramp that would not go away.  At around 10 pm I went to the bathroom and felt a lot of pressure and bloating.  There was a small mass of tissue in the toilet.


Did I just have a miscarriage?  Is this a 'chemical pregnancy'?  Did I do something wrong?

Feeling very alone right now.

Your due date is...

I called the clinic to let them know about my BFP.  I was wondering if I needed a blood test to confirm.  I had read online about people getting their 'beta' numbers every couple of days.  If they double, it's a sign of a healthy pregnancy.  The clinic said that it wasn't necessary, and that the home pregnancy test is completely reliable!

They basically said, "Congratulations!  If the home pregnancy test is positive, then you're pregnant!  You can now contact your family doctor.  Your due date is May 12th. If you need our help again, just give us a call."

I then inquired about my other two 'units' of liquid gold and they told me I had already paid a storage fee for a certain amount of time.  The lab will call me when another payment is due.  I want to make sure I have those units---just in case!

BIG FAT PREGNANCY!!!

 

  

 

AF, where are you?

So AF should have arrived by today or yesterday...but she hasn't!!!  I've bought two types of tests: one from the dollar store for $1.25, and a double pack from the drug store for $14.00.  I wonder if the inflated price is worth it??  I'll find out tomorrow morning!

Some things are irresistable!

I know I shouldn't be buying baby stuff, but when you find something so CUTE and so gender neutral, well, you just have to pounce!

The matching fleece blanket had to come home with me as well.

Aren't my flowers pretty?
