One week ago

One week ago today I was still pregnant. I was just returning from a fabulous cruise and I was ready to jump back into work feet first. Tonight I am wrapped in a blanket and fearful of leaving the house. It is safe here.

Tomorrow I have to return to work. Although I am sure my office mates are handling things wonderfully in my absence, I still need to be there. Otherwise, I may fall so deeply into my own wounds that I never heal.

Still the blood comes, serving as a constant reminder of what we have lost and how we continue to suffer. The tears continue in vain to cleanse the dark spot the has appeared on my soul. There are not words to communicate my grief.

Pray for my family and pray for me,

Theresa

Sad update

I am sad to report we miscarried the pregnancy on Monday. We just got the call today that does indeed indicate the numbers are declining. The good news is we still have 5 frozen embryos and we can try again when we are ready. We are so lucky to be surrounded by so many people who love and support us.

Back from vacation

We are back from vacation! We spent much time relaxing and taking it easy. I have been SO Tired, I believe I slept at least 14 hour a day on the cruise. I only got nauseated a couple of time. Once was after an especially rough tender ride in Cabo San Lucas, so all and all not too bad at all.


I will check in with the MD via phone tomorrow and I am scheduled for an ultrasound on Friday.

I will let you know how things go!

Email from my 8 year old niece!

153

The magic number was 100 and we are well passed it! Hooray!!

Thanks to all who were sending good wishes!

We are so excited! Hooray!

Official Beta Today

If the beta today is 100, we will be on our way. As you may remember in the last cycle, we had a positive beta that failed to double every 2 days as expected. Since Mondays beta was 50, it is expected that today we should be somewhere around 100.

I will post when I hear! We are so nervous and excited. It is hard to let yourself get excited when you know at any minute the rug can be swept out from under your feet, but today is a huge hurdle to pass on our way to winning the race.

Continue to pray and keep the good thoughts coming!
