so scared

Things aren't looking so good and I'm unbelievably scared and can't stop crying. I went for ultrasound & bloodwork today. The results of the ultrasound were inconclusive (which I later found out should have been expected due to being so early), as the RE basically saw nothing except something which "may or may not be a gestational sac." So now, we have to wait again until Friday to see what happens. As if I haven't already been tortured enough, my hcg levels still went up according to the bloodwork today, but they didn't double nearly as well as they should have based on last week's doubling rate. A week ago, my level was 241 (quadrupled from original beta) and now it has just barely doubled in an entire week (560). That's just.not.good.

Please pray...
Matthew 6:25-34

Praying praying. So hard to not know what's going on. I'm sure this next few days will drag by slowly, I'll pray that you can keep your spirits up as you wait for Friday.

Hang on. Just hang on and ride this out. You can not change anything now and it is all out of your hands. The Lord's plan will prevail and HE IS MIGHTY. I am so sorry you are in this place of not knowing, of waiting and of being scared, but remember the HE is holding you in the palm of his hand.

I've been thinking about and praying for you and the baby(babies?) all day. When I first found out I was pregnant, I worried so much about whether the the pregnancy would last or not. I never thought I would be able to get pregnant, and who knew if I would every get pregnant again? I found a lot of peace in knowing that it was in God's hands. Whether the pregnancy lasted or not was just totally out of my control. It made me feel better, and it freed me from the self-blame game. Did I lift something too heavy? Did I bend over too much? Did I not eat enough? too much? That can drive you mad! I am praying for you and for God's mercy and grace, for you and your little one(s)!
