The final result is we had a chemical pregnancy. Friday's blood test results were 5.5.
You try not to be hopeful but you can't help it. And then the results are what you knew them to be all along. Certainly, disappointing. I don't know how I really feel. I know that at times I am sad but most of the time I am resigned to "it is what it is".
The nurse told me to stop all medications and by Saturday, my period was creeping out. I started cramping but not too bad, just uncomfortable. Then Sunday morning, at around 3am, I started to get really bad cramps. It became apparent that I no longer had an embryo in me.
Today, I went in for another blood test to make sure that my levels are at zero. Once, we confirm the levels are at zero we start our fourth try with the two frozen embryos. I am not sure of the protocol but I do know that there are less injections and less ultrasounds. Yippee!!
Let's see how it will go.
