Terrified

Shantia • 25 Mommy of 👼 Currently expecting a 🌈

This is long but bear with me please....

So last night I had a bit of spotting and cramps (5w1d) and I freaked out, I had a miscarriage with our first in May 2018 so every little thing now is freaking me out. Rush to the ER they give me the ultrasound and then come back in the room and tell me. That my hcg levels were basically 5000, but they didn't see anything in my uterus. I may have had a chemical or an ectopic pregnancy.

Majorly freaking now crying my eyes out that my lil bean didn't stick this time either. I felt like a failure.

Right after I asked to be discharged, the UT comes back in my room and says the radiologist wants to see a live Scan. So back to ultrasound I go, they're thinking aloud and they say they think they see signs of gestation. ( Talking to each other not me, but I'm right there) so they take me back to my room and tell me we think it's ectopic we're not 100% sure. To be sure, we can do a diagnostic surgery a small incision in my belly button just to check it and see.

I say no way. Never had surgery and I'm not so sure about it. So the sent my scans to the hospital downtown to a radiologist which specializes in early pregnancy ultrasounds and discharged me.

Got a call this afternoon from the hospital and the radiologist is very confident that I have a single pregnancy in my uterus and my lil bean is just fine. I have never been so happy
