OK so I just got back from the docs. Yesturday I had bad spotting and cramping and I was so convinced that it was gone I called everyone who knew and told them I lost another... So today Had the sono to confirm the loss get a referral to a fertility specialist etc etc... and there was a heart beat. a strong normal 138 hb and the baby is at 6 week 6 days right on from last friday. I was so stunned that I guess all the blood drained out of my head and the nurse offered to get me wheelchair. I was convined I had lost this one too. They did go ahead and get another hcg progesterone draw, some of my symptoms have eased up. (not my hunger however ;) ) So doc said that next week will be the deciding sono- if there is a good HB chance of mc goes down to 2% like everyone else. I want to be happy so bad but I just can't. I think I will technically be insaine by the time I get out of this horrible first trimester. thanks for letting me get this off my chest. Lori

Lori, I'm so happy that you got this wonderful news. I have everything crossed that next weeks sono and bloodwork comes back A.O.K! You can call back all your friends and family and say "April Fools"!

GL with the rest of the insane 1st trimester.
