My second beta test was today and the numbers more than doubled! So I'm still pregnant. I have one more on Monday just to be sure but it's looking positive so far.
I am starting to believe that I may really be pregnant. But I know there's still a bunch of denial going on as well.
I feel speechless and wordless as to how I'm feeling. So it's a short post for today, but a good one.
Dealing with the loss of a child is never easy, but it's even more difficult when you are an expat living far from home. Life will never be "normal" again and so now the challenge is to find my new normal. I am now back in the USA and the proud parent of two daughters, born using two different egg donors. "Frostina" and "Olea" are the loves of my life and I feel so grateful for the amazing women who donated their eggs and made my family possible.
Sending good thoughts your way! Have they said anything about multiples yet? (My first beta was high and subsequently doubled every 1.4 days...it was twins. I lost them at 14w2d, but those first weeks were so full of excitement after all the Hell of infertility leading up that.)
ReplyDeleteOh wow - I had to follow up my Rewind visit with a current post to see how you were travelling... and I find this! SO excited for you. Have all extremities crossed and sending you all the best wishes in the world.
