I called and spoke to the triage nurse Mrs. S... she's another nurse that has been with me thru this since the beginning. I called because of some odd sharp pains, not cramps and she said I needed to go in for the bloodwork we didn't do yesterday. So hit the ground running to get there and have it done, it'll be back tomorrow am Mr.C said. I finally had a chance to meet Mrs.S and it was emotional, she asked how it's all going because I had gotten choked up when I saw her... She let me know everything is normal that I'm feeling right now and the absense of bleeding well it should actually start soon. Said to call if anything seems odd, any ?'s and to get the results from the betas today in the am tomorrow.

I feel, emotionally, a little better... just gave it to God, it's all in His hands from the get go. We'll still have our chance to TTC soon, just have to wait until AF rears her head or approx. 30 days. I feel like that lil babe is just waiting for the chance to come back.

Physically, I still feel pg symptoms and very fatigued... other than that normal.

I have a few ?'s

1) with my little angel counter... I've asked before and it seemed clear what I wanted to put as for now I'm not even sure. So WWYD? Put the amount of weeks up until you're truely not pg anymore (like when my betas are way down?) (after this supposed bleeding starts n finishes?)

2) oh I forgot what the heck I was going to ask, pfffttt brainfart!

The day I use is the day of my m/c / d&c. I had an ultrasound the day before with no heartbeat and the development stopped possibly weeks before?? but I decided that the day I lost the baby was the day I stopped carrying.

Chances are, your elevated betas were leftover from the miscarriage. I would personally use the date that you believe you miscarried....but that is only me. Whatever you feel in heart is the right thing to do.

I'm so sorry you've had to go through all of this. **HUGS**

Celena, theres no wrong date to use. Most women use the day that the dr. confirmed the m/c or when they passed the baby or had their d&c. Whatever works for you. I dont know about going with the betas though, some women will take a few weeks for the betas to leave their body. Just a thought. Im sorry you have to even think about this part.

I started my counter the day I passed the tissue. But like Liori said, it's really up to you...there is no right or wrong...whatever you feel the date should be. HUGS!

I used the date of my d & c for the counter, but it was confirmed that my baby had passed at about 7wks and 6 days so that is what I put for how long it was with us for. I hope that makes sense.

I am so sorry for your loss, it is such a horrible thing to go through {Hugs}
