So after thinking everything was fine yesterday, the RE called me to explain why she wanted to keep doing betas. She is worried that this could be an ectopic pregnancy, since my betas started off a little low and have been slow to rise, even though they are rising at least 66% every 48 hours which is within the acceptable limits. She wants to do an ultrasound on Monday so that "hopefully we see a sac in the uterus." I was fine, even happy with yesterdays results, but then she had to go rain on my parade. I'm not gonna lie, I had an emotional breakdown complete with hysterical, runny nose crying.
But now I am fine. I am determined to stay positive because I believe that little Patches is right where he is supposed to be. I have not had any pain in my abdomen, lower back, or shoulder. I have not had even the tiniest bit of spotting. I have had some mild cramps occasionally, but this is completely normal from what I hear. I understand that the doctors just want to be sure they are covering all their bases, but I could have done without that tidbit right before Christmas.
