A little bit of good news

I went to pick up the official report from mondays ultrasound today. and it isn't as bad as the silly sonographer made out. Turns out bub was 8wk5days not 8&3 like she said. bub is 20.2mm long. this means we now only have a descrepency of one day from the first scan where bub was 4 days behind to now at 5 days behind. I am not so petrified that everything is on the way out now. There is hope and a lot of prayers.
Silly sonographers like her cause a lot of unnecessary worry. but at least i should sleep soundly tonight.

U/S #2 the good and the bad

I'll start with the good first: bub still has a heartbeat 176 which is good, there is no blood in my uterus which is good and my progesterone level yesterday was 92 up from 74 which is good.
and now to the not so good bub is further behind in growth. at the first scan at 7wk 5 days bub was 7wk 1 day 4 days behind. yesterday at 9wks 3 days bub was only 8wks 3 days a full week behind.  and this has me scared stiff and the actual number is just scary my second angel stopped at growing at  8 wks 3days. I really want to keep this baby. next ultra sound is the 14th july and i'm counting down the microseconds praying really hard  that bub is growing.

Progesterone today 74 YAY!!! its going up again. i am very relieved. cant wait to see bub again on monday my fingers and toes are crossed that it still has a heartbeat. I looked up foods that are high in progesterone and eggs and tumuric have a bit. so i have been eating curried egg for lunch all week. I'll turn in to a curried egg before too long.

The ultrasound went well. bub has a heartbeat of 120bpm. it is measuring 4 days behind dates which is concerning me a little.  Betas today were greater than 225,000 and progesterone was 66. the progesterone has me worried as on last tues it was 75. i have more bloods on thurs. if it drops below 60 i start the progesterone pessaries. and my doc tells me the danger zone is below 30. I have another scan on monday and i'm counting the seconds. both my angels hit trouble in week 8 and i am scared stiff this week.

Beta's today were 124,000 and progesterone is 75 it is finally starting to go up instead of down yay! I have my first ultrasound tomorrow. Tomorrow is also the one year mark since my first miscarriage. so i have lots of mixed emotions about tomorrow. My doc is also cranky that i haven't booked in to the hospital to have the baby. It sounds silly but i'm scared i'll jinx it. and cancelling the appointments with the midwives after my miscarriages was one of the hardest things i had to do.So i have been putting it off. I really hpoe i get to see a good heartbeat tomorrow.
        On other things this week has been a rather sad one A good friend of ours lost their battle with cancer this week. So we are taking a 5 hour trip tomorrow to attend the funeral on thurs. Young people's funerals are always so Sad. I will be glad to see some of our old friends, but i would far rather be meeting them on happeir circumstances.

Beta's today are 34454 and progesterone is 72 which has got me a little freaked as it is still going down. my doc is happy with anything above 40. but all i can see is the numbers going down first it was 91,89,83and now 72. i really don't want this trend to continue. I am due another set of bloods on next tues and then a scan on wed. and i see my doc on wed too. i really want to keep this baby.  Prayers please everyone.
