HCG was 357 which is within the ranges for my dates but a different doctor gave me the results and told me they were low for the dates and sent me into a tailspin I am still recovering from. Stupid woman. So consequently I am upset and worried about the cramping and hoping there will be a fabulous rise when I get stabbed again on Friday.

However, while typing this my GP called and told me not to worry it was a normal level. She would like it to be higher but we will know more on Friday AND why did I not call her when she gave me her home phone number!!! She is a lovely lady who has been my GP for over 10 years and followed me through the ups and downs. For Sydney, I think it is unusual for your doctor to give out their home phone number and expect you to call it for your blood results but I am very grateful. I think I got the trainee and I would like to personally throttle her RIGHT NOW!!!!!

So feeling a little better and having a glass of red wine (no lectures - I am working on the anaerobic energy production at this stage and also that the stress levels of the mother is bad for the baby). DH is also back and I am sooooooo happy to have him here supporting me.
