An Answer?

My beta is up to 152 from 113 on Friday. Obviously, not a good rise.

My doc and nurse are concerned that this is an ectopic pregnancy. I'm going in for blood work and an ultrasound tomorrow (thank goodness that parking is free at my clinic, they'd be making a fortune off me). If we see a sac in the right place, we'll try and let it go on for a couple more days, see what happens. If we don't and it's tubal, we'll have to terminate.

I feel like an ectopic would explain the mild cramping I've been feeling for the past couple of weeks. I've been passing if off as gas, but it could be tubal.

JD has gone off the deep end with worrying and depression; a difference from his way calm stance before that everything would work out because he had willed it to be so. I'm surprisingly calm. I guess I feel like we now have an answer.

I'm not even sure what words would even be appropriate right now. I'm letting you know I'm here. I'm trying to do the internet version of just "being there." I'm so sorry that this is not easier.
