Jerri's Diary EntriesDiary Navigation: |
March 12, 2002
A quick recap, we were outside, getting ready to go to the beach on
Sunday morning. I came inside to get things together and saw the
blood. I called the doc, went to her office, she said I was
dialating and then did the u/s. Baby had no heartbeat and was
smaller than it was 3 days earlier. I went to register to have the
surgery, the bleeding got worse just in that little bit of time.
They did the d&c, she gave me some medicine to cause my uterus to
contract and "shrink" back to normal size. She did say that my
uterus was measuring 9 weeks, at least that explains why my pants
were too small. The medicine cramped me really bad while I was in
recovery but since then, (she sent me home with 2 days worth of that
medicine), it hasn't cramped me too much at all. I didn't sleep much
on Sunday at all, but I slept all day yesterday and all night last
night, now I am wide awake, bleeding, cramping some and I have a
backache, hummmm I guess that is why I am not suppose to be sitting
upright in a chair. Doc did send tissue to pathology to be tested
and said she did the other tests to see if there were any immune
disorders that might be causing the m/c's. Otherwise, I go back in 2
weeks for the results. She told me to wait one cycle and then we
could try again. So, that is that, and I am off to lay down!
