I waited all day for the call from my Dr to tell me the results of the HCG and ultrasound. Finally at 4:57 she calls. She tells me my HCG numbers are still fairly high but my ultrasound looked good she did see a heartbeat and it looks to be healthy and strong...but it also is measuring a bit large so maybe I am further along than I think I am..maybe 8 weeks instead of 6........ *blink blink* Uhhhh I *AM* 8 weeks! Do you mean to tell me I went through all of that for NOTHING? Oh Dear Lord! She goes on to ask me if I had scheduled the high powered ultrasound for 10 weeks and I told her I didn't think I was going to..the risk outweighs the benefits. She says I really think you should considering the circumstances. WHAT circumstances. I am 8 weeks pregnant....I am measuring 8 weeks pregnant, They saw a healthy heartbeat, and my HCG levels are measuring 8 weeks. Where is the problem? I have come the conclusion that I am really glad she wont be the one delivering this baby. I will be referred to a different Dr for that. All this added stress for nothing! *sigh* at least the outcome was good news.
