So this pregnancy has gone the way of the last…in that it didn’t stick.
I knew it was all heading south when, this morning, I started spotting. My immediate reaction was anger. I was so mad at my body and the situation. We have been trying so hard and doing everything right and I had been so good about not testing again and waiting for the bloods. This falling and then nothing just feels so cruel. Especially the second time in a row.
I went off and had my blood test anyway and the results confirmed what I felt was already taking place – my hCG had dropped to only 12.
The nurse at the clinic was lovely and talked through lots of stuff with me. She agrees with my approach for what’s next and that is to have the MRI and see if this patch of whatever it is, is whatever the Dr thinks it is. If so, it could be affecting the implantation and I really don’t see why we should throw money at more procedures if we are just going to keep getting this same result. We need to further refine things; investigate and then treat accordingly. She has also suggested considering genetic testing.
So that’s about it from me. I’m OK. I did just go and get my son out of his bed though and put him in mine. I feel I need him close tonight.

Man, I’m so bummed! It really felt good this time, I was so optimistic! And now I feel deflated!
And, I wasn’t even the one really going through this!! My heart breaks for you – and I’d love to convince you that I’m sure there is a reason why – but right now, I still want to grieve a little bit more.
Sending good energy your way! After a small break to process, I’m ready for the next step!
