What a crazy week it has been! Last Monday I went for a small walk and noticed I had started spotting. It didn't really phase me because I thought it was just normal pregnancy symptoms. I decided to walk home just to be safe. By the time I had gotten home it had started to get heavy and I thought for sure I was having a miscarriage. I did not think this would happen and I was so upset. I called Alex, who was on his way home after another one of our weekends, and told him that I was pretty sure that was what was going on.
Alex came back and we went to the emergency room. They took some blood to test my HCG levels and did an ultrasound. There was a yolk sac and that seemed to be a good sign bu that was it. My HCG levels were right on target so they told me to wait a few days and test them again at my doctor's office. I played the waiting game to see what would happen and by Thursday which was Alex's birthday I decided I needed to get my HCG levels checked to see what was going on, so I did. What an awesome birthday gift... NOT! We did not receive the results until today and I had basically prepared myself for the worst. When my doctor called me she told me that my HCG levels were still going up and that I was not miscarrying. I was so happy and hearing that was so unexpected.
I have my first appointment on July 7th. I can't wait!
