On Sunday, I went to the bathroom and found 2 small spots of pink on the TP after I wiped. Needless to say, especially after 3 losses, I flipped! Of course, Chris wasn't home. He was at work. I didn't want to unnecessarily worry him either....unless fully necessary. So, I wiped several more times throughout the day and even check internally with TP and found nothing---no more blood whether it be pink, red, or brown. I started to calm down, but I was still feeling paranoid--constantly checking my boobs, etc.
Monday morning, soon after the doctor's office opened, I called and left a message for my Ob's nurse to call me. She called fairly quick and I told her what happened. She was very understanding. She told me it was likely nothing, but to be on the safe side, Chris and I would have to forgo marital relations for a couple weeks. She would page the doctor and let her know in case she wanted me to do anything different.
Well, this morning the nurse called again and said that Dr. Quinn agreed with her, but we could run my hcG again if I wanted. I said yes, right away. Part of me was scared doing that because I liked the idea of living in blissful ignorance if something was wrong. However, I didn't want to be surprised like I was last time around and find out my baby died weeks after it happened. So....I went in for the bloodwork this morning.
I just got called back by the nurse again with the results. She seemed in a good mood, so I hoped that meant we had good news. We did!!! My hcG was 11,470!!! Awesome numbers for 6 weeks!! I'm so excited and happy! Yay baby! Yay God! Let's keep this baby cooking! :-)

Low #s
Well, I got my results back from yesterday and apparently the doc is a bit concerned about me having low numbers.
HcG--37
Progesterone--10.7
But, the doc didn't know I was only 10 dpo yesterday so I wonder if that makes a big difference. From all the research I've been able to do, I found out that my hcG is normal for 10 dpo. However, the progesterone number is a bit worrisome since it needs to be at least 10. The doc wants it at 15. I did just start the suppositories yesterday so hopefully that number goes up on Thursday. I'm also hoping my hcG more than doubles. Fingers are tightly crossed!!
