My Life This Week

Thursday: Spotting-Dr. Visit said embryonic sac is irregular and will miscarry. Get blood drawn for HCG levels.

Friday: HCG levels are at 89,000. Really high-Come in Saturday to make sure they go down.

Saturday: Take HCG Levels again

Sunday: Results 100,600.

Monday: Dr. Calls and says come in asap. Could be ectopic or molar. Went in and found embryonic sac in tact but no baby. Dr. orders a more in depth ultrasound.

Wednesday: Ultrasound shows a perfectly healthy baby, heartbeat and everything. Nothing short of a miracle. God surely has a sense of humor....but not all that funny for an emotional, nauseous, pregnant woman!!! I'm due October 25th.

Pregnancy Update
Had another ultrasound today and something is growing but according to the hormone levels, it's too small. Dr. said it's either an "abnormal pregnancy" or Twins. Yikes. I don't know which is worse. I have a more intense ultrasound on Wednesday. I should have the results then. What an emotional rollercoaster!!!

Aiden got his first hair cut. It's tradition for Juliane (Joe's Godmother) to do the honors, so we headed to Redwood City on Thursday. He wasn't cooperating all that well but it got done and he looks like a little boy now.

Aiden's got a new porch to play on and that's all he wants to do. Joe finished the railing on Friday and Aiden spent most of Saturday out there opening and closing the screen door, looking at the birds and running away from Lexi.
Aiden has taken a liking to a Cabbage Patch doll from Noni and he pretends to feed him. We thought it would come in handy since we recently found out I was expecting, but after a bad Dr. appointment on Thursday, we were told I would miscarry. Since then my hormone levels have still been going up so we're just waiting for a Dr. to tell us what's going on. We'll keep you all posted.
