I called the advice nurse yesterday and explained the events of the weekend and she wanted me to come in to see my OB same day. My sweet friend who recently had a loss offered to come with me and watch DS while I was in there.
She explained that with my bleeding it was likely that I was having a MC but they would do an ultrasound and blood test to check. She did an ultrasound and confirmed it was empty. Then she called a couple hours later and the blood test was basically negative.
So none of that was news to me and I'm glad I went, but ugh. Hearing her talk about it in "uncertain terms" was so painful for me. There was the tiniest part of me as soon as I made the appointment that was like.. "Oh maybe I jumped the gun...maybe there's an explanation..." even though I was very sure what was happening.
What a rollercoaster of a week. It still feels very raw that there were a couple of times yesterday that I forgot for a split second that I wasn't pregnant anymore.
My OB told me my period should arrive in 4 to 6 weeks and that we should wait one cycle before trying again. That puts our best case scenario as pregnant with a December due date. Would you try for a December baby? I've always kind of thought Decembers birthdays are the worst. (For the kids that have them) But I also don't want to wait.
(Ps. Sorry if I'm being a PW but only a couple people IRL even know what's been going on with me this week.)
