I saw an OB yesterday and I was seriously hoping for some closure of some sort. Worse case scenario being that there is either an ectopic pregnancy going on or a miscarriage is for sure happening. Best case being that I'm worrying over nothing and all is well.
Well, they kept me waiting over an hour. After the fact the doc was very appologetic but still...
What an anxious hour that was. Then, finally, my name was called and I'm brought into a room and told to undress and wait for the doc. Oh, you know the only thing better than waiting in a Dr's office is waiting NAKED in a Dr's office. So I'm covered in a paper sheet from the waist down and I look across the room and see this posted on the wall:
...and I'm thinking the thing making me feel overwhelmed, anxious and very sad is this Dr's Office.
I have been bleeding for 6 days now and that of course I know this is not good. I brought in my blood work from last week and the doc told me about four times that my levels were way too low and she didn't hold out much hope for me. There was a silver lining in that the ultrasound showed a sac in the uterus, so an ectopic pregnancy was ruled out.
I went to their lab and had some more blood drawn and when the nurse asked me if I was doing okay I totally lost it right there in front of everybody. Poor gal didn't have any tissues or anything and I'm full on crying with snot and everything. Oh well.
You know when you've had one of those days when not even Nutella covered strawberries can fix things....well, luckily yesterday was NOT one of those days.
My hubby gave me some great advice that I'm taking to heart. I'm going to just live in my moment, and be happy that I'm pregnant and not worry until there is something substantially worrisome going on. For right now, I'm nauseous as can be and I couldn't be happier.
