Guest guest Posted December 11, 2000 Report Share Posted December 11, 2000 Tina, Thanks so much for checking in on me. I am doing better. I had HCG rechecked on Sat and it has dropped to 6.1 ( it was 712 two weeks ago). Looks like methotrexate was a good choice for me over surgery. I feel very lucky that this wasn't really drawn out like I have read from others in this group. We celebrated dh's b-day this weekend ..so more wine was consumed . I have had more wine in the past two weeks then I have in the past 1.5 years!! LOL. We had a nice time..it was a good distraction from Saturdays blood work which had served to remind me of our losses. DH and I are looking forward to a quiet Christmas together. The toughest part about this weekend was going to my mil's for dh's b-day last night sil . My sil was there and she is pg with her third child and her due date is what mine would have been (July 25 , 2001). Everyone was congratulating her in front of me. It was really tough. It took all of my might not to burst into tears. I really don't think any one realizes what a painful experience pg loss is unless they have been through it themselves. My dh's family really is very nice and if they knew how they were making me feel I don't think they would have acted that way. I could have said something to them but I hate being the one that everyone has to whisper around and talks about in secret. OOPs sorry I didn't mean to make this into a novel!!! I hope things are going well with you! - I > Hi , > How are you?I haven't talked to you since you tried and succeeded in baking > cookies while drunk:)I just thought I check to see if your okay! > Tina > __________________________________________________ ___________________________________ > Get more from the Web.

Guest guest Posted December 11, 2000 Report Share Posted December 11, 2000 Hi , I'm glad your numbers are down and I just wanted to say I completley understand what you wrote about not wanting to be the one person they have to whisper in front of, etc...I feel like it's such a fine line between wanting to yell " I lost a baby and you should be sensitive! " and just keeping quiet so people don't feel too sorry for you. It sounds like you held up admirably though. I hope the holiday season is going well.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2000 Report Share Posted December 12, 2000 I'm glad to see your #'s are dropping.And it sounds like your dh b-day went good.I can imagine how hard it was for you with your sil being pg.My sister is pg(7wks.)and she was " entertaining " her dh and fell off a chair.So we had to take her to the ER,which was the same place I went w/my ep.I felt awkward being there again so soon.Bad girl me wondered upstairs to the nursery,or so I thought.It was the birth and delivery floor,the nursery was downstairs.I got back on the elevator to go back downstairs and two dads were getting on pushing their newborns.They were talking and just overjoyed.I stood in the back like a weirdo trying not to cry.I didn't expect to feel that way.I ran to the bathroom and cried.When my dh saw me he was like what's wrong.I just said my allergies were bothering me.He rolled his eyes.I guess I should see a shrink:) Well,I guess i'll talk to you later.
