Jeanette84-Thank you for the response. Yes, I was kinda planning, but didn't think it'd be this soon.....though glad it is. My husband and I have a seven year old, going on eight, and after the cervical battle I had over a year ago, I really felt this was a good time to have another wee one. My son is getting older, I don't want it much farther apart. And, I was on the Depo shot for seven years, so we weren't sure pregnancy would be much of an option until next year. It's been seven months since my last shot. I took the test because my body and mind just weren't the same. My husband would look at me wrong and I'd cry, my breasts hurt like crazy, and being a small breasted gal, I knew that growing one cup size wasn't normal. I gained five lbs out of no-where and when my friend asked me if I was prego, it hit me that I was a week late for my period. The bleeding has slowed down, but not completely stopped, and I did pass tissue, though only one clot of it. The cramping is gone. The prego test today is lit up more than before. I go in this morning for another HCG count. My hopes aren't too high at this point, but there is one thing weighing on my mind.
I'm a twin, so twins do run in my family (though we'd be the least expected to birth them ourselves). The night before I started to bleed, I had a dream that I was carrying twins. Then started bleeding the next day. The dream continued for the next three nights. I don't know if I am paranoid (being an identical twin myself, I'd know the hardships of having them), or if maybe those dreams are saying I'm losing one.
Sounds odd, I know. Feel a little goofy saying it. But it just sounds odd that my twin would have a misscarraige and tubal in a row, then months later, I'd misscarriage too. Even the Doc finds that weird. I know it does happen. But everything in me says that this baby is alive and well. Not to mention I'm still gaining the weight and can barely wear a bra.
It's in fate's hands, and I am well aware of my odds....and accept either way. I just feel that this baby was meant to be. Crossing my fingers today, guess we'll know a whole lot more :). Thanks again, it's nice to talk to people who understand and have been through it.
