I started spotting light brown over a week ago, and began light bleeding a day after. I freaked out and went to the doctor. A blood test on a Thursday gave me HCG levels of 6000, and then one this past Monday put me at 13,000. This past Thursday I had an ultrasound and saw the heartbeat, although they were not able to measure how fast it was beating since I was only at 6 weeks and 2 days--the baby was just too small.
After reviewing the ultrasound, my doctor has put me on bed rest for another full will with more HCG tests and another ultrasound. The thought of the tests freaks me out, but I am trusting God and clinging to the fact that we saw a heartbeat and an embryo size consistent with how far along I am.
That being said, I am so bored. My family lives 45 minutes away, my husband works quite a bit, and all I have to do all day is sit around. I'm going to try and get a paper written, but it's really lonely here. Still, I am just so thankful to finally be pregnant!
