t&p needed please.
Ok... so I came off bc a few months ago. We were trying without trying (no charts/temps/opks) and if it happened, it happened. On CD60, I tested, BFN. Tested again on CD68, BFN. On CD 73, (this past Monday) I started with mild cramps and knew af was on her way. Started spotting on Tuesday, still mild cramps, and it never turned into flow. I have a babysitter coming tomorrow so I could get out on the boat for the first time in a couple of years, so Chase and I went into town to get some snacks for the boat and the sitter. Something told me to get a test while I was out, because I have gotten queasy anytime I put food in my mouth. Didn't really believe it, just thought maybe my cycle was wonky as it usually is. No biggie. Until the line popped up.
So, I am pregnant! BUT, as usual, my body is trying to fail me. My OB is no longer an OB. My perinatologist is out of the office. I am spotting and freaking out because I can't see a Dr until Monday (I have an appt at 11) Wow. I have no one to talk to about this, Drew said he had his suspicions but didn't want to say anything.
Please say a prayer that I make it through the weekend somewhat sane. I am excited and terrified all at the same time. I know it will happen if it's meant to be, but.... I also now how my body deals with pregnancies. I don't produce progesterone, and I kind of need that.
No boating for me tomorrow. I have a sitter lined up. What the heck do I do now?
Re: t&p needed please.
Congrats. I hope this is a sticky baby for you.
I don't know if this is possible and I know you are in podunk but could you have the sitter come and then you can go to the nearest hospital in a city that is civilized and see if maybe they have give you a shot of progesterone (or whatever that you need)? I don't know if that is even possible, but it is a thought.
Even if you can't do that I would still have the sitter come and maybe just go relax somewhere.
Keep us posted. Praying for a sticky baby.
Thanks Heather. I actually thought of that and asked the dr's office when I called. They won't.
Drew just came home with flowers. I am signing off for a bit to go discuss some more with him
