Most of you know that Kourtney and I are expecting a baby this fall. I am about 6 weeks along. This past weekend I started bleeding on and off and yesterday I passed out at work and went to the Emergency Room. I waited in the ER for over 6 hours and never saw a doctor. After being told I was still at the bottom of the list and realizing that I wouldn't see a doctor until at least the middle of the night, I decided to try another ER. That was no success either. I ended up at an urgent care center at about 5:30 pm. They weren't set up for helping with pregnancy complications, so I left with no answers and no help all day. Kourtney and I were very frustrated, but I was able to get an appointment at my family care doctor's office today. They were extremely helpful and did some examinations and talked to me about my symptoms. They decided it was necessary to give me an ultrasound. During the ultrasound they saw 1 or 2 liquid sacs. They didn't really see anything in them, but said that doesn't mean that i'm not still pregnant and growing. They said there might even be twins! Because I'm not very developed they will have to wait until tomorrow to see the results of my blood test to see if the pregnancy growth hormone has gone up since Monday. If it has, then I should still be developing and they will do another ultrasound next week. If the levels have stayed the same or gone down, I probably have miscarried. Please pray that we will find something out very soon and God will give us peace whatever the outcome may be.
Thank you all for your prayers!
