it's not him, it's me!

Marie • ttc our first child!
Last Friday we had our first infertility appointment with the OB. Later that day, I told my SO that breasts have been so painful for the past two weeks and my stomach was bloated. He said, take a test and maybe its positive. I took three and all of them were positive!!!! I was so worried that something was wrong with one of us and that is why we had our infertility appointment on Friday, to get the ball rolling. Monday I had lab work to confirm pregnancy and my hcg was 12. That's not very high but I was told I was very early. Tuesday I had some mild cramping with some bloody discharge and Wednesday it was confirmed with more labs that I was starting to miscarry, as my HCG levels have dropped. Apparently my progesterone was 2.5 when it should have been between 12-15. Now, we are set up next Friday with a specialist to discuss hormone therapy...It's so sad and crazy how literally one day you both are smiling from ear to ear that you're finally going to be parents and the next you're crying in your husbands arms 😢
