Oh, February..

So I'm ready to get off of this emotional rollercoaster. First Annie and her brain issues/therapy, then happiness when we find out there's nothing wrong with her brain. After that there is the pregnancy. I thought that was a huge yay, until yesterday..

It was just a horrible day, let's put it that way. I went to the hospital because I was having 'issues', got some blood taken which showed that my pregnancy hormones were really low- meaning I am not as far along as I thought I was, or I'm having a miscarriage. Today I went back to find out that I'm probably, most definitely having a miscarriage. How sad is that? I go back tomorrow to get more blood drawn to see where my hormone levels are, and the doctor said most likely they will be even lower, but there still is a slight chance that they could double and this whole thing was something different. She doubts it. I wish there was something I could do, like take an 'anti-miscarriage' pill or something. Unfortunately if there is a miscarriage, it usually means the baby wasn't healthy enough to survive anyway. So how do I tell people?

At least I was knowingly pregnant for 8 whole days. I wouldn't trade those 8 days for anything.

I hope I don't end up in the hospital over this. I have Von Willebrand's Disease, so it worries me a little with all the blood loss. My doctor told me to have Henry take me out for a big steak tonight to get my iron up. Not sure I'm up for going out, or cooking. I had Ramen Noodles and baked beans. They both had 10% DV of iron, I'm set, right? Oh, and 2 really delicious chocolate cupcakes. I may not ever like chocolate after this whole thing is over. Who knows. We will not dwell on it :)





IF GOD BRINGS YOU TO IT, HE WILL BRING YOU THROUGH IT
