So, the last couple of days have been really rough. Hubby and I are taking things pretty well or as well as expected. I expect we will be sleeping lots for the next couple of days.

It all stated Sat Aug 29th. I've been having menstrual spotting for 15 days... ugh... well that night I passes a blood clot that was just a little smaller than the palm of my hand. I was immediately worried. Hubby was didn't know what to think. I went to Wal-Mart close to midnight to get a pregnancy test and some edamame. yummy! Sunday morning I got up and took the test. And, I was completely shocked that it came back positive! At this point it's really early and I have to go to work in a couple of hours. Crazy we were both awake at 8 am on a Sunday morning. We decided to go have breakfast at McDonald's since we are both awake and obviously not going back to sleep. I went to work and manage to pull a long day at the studio. Upon coming home Hubby and I talked, we talked to friends and family and then the Dr. The Dr said that everything at the moment sounded fine that I needed to get to the Dr.'s office Monday.

Monday comes along and things couldn't be crazier! The OBGYN can't get me in, the blood work will take 48 hours and then they would get me in for an GY Ultrasound... I'm supposed to leave for K's wedding on Thursday. So both options are a no go... I have to find out if I can travel before I'm supposed to leave. I then contacted my PCP to see if I needed to go to the emergency room and what do you know they can get me in ASAP. So, by 11:30 am hubby and I are sitting in the nurse practitioners office. And the pee test was positive again. So downstairs to the Lab for some blood work and then to the ultrasound clinic. That and I've just gave them all my pee and now they want me to have a full bladder ugh... Now we wait...

6 pm the Dr finally calls. the ultrasound was inconclusive... we are still too early in the pregnancy to actually see anything. At this time all we do know is that I don't have a tubal pregnancy... we still don't know why I'm bleeding... and the blood count came back that I do have the hormone levels to be pregnant. Hubby and I are somewhat relieved, but now again we are waiting... the only way to know for sure that we still have a viable pregnancy is to wait till Wed. to take another blood test and see if the hormone levels go up or down. Up is good we have a viable pregnancy, Down is bad we've had a miscarriage. We do know at this point that YES we can get pregnant! I'm also told that I shouldn't be on my feet too much so that means I can't make it in to work until we know more about what is going on. Either way I need to make some decisions about my OBGYN.

Now here are my issues with my OBGYN and his office.

1) I really liked him the last couple of times that I've been into see him.

2) He was on vacation this week

3) The Dr that I spoke to on the phone was very nice (and I can't remember his name)

4) The fact that they couldn't get me in to any one of the other 4 Dr.'s on staff?

5) I never talked to a Dr again through the calls that I made throughout the day... no one asked if I had any changes in how I felt or was doing

6)They wanted to wait on the ultra sound till they knew I was pregnant...

a) the ultra sound confirmed that I didn't have a tubal pregnancy which could have been bad for me if it had been and also a reason for the bleeding.

b) if the PCP thought it was concern enough to get me in ASAP...

c) who was more efficient or correct in their actions

7) The facility also has a midwife and I was seriously considering using a midwife.

Now, Hubby and I need to make a decision on what OBGYN/Dr facility to use in the future.
