I love my DR!

Well, I've been really happy with my DR's office because I feel like they are really taking this pg seriously. I started getting my hcg levels checked since the day I told them I was pg, and even though they've been doubling, they still want me to have an u/s. But today I just felt even more comforted.

My DR called with my latest hcg results--they went from 263 to 550, from Monday to Thursday. Well, I was concerned b/c while they doubled, they weren't as high as I had hoped. So, after I explained my concerns to DR, he is sending me in tomorrow and Monday for more hcg tests, just to make sure they are doubing. My u/s is st for Tuesday at 9 a.m. DH will be with me for this one, thank goodness. Being alone at my only u/s in June was devastating.

I just feel so good that my DR is taking care of me--on the May expecting board, there are some woman whose DR's don't seem to take them seriously, even after their losses. I feel very lucky. Just thought I'd share.

Peace and love,
Jenny

I am very happy that you found a doctor you are comfortable with ... it seems that doctor's can make or break an already fragile PAL mind!

Jenny,

I am so glad you love your doctor. I think it really makes a difference to find someone who understand what you are going through and is willing to do whatever it takes to ease your mind. Yeah for this doctor!!
