Emotional Roller coaster
I just gave birth April 16, 2019. My last menstrual cycle was June 9th. I had a blood test done July 12th and Pregnancy was ruled out. I took a hpt week after that and still never got a period. I finally got a bfp on July 31st. I was shocked to be pregnant again so soon, but also happy. Got my first ultrasound on August 6th plus a quantum hcg test. The doctors couldn’t find anything on the ultrasound and my hcg level was 250. He feared that I have an ectopic pregnancy and wanted to check my hcg again two days later. The hcg double so he suggested that I may indeed have a normal pregnancy. It just maybe very early on. I went to bed with bad period like cramps and woke up to some light bleeding. The cramps are only on my left side. I immediately came to the ER. The ER staff was basically clueless and told me that I am miscarrying and also have a tubal pregnancy. My ob doctor came to examine me at the ER. He reviewed my hcg levels and the ultrasound. My hcg level was 5200. But the ultrasound showed a barely visible gestational sac. He wanted me to give in to exploratory surgery and I refuse. And he said he was almost certain the baby wouldn’t make it with hcg levels that high and not a clearly visible gestational sac. I’m devastated. But I don’t want to give up hope. I go back Wednesday to his office for another ultrasound scan.
