emotional rollercoaster
This post is meant to serve as solidarity to other first tri moms who are riding the emotional rollercoaster! I was SURE that I had miscarried, because I had been bleeding consistently for a week and my HCG levels had dropped. I went in to the doc, after on call OB had confirmed the MC, to see if anything needed to be done for total mc. With all variables considered, my OB was tentative and wanted to do an US...only to see that an egg sac is still there! Horrifying to think that had it been another doc, miso pills may have been used and I could have aborted what may be a perfectly healthy pregnancy!
Bottom line is this...I'm still in no man's land, I could indeed be miscarrying, but I am at the moment still pregnant! Those of you having some bleeding, doubts, odd feelings, whatever...keep your head up.
A friend reminded me last night that this baby is NOT an accident. And although the outcome is unknown, remember the chance of mc is lower than we think.
Personally, I consider this worry a form of spiritual warfare. The enemy doesn't like joy, hope and life and will do anything in his power to trample on those things. This post is an encouragement to any other first tri moms dealing with that same thing, and a promise that I am praying for all of us to have beautiful, healthy babies at the conclusion of THIS pregnancy!!
God bless you all!
