Went to the hospital today for bleeding and cramping. So I got out at like 5. I am going through a 'threatened miscarriage'. I have a 50/50 chance of keeping or loosing the baby. They did an internal and external ultrasound. They say I'm probably about 5 weeks along but the sac is small. They could not detect a heartbeat yet. That could be because it doesn't have one, or it might be too early. I have to go to the lab tomorrow for more blood tests, so it will kinda be the moment of truth. Right now I'm just taking it easy, but it's hard to do since we are moving this weekend. Max won't let me do anything though, so it's gonna be tough to do.
In two weeks I have a follow up with a new OB who specialized in fertility issues and difficult pregnancies. So she will be my OB assuming that I don't lose the baby completely in the next couple of days. They say I should know one way or another in two days.
They loaded me up with fluids and told me to take it easy tomorrow. Aside from that, not much anyone can do but wait.
Anyhoo... sorry to vent on here... just didn't know where else to do it...
