Hey ladies, same HH but the app was being stupid and wouldn't let me use my screen name!
So yesterday I reported to the clinic for a blood test and commented to the nurse that I was having some pain and fullness in my abdomen. It was on the opposite side from the ectopic so we both thought I strained a muscle or something, but she and the doctor decided an ultrasound was prudent.
Sadly, they found a clear and strong heartbeat
So while the second dose of MTX was working (bean had shrunk), I ended up having surgery yesterday and they had to take the tube with it.
Other than not being able to pee for almost six hours post catheter, I'm doing fine physically. I'm actually surprised at how good I feel considering.
Emotionally I'm holding it together, though DH is having a rough time of it. Neither of us really want to talk about it, even though I know we should, but we're both devastated beyond measure.
Thank you again for your support and love. I know we don't really know each other but you've been such a help over these past few weeks. I likely won't participate in the group once this thread dies down, so I just want to wish you all a happy and healthy nine months.
I'm so sorry that you're dealing with this and wish you a quick physical recovery and a slow and steady emotional recovery. Be prepared for a lot of ups and downs as your hormone levels regulate and you work through your emotions, and lean on your support system when you need to. Again, I'm so sorry for your loss and the added difficulty that you're experiencing.
I'm so sorry to hear what you have been through. I hope your physical recovery continues to be quick and your emotional recovery takes as much time as you need. Thank you for sharing your story.

I'm so sorry that you've had to go through this. The emotional roller coaster post-loss is not easy. And husbands' feelings don't always match up with yours. Does your husband have anyone to talk to about this other than you? I found that it was too difficult at times to deal with my husband's feelings after my loss. Not that I didn't support him, but I was in such a bad place myself that I needed him to have someone else to turn to.
Big hugs to you and your husband. This is awful and no one should ever have to go through it.
Oh Hudsonhawk, I'm so sorry. All my love to your and your H - this is so hard. It's okay not to talk about it right now - eventually, but you both need time and to physically and emotionally heal.

I am so sorry hudsonhawk. There is no right or wrong way to process your grief, so don't feel guilty for anything. Talk when you are ready to talk. Maybe YH can look into a grief counselor, talk therapy can be so powerful. I am sending so much love to you, I am so sorry you are going through this.
hudsonhawk I was really hoping the MX worked. I'm so sorry you are going through all of this. I will be praying for your physical and emotional recovery. Sending lots of love your way. Give yourself and your DH as much time as needed to heal.
