Limbo..

I feel like this is the one place I can really vet so I appologize about anyone who is tired of hearing about my problems.

Friday night and Early Satruday I had som pretty bad cramps and some blood,   Because I was only 5 1/2 weeks we were pretty sure that I had a MC.  I called the OB and she was ofcourse optimistic and level headed (annoying in this case) and wants me to come in tomorrow for an hCG test, and she will give me the results wednesday. 

So heres the problem, I HATE being in this position, not knowing not knowing if we did lose or if we still have, does this mean that If by some miracle I am still PG i will be some serious high risk situation?

I am sorry to vent and I seem like I have been complaining a lot more the last few days but I dont have anyone else other than the DH to complain to, and for some reason he just has this hunch that we still are.  

I hate limbo land... I dont even do the limbo that well.....  Wednesday cant get here quick enough.

It seems so strange to me that they would wait until Wed. Why would they not want you in today?

She was going to have me do the blood test today but shes not going to be in Tuesday, she said as long as I was not in a lot of pain that she wanted to just check me on Tuesday since she was going to be in on Wednesday to call and discuss the results with me. 

That is one of the things that is annoying me is she doesnt seem to be overly concerned with the bleeding (because it didnt go on for more than 12 hours) I personally have been freaked out about it.

I have had bleeding on two different occasions. But it was really light and no pain. Was it heavy or just light? I saw my baby's heartbeat last week. I hope all is well! You are in my thoughts and prayers!

i wouldnt say it was heavy (i never had to use a pad or a tampon) but it was enough that both DH and I were concerned.
The heart beat must have been a magical moment.  that is wonderful.
IF I am still PG we have an appointment for an ultrasound on the 18th

It's hard to not let all scenarios go through your head. So I understand the feeling of being in limbo and it being frustrating. I can tell you that bleeding does not always equal miscarriage. So try not to automatically think that. All you can do is wait for actual lab results, but I know that wait can be frustrating. Maybe talk your doc into to putting the labs through as "stat" and giving you the results quicker. If he can......

I really wish I could but my OB isnt going to be in till Wednesday so them getting the results earlier doesnt do any good because shes not there to call me on them... I am trying not to automatically assume MC, but between the low hCG levels and the cramping and the bleeding its hard not to go there.  If I didnt have you guys Id go crazy, DH is way more patient than I am.... Annoying men!

I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. The limbo must suck...but as others have said, bleeding doesn't automatically mean mc. Lets hope for the best. Try to stay busy (in an easy way) read a book maybe to take your mind off things until wed. Keep us posted. Shari

Hi there ... I wish I had some words of support, or something really helpfil to say, but I don't. I just wanted to say that I would keep you in my thoughts and prayers. Isn't there another doctor on call of your OB who you can go see? Someone who could act a little faster? I HATE waiting! Keep us posted ...

I hate waiting too unfortunetly there is no one else around the office, she is in an office alone so there isnt another doctor.
I have had some more slight dark red almost a brown bloody spotting today again nothing that you would use a tampoon or maxi for but still enough that I am still concerned, only a few cramps today.
