An update...it's all in the numbers!

Yesterday's experience at Annapolis Ob/Gyn was much different in that I was more resigned to my fate when I got there, knowing I wasn't going to hear any news while I was there...but I was wrong!!

After my bloodwork, the doctor who saw me on Tuesday came out for a chat. Mind you, I did NOT have an appointment, but she made time for me anyway! So far, this practice is setting the bar pretty high for "customer service"!

Anyway, I digress...like that's something new!

She (the doc) asked me how I was feeling, and I told her about struggling a bit with nausea, which she reminded me was a normal feeling. She also told me that they are not 100% convinced that what they saw was tubal. Something about the absence of free fluid or something like that. But I was still in a ... well, the numbers don't lie...kind of mood.

By the time I got home, Dr. A had called with my results, and told me that they are very pleased with how things are progressing!!! My number went up to about 2700, which is what they would expect with a normal pregnancy. Still, given last year's events, I am still to remain vigilant about symptoms of a possible problem, and I am now on the list to have another sonogram on Tuesday. Hopefully this time there will be something to see!

So...in a nutshell...more waiting. But I am not as anxious this time around.
