Today's beta is 959.
They said my body wants to hold onto this pregnancy, even though it is gone. It is good for when you are KU, but when you are trying to move on it is agonizing! Now I have to go in Tuesday AND Friday for more betas.

Update on Today's Beta
It was 2100. On Monday it was 6660, so it is falling. Go in next Friday for one more and I will be hoping it will be at O by then.
RIP Right tube
This originally was written on 4/12/2010
Yesterday I woke up in severe pain, so DH rushed me to the hospital at 4 am. Turns out my right tube started to rupture, so they had to remove it. I am doing a lot better physically than I thought I would. The only "sore" areas are where the incisions are so I am hopeful that I can finally go back to work and get into my normal routine again.
I am also grateful that physical drama of the ectopic pregnancy is over, finally!

My Husband, my rock.
Granted with all that has been going on with me and DH and this loss, my heart has been heavy. Don't get me wrong. DH and I are stronger than ever. All this drama with my body has brought us closer together. DH has been absolutely amazing. After the surgery he made me French Toast, when he had no clue on how to make it- all b/c I had a craving. He has been attentive and just there when I need him. If I seem "strong" it is b/c he has been holding me up.
DH and I have been together for 5 years now, and still in the "lovie dovie" stage that I hope never dies, I think it is b/c we found each other later in life and had time to figure out what we wanted and when we found it we latched on.
But, I would be remiss to say that my heart is heavy. We both REALLY want to be parents and had so much hope in the pregnancy.
I had to go into the RE clinic this AM so they can make sure my Beta's continue to fall. This trip, of course was not easy. I get there and everyone is so nice, caring and understanding. The nurse who always takes my blood and who, incidentally, went through a loss at 20 weeks when her babies heart stopped, complimented me on my DH. At first I was taken aback, b/c I guess I never really noticed just HOW supportive he is of me. She told me she has been with her husband for 5 years and they don't act like us. The more I thought about it, the more I realized that she is right. I am lucky, very lucky, despite the hell my body is giving us, I have DH. He truly is my rock and my reason to be thankful.

Things might be finally moving in the right direction!
My beta rose yesterday to 11000, so surgery was a possibility. Today's beta, however dropped to 7,000.

My body the drama queen
And I am soooo over it. I really just want to be done with this mess. Before I start I should mention that last weeks beta was around 6,000.
Yesterday I had a beta draw and it was over 10,000. They told me that it was way too high. So I needed to come in for a ultra sound today. The ultra sound went ok. The tech thinks it is in my right tube not the left the consensus is that it is at the opening of the tube to ute- so the embrio almost made it to the right place... but almost does not count. (sigh) The tubes move behind the ute during pregnancy so it is still difficult to see which tube it is. I don't want it to be my right one b/c it was my right ovary that was producing all the beautiful follies.
Surgery is still not ruled out, but it looks less likely today. There has been no growth, so that is great news. Now the numbers need to fall. I go back in for another beta draw on Thursday. Hopefully we will see a drop.
I just want it all to end. I hate the day-to-day changes that are happening. (Sigh)
