Waiting for the phone to ring!

Just sitting here waiting for my doc office to let me know my levels from sat. The anxiety is making me sick. I am trying to prepare myself w/ a low(non doubled) number, but also think positive. Its not happening though...i m sooo scared. Funny thing, the more stressed I get the more pain I feel. Don't really need any advice, just needed to share w/ others who might know how i feel. I want them to call but one they do I know a little more, which might be harder....ugh!

Waiting for test results is the worst. I was told I'm a carrier for a birth defect called sma and I think the drs office got irritated with my callin to see if my results were in...they took the entire 2 weeks to get my bf's blood results back..but luckily everything was good/negative.

I've noticed that a lot of the time everything is okay..they just take extreme precautions when it comes to pregnancy/babies..which I am thankful for in the long run.

I would call too... The worrying is not good for you and the baby.
I know how you feel, I had a m/c last year... And I am now 6 weeks pregnant. I had my levels taken last week and its agony waiting to hear if they have doubled.
Just give them a call... I'm sure they understand. Keep us posted!

Call...i would!

So i called and the lab hasent even sent the results to doc yet! Errr! I know there are many other people in the world, but the fear of another eectopic and not being able to breathe at the thought of having this baby is mking me crazy, and a terrible mother/wife/person to everyone else. So preoccupied i'm not even sure i should be driving!

Our lab will let you go in person and pick the labs up. Are they finished?

Finally! I called dr 3 x's...got the fire lit. They called at 10 to 5. My hcg was 605 on thurs...went up to 2402 from sat. Soooo, they are sending me for an u/s tomorrow....want to see that baby is in uterus, not tube! A little relief...but still scared out of my mind about the nugget growin in the wrong place. Thx everyone for helping me not go insane!

cicelia

I meant nugget....that's what my hubby calls it, a nugget of a baby cuz its so tiny

Well keep us updated sweetie!!

michelet

I thought that the hcg levels doubling ruled out ectopic pregnancy?
Keep us posted! Praying for you! So glad your levels were good!

@michelet I sure hope so, but i know my doc wants to see on u/s to be sure. I will tell say i feel lots of relief tonight. Also my pain and cramping seems to be feeling better-maybe it was from the stress. Who knows. My other babies just appeared and grew, no problem. Maybe its age, I sure feel a lot older this time

@cicelia I know... I should have 4 kids with another on the way... My first pregnancy was vanishing twin with one surviving, my 2nd was fine except a preemie (3# 8 oz), 3rd resulted in a m/c, and so far this one has been good. It is scary to go through all this but I know that The Lord is in control and I've stressed a lot less
