"I'm bleeding"

Yesterday I went to the GP and got my referral for my OB and was all excited. Then this morning I woke up and I was spotting. I was devastated and not feeling very hopeful at all.

I rang the GP and got an emergency appointment. The GP did an internal and said that the cervix was closed which was good and then ordered a blood test and ultrasound. Then I was ordered home for bedrest.

The blood test came back at 25,000 which is good for 5-6 weeks. Cory came with me for the ultrasound and while not showing much except a sac, it ruled out an ectopic pregnancy bleed. I have to repeat these tests in a week for a comparison, however there was nothing abnormal in these ones.

Eeeyup - that'd be a positive!

Somewhat more conclusive result on the second test!

Hmmm...

Well I had a bit of spotting on Friday 13th which I thought was my normal cycle but the it stopped which was a bit strange....

So when we got back to Melbourne and went shopping on the Sunday I picked up a double pregnancy test kit from the supermarket. It said to do the test 1st thing in the morning so I waited until Monday morning (my 1st day back at work) and did the test.

I got a very faint positive so I wasn't totally convinced. I took the advice on the pack that said to wait 3 days and do a second test.

Thailand

So, it was all going to start in Thailand. That's when the rubber- based protection would go out the window, and we would start trying to conceive.
