Not so good news

My hcg came back from yesterday at nine thousand something, which isn't good, it should have been closer to 16,000ish. So I am waiting for the nurse to run it by my doctor and call me back with our next move. I can't describe how unfair it is to be completely nauseous and exhausted and knowing it's all for nothing. I had an appointment with my family doc today and told her all about the situation and my history so she ordered all sorts of labs just to see what might be going on.

4pm update: I now have an ultrasound scheduled for Monday morning, and a follow up appointment with an ARNP since my Dr. will be out of the office. The actual number was 9422.5, and the nurse was kind of half heartedly trying to be encouraging about it. But hope is pretty much slipping away from me at this point. It's going to be a long weekend.

Hey, sorry about the not so good news. I just have a minute but I wanted to say I'm sorry you're having to go through this. I know how it feels to really just want a baby and have things not be working out the way you want them to. I never had a miscarriage but it took us almost a year and a half to get pregnant. Not that that was the same, I just want you to know that I really feel for you and I'm thinking and praying for you.

Love -Lisa
