My sept baby was ectopic đ
Yesterday I went in for my 1st ultra sound. The tech kept moving the probe around I saw the empty uterus (this is my second pregnancy so I knew what I was looking for). I told her there is nothing there, she wouldnât say anything. She moved to the sides I said âyour checking for ectopic arenât you?â She looked at me and nodded and said âyour a smart girlâ.
This pregnancy never felt ârightâ. I tested and saw a faint positive a week before period was due. But, I started bleeding the day my period was due pretty heavily. I texted the nurse and she asked questions about the color etc. said it may be implantation (thought this was weird bc of the heaviness) it was about three days long and got lighter and lighter to where I was wearing a panty liner and went away. I took a test the day after because I thought it was so not a normal period for me.. way more positive! I googled like crazy about my kind of bleeding and searched this site like crazy and discovered ectopic. I brought this up to my nurse she told me to stop googling I will see the worst. They didnât think I was as far along as I thought. What?? I am peeing on sticks like crazy for 14 months- I know when Iâm ovulating! I knew it wasnât during the tww but whatever Iâm no professional.
Went in for a blood test levels were doubling like they should. Spotted on and off, was taking progesterone then another blood test- levels still going up. At this point I felt a tad better but still felt something may be off. On the way to the ultrasound I brought my bf we were excited but I told him âI canât wait to see it so I can breatheâ. He knew I knew something wasnât right.
So fast forward to today I went to the hospital to get the methotrexate injection which makes the baby absorb into my body đ˘ I have to go next week twice to check my hcg to make sure itâs dropping. And once to see my dr. I have to wait three months to ttc again. I know you ladies know that will feel like eternity. I have to do the dye test in my tubes to see if they are blocked. Then I can start trying again. So crazy we just went to get the due date and see our baby on the screen đ. I wish all of you and your sept babies the happiest and healthiest pregnancies. It wasnât my time but I will bless my daughter with a sibling soon I feel it in my gut, and Iâm pretty keen on what my gut tells me! Sorry my story is all over the place Iâm a little loopy in bed.
