harleymaggiemae--I agree that it made it a little bit easier that we never saw the heartbeat. I was not feeling good about this pregnancy from the beginning. Something felt different about it, so I think I was preparing myself the whole time. My first ultrasound measured over a week behind what I thought I was (although I was sure of the dates). My second one, it actually seemed like things were going okay...the baby had grown a full week and had the beginning of a fetal pole (but was still behind according to my dates). Then two days later the bleeding started. The ultrasound this Monday showed I had passed most of the baby over the weekend, but I am still bleeding pretty constantly and the cramps come and go. Last night I was really crampy and uncomfortable, and then passed something else out. How long does this go on?! It has gotten better, but I didn't know I'd still be bleeding clots and crampy. I don't think I can even start to think about moving on until the bleeding stops because I am reminded of it every time I go to the bathroom.
By the way, we told my family super early this time and I have mixed feelings about it. I feel bad that they had to go through the hurt/pain with me, but at the same time I feel like I had so much support/help/love through the whole thing. They've been pretty understanding that sometimes I feel like talking about it and sometimes I just really do not.
Do you have any of those new Wii Fit games? I think Bob Greene has one out and so does Jillian from the Biggest Loser? Do you really get a workout using it? I haven't exercised in over a week. I'm thinking maybe by Sunday I'll feel up to doing something. Right now I just feel so yucky...and not eating right and not exercising is not helping anything. |
