Dr Visit and SJ

This morning I had an ultrasound and blood work to check on the miscarriage process. The good news is that I have passed the sac, however there is still a tissue clot that needs to go. The dr prescribed me another dose of the Mis.oprosal...UGH. At least it is only one more dose. So tonight, I guess I have date with my bed. My HCG is dropping and is now at 1687. I never thought I would be relieved to have a declining beta. I go back for another check on the 13th and if there is still tissue, I will need the D&C so fingers crossed, I pass this sucker and soon.

A. and I had our first appointment with SJ today. I was both anxious and excited as we have been making real progress with our nightly talks this week. Our one hour appointment turned into two and half and I really feel that we both were able to speak our minds and get some stuff off our chests. There were a few things that we both were doing that made the other upset and now that it is out in the open, hopefully this won't happen anymore. We made a commitment to each other that for the summer we are going to dedicate one weeknight a week for date night. We were both really excited about this idea and look forward to our first date night.

I am feeling much better about our situation and I think A. is too.

P.S. I forgot to mention in my 7 things about me that I am a HUGE Edward fan on pages and Jacob fan on the screen!

  1. im so glad that your BETA is dropping. how sad, but i am. i hope to never say that to you again, my friend. i am glad you and A are talking and planning. communication is so hard for T and me sometimes too. SO HARD, like bang your head against the door jam until it bleeds hard.

    I COULD NOT AGREE MORE WITH YOU ABOUT EDWARD/JACOB! THE WAY HE LOVES HER DOESN'T COME THROUGH AS STRONG ON SCREEN. OMG IM SUCH A DORK.

  3. Awesome news R...really really happy u and A got a lot off your chests. I really hope this will improve things. Sometimes I think we get so caught up in IF we forget to live life. But easier said than done...know that from experience! But just keep fightin'...you're doing amazing. Sure hope this last dose will do the trick...

    Later...

  4. So glad things are going better mentally and hope things move quickly physically. It is so easy to get mad at the other person when going through this whole ordeal. Hope you both have a great belated anniversary plan coming up. And thanks for still letting me post anonymously - I wish more people would allow me to post on theirs too.
