Let us begin by going back to the wonderful day I peed on that stick, May 3rd, 2009. Yep, it was positive (all 3 times) and we were ecstatic!!! For those who don't know us well, by this point we had already been blessed with a son...Dylan Kade (10), a daughter...Emily Klaire (4) and also had a first-trimester miscarriage in February 2008 & now, after 14 months of "trying"...the good Lord had blessed us once again.
And so our new journey began. The new pregnancy started out very rocky & worrisome from the get go. I sought comfort in my OB/GYN (Dr.Elias), one of my best friends (Laurie), & several of my family members and co-workers. My HCG levels were drawn quite frequently showing several inconsistencies from the "norm" & our early ultrasounds showed only a single empty gestational sac, grant it we had our first ultrasound at a mere 5 & 1/2 weeks, lol!
As the days went by and the worries grew, my HCG levels continued to increase fairly abnormally without any signs of fetal development within the one low-lying gestational sac. At this point my OB/GYN began to warn me of other possible outcomes noting the possibilities of a blighted ovum or an ectopic pregnancy.
To be continued....
