Well, this week has been a tad rocky that's for sure. Just knowing that I've now went through a 7th MC is enough. Friday the nurse called and said my Hcg level was a 1.3 which is great, means I won't have to get a D&C but then again, it was the end of the pregnancy. I have an appointment w/ my RE on the 12th to discuss options. I really want one more baby. I told Gabe that if we lived in a perfect world and I never had any problems, we'd have a house full of children. I love kids!!! I want Matthew to have a sibling close to his age.
I've done well holding it together. I had a couple of bad days but I'm so busy w/ the boys that I don't have time to sulk or really think about it. The only time it occurs to me the most is when I change clothes or take a shower and see a huge bruise on my stomach where I did a Heparin injection. That is a constant reminder but luckily it will fade. I've tried my best to occupy my mind and stay busy which isn't hard w/ a toddler and a 5th grader. LOL
We plan on trying again soon and all we can do is trust that whatever happens, it's in God's hands.
On a happier note, we went out of town to the mountains for Labor Day weekend and cooked out today. We went to Linville Caverns and I got to see my aunt in Boone. I'm not sure if she'll be around much longer so it was so nice to see her. We just dropped in for a little bit but Matthew was getting cranky so we couldn't stay long. :( I want to go visit her again within the next month. We did a lot of driving around, went to the Mast General Store and a few other places. Today, we had my mom and Tommy's best friend, Nick, over for the cookout. I love having people over.
It turned out to be a wonderful weekend with friends and family.
