yep.

As of February 27th, 2009 my hcg levels (pregnancy hormones) had reached zero. Meaning the miscarriage was complete and my period should return soon. Which it did.. my last period was March 11th, 2009. I expected my next period to come around April 8th, 2009. It got to be the 10th and I had my suspecions. I woke Friday morning, took a test. Waited. Then after a few minutes - BINK "pregnant"! My inital thought was "REALLY!?" and I started laughing. My second thought was, what am I going to tell mancub?! I decided that it is best to wait it out until I am 12 weeks or so along to ensure everything is okay with the baby. So far I've told mom, carrie and a couple people at work. I am extremely excited and all I can hope is that this is meant to be! I scheduled my first appointment for May 5th, 2009, if all goes well I'll be nearly 8 weeks. And this little one is due around mid-december.

doctor, doctor

It seems that I have been to more doctor's appointments and have had my blood drawn more times so far this year than I have in my entire life altogether!
I had a visit with my primary to fill her in on the miscarriage, request to resume taking zoloft and check my HCG levels along with my thyroid antibodies. My mother has an autoimmune disease called Hashimotos that I could very well have it myself. It's is actually pretty difficult to diagnose without prior reason, since the condition is rare in itself. So I requested for them to check and see, mainly just for peace of mind. The day of the miscarriage my hcg levels were at about 1500. It's been two weeks since I passed the embryo, so I'm curious to know if I've hit >5 yet. As much as I don't want my period (a certainty that the pregnancy is over) I would like to resume life and possibly try again in the future.
I indulged myself in a little bit of retail therapy there after... mainly my comforts. New notebooks, pens, chocolate, hair dye and a couple other small finds from my favorite thrift store.
Work called to inform me that I do not have to come in tomorrow morning due to low census. Which completely blows seeing as I've already missed forty something hours this month. But what can you do.. *shrugs* I will not miss a single day in march. That's a promise!
