Hi!
It was a long night but I got up at 7 am...warmed up the suburban and went to the hospital for the second time this week to have a beta test. My little 2 yr old had the sickies and so I had to bathe her, change the sheets, wash the sheets, make the bed in the middle of the night. Why is it that her daddy can sleep through her sobs and stuff. He had no clue that she had been sick and I was up with her, as it lasted a few hours. Since I was still up at 5 am, I made his coffee as he was getting up for work then. The dork thought I just got home from bingo and the casino!!! (I actually got home at 11 pm, thank you!) Anyways, my little girl is ok. I think her daddy and big brother gave her a little bit too much pop, juice and cookies...all the stuff I don't like her to have. Well the juice is ok, but in moderation.
So, my hcg level is at 211 today. Not good. The fertility nurse says its either a chemical pregnancy or tissue still left from the miscarriage. Nevertheless I have been referred to my local ob to decide if a d & c needs to be done or a shot of Methotri.....something lol If I was local to the fertility clinic then they would have opted for the shot. I spoke with the local ob nurse and told her that I've had enough of the beta tests. I want it to be over. The lab insists on taking the blood from my right arm and its just sore. You can even see the marks from previous draws! I dont think I want the shot which will help to zero out the hcg because it means continue trips to the lab. Just want the d & c done so we can get on with our lives and begin a new transfer.
There are so many pros and cons of the d & c. At this point, I have still been bleeding on and off since the miscarriage...somedays more so then others...like its never going to end. Basically, as I have been saying, I have had enough...do the d & c. When I talked to my local OB on yesterday, he had stated that if the numbers didn't go down significantly that was an option.
So I have an appt to see him on Wed to discuss the next step. Sure looking forward to it!
BTW, I won at Bingo last night. Shannon and I decided to check out bingo at the casino (www.GrandCasinoMN.com) and what a blast! Of course we split the winnings and played the slots for a few hours! Can't beat a free night of Bingo and slots! Just love it! They have a non-smoking section too which is great...so I will be able to play there when I am preggo!!!
Well I got to run now. Have a great day!
Hugs,
A Surrogate Mom
