Number 3

The miscarriage began the day that I was leaving for London. My flight was at 10 PM and I was paniced. It was so heavy and I had a window seat in the business section which meant I was going to have to climb over the other aisle passenger's bed. Not an easy task. I was very lucky to be traveling with a co-worker who was kind enough to swap his seat with mine that was right by the restrooms and on the aisle. That helped a ton. Otherwise, this mc was not as heavy and painful as my last one. So next step is have an u/s and make sure that all of the tissue is gone and numbers are returning to zero. I think I will just take pregnancy tests until the pee stick shows negative, then I will get the blood work done to confirm the HCG numbers are at or near zero. I am sure I will have to wait 2 to 3 months before beginning the next stim cycle.

After all of this sad stuff, I am now going to shift gears and fill out a survey that I got tagged with. Looks like fun. :)

    Mel....
    Glad to have you back. I'm so sorry the m/c had to happen when & where it did... or even at all. I think you POAS idea is a good one. No point in visiting the vampires any more often than necessary.

    Liked your tag items! Especially the towel with the car hair.

    Hugs

    It sounds like you are on the right track. I am sure you have your moments though and that is to be expected. I have been thinking about like crazy and hoping things started to progress for you. I concurr with POAS theory too. I hope you will not need any further intervention in regards to this pregnancy.
    Thanks for the update though.

    Check in and let us know if you're ok or not. Okay, stupid comment, I know you're not "OK" but at least let us know how you're doing.

    Hugs!
