Bad news

Beta only rose to 70 - not enough to be viable.

Now the nurses are concerned it could be ectopic - what a cruel twist of fate if a healthy embryo implanted in the wrong spot. I am really hoping it isn't - as just want it all to be over with.

Expecting a call from doctor today. I am still taking all the drugs - and still couldn't bring myself to have a glass of wine last night - crap isn't it.

They want me to have another blood test on Sunday - but we are going to be in a completely remote spot - and Monday will be a long ferry ride and a plane back to Sydney.

So it will have to be Tuesday - unless ofcourse I get ectopic symptoms and then will head to the nearest hospital double quick.

We were driving through some of the most beautiful countryside I have ever seen yesterday when the bad news came through. I howled with the pain of a thousand arrows to the heart.

I have felt the past few days that my 'sickness' was too sporadic - it would come it a wave and be gone. I had been keeping away from the pee sticks.

I'm so so sorry. I know the feeling and it is the worst of all possibilities. I really hope it is not an ectopic, that is just more complication.
I hope you have support there and you are able to take some time to lick your wounds.

You'll be in my thoughts xx

Oh my goodness.

There are no words are there? Except well, a lot of swear words.

I'm thinking of you too. Take care of yourself and do whatever you feel like doing if it helps to make you feel a little better.
