The good news is (and yes, there is always a silver lining) that I received a call from the RE's office on Saturday afternoon after my beta. They reported that my 415 went down to 287 in a 3 days. Yay! That means I (probably) wont have to go in for another shot, as this one seems to be working to resolve my ectopic.
I'm having mixed emotions about not being able to try for the next few cycles. On one hand, I am sad and anxious (and impatient!), and REALLY want to get pregnant in 2009. Every month that passes decreases the chances for that happening....Of course, as my mother points out, we DID get pregnant in 2009, but I was kind of hoping more for the kind of pregnancy that actually yields A BABY. On the other hand, I'm grateful for a little break from planning and obsessing. So far, it has been nice to be focusing my attention on other things in my life. Not thinking about it has made me a little bit more healthy in the head, and my body will be happy to be drug and hormone free for a few months!
On Sunday, M and I took fur baby Charlie for a hike to a lake nearby. Here's a pic of me and my baby:
I'm glad you don't have to get another shot. Cute pic of you and Charlie....what a beautiful lake!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad the one shot seems to be resolving everything!
ReplyDeleteEat the biggest, best salad ever and have a bottle of wine! :) At this rate, you'll be back on the TTC trail in no time, so live it up for today!
What a gorgeous place for a hike!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that numbers are descending at an agreeable rate. I hope you are able to move on to a cycle ealier than they are predicting.
Hang in there.
