Friday, September 7th, 2012. 7weeks.
I woke up this morning feeling great.
Like, scary great.
I don’t know for sure if I’m psyching myself out here, but I’m about 80% certain that I woke up without any pregnancy symptoms today.
I’m not nauseated.
I’m not tired.
I’m not hungry or thirsty.
Even my breast tenderness has faded to a tolerable level when just a couple of days ago it was torturous.
I suspect that my HCG levels are dropping. I have no way of knowing if this is true, however, because Dr. K didn’t order blood work for me on Wednesday. I may pee on a stick tonight to see if the lines have lightened at all.
I’m starting to accept what is happening…
If I started to cramp and spot over the weekend, I wouldn’t be surprised in the least.
If, somehow, we get good news on Monday, I will be shocked.
If we get the bad news I expect, I’ll still be devastated, but a small part of me will be saying, “I told you so…”
This is such a shitty place to be.
I’m SO sorry Tracy. Will pray for you!

I’m so sorry, Tracy. 😦 I hope your appointment Monday brings good, surprising news, but if it doesn’t, know that you’ve got lots of people thinking about you and sending you virtual hugs.

Try to focus on the fact that you got pregnant. With all that you have gone through, that is HUGE. This may or may not be the nugget that is intended for you and Mike, but there is a nugget for you. Sending a ton of love up north.

You’re right — totally shitty and I’m sorry. So, so sorry. But I will not give up hope, not yet. And no matter what happens, you have all of us. I hope that is some small consolation. Holding you in my heart today. ~ hugs ~

This is such a hard place to be! I have been there twice! One time it didn’t work out and once time it did. ( I know the trying to conceive part is different) the wait is horrible! I’m praying hard for a good out come. On monday

I have been exactly here. Twice. And it’s more than anyone should have to go through. I’m sorry that you are stuck in limbo and I know how hard it is not to obsess over symptoms, or lack thereof. I wish there was something I could say to make the days go by more easily but I know there is not. Just take it easy and be kind to yourself

I hate that you are stuck waiting, that is the worst. Hoping for the best for you. No matter the outcome, allow yourself to have the emotions that come. Sometimes I think we get so good at holding it together in the face of everyone else’s happy announcements and such that we do feel we have the right to be angry, sad, or grieve. Praying for you.

Hey guys, thank you all for your supportive words.
I am so up and down with this whole thing that I just don’t know what to think from minute to minute. I’m stuck between trying to accept what might be happening and trying to have hope for what could still be growing…
It’s exhausting and frustrating and maddening. I’m doing my best to keep a brave face for everyone else, but I feel like crumbling half the time. It’s going to be a long weekend, but I am going to try to stay busy and pass the time till Monday.
Thank you all again, so much. Having you in my corner really does help!! 🙂
