Well it wasn't a miscarriage after all?!?!?!

by AZMomComment Published at 15:0715:074 comments4 comments49 Visits49 VisitsReport

Leading on from my blog of 29th April, I was convinced I had a 3rd miscarriage this year with this pregnancy, all the signs were telling me that and I did not feel pregnant at all. I had some blood tests taken to check the HCG hormone but as the lab screwed up the results I never received any feedback from my OBGYN.

On Thursday I started having what I can only describe as 'labor pains' and I just put it down to the miscarriage. However, yesterday the pain was still there and I just knew something wasn't right... I went to the ER and with further blood work it showed my hormone levels had increased!  I had another transvaginal scan and it showed both ovaries were abnormal but nothing else. My OBGYN thought it was an ectopic pregancy so did a laproscopy (I think that's how it is spelt?) Anyway, it was an ectopic pregnancy and it has now been removed. There is a possibility not all of it was removed  so I still need to have further HCG test to make sure. The good news is my tube has been saved, bad news is it increases the risk of a futher ectopic pregnancy in the future. 

I am so shocked that I was not aware I was still pregnant, and as my Dr said it could have been life threatening had it ruptured... I am just so glad to be able to spend Mother's day at home with my family.

Boot camp

by AZMomComment Published at 17:3617:366 comments6 comments21 Visits21 VisitsReport

I started baby boot camp classes today..it was really enjoyable but I KNOW I am gonna feel it tomorrow... I am already feeling it in my hamstrings! I felt so bad as I was trying to remember the last time I did regular exercise and apart from aqua aerobics and walking, the last thing I did was kickboxing prior to getting pregnant with JB  I am going to make sure I do as many classes as I can before we move in a month! Today is the start of my 'get back in shape' quest!
