    I am starting to wonder!!!!

    Hi all,

    I am starting to wonder if I am ever going to have a break from stress in this pregnancy. It just seems as tho everytime I think I can relax something else pops up. grrrrr.

    Well as some of you know I have had different things to worry about with this pg, firstly whether I would get past 5wks, then having my DR do some tests as to why I had been m/cing and coming back with a high result for a blood clotting disorder, in which he kept mentioning Lupus. Well was so worried about that. He did further testing and had better results of negative, yet now the hospital is investigating the positive result. So will be having more tests done next week. Well then over the past few weeks have had spotting and was back and forth from the Dr's and hospital. Only to have an U/S too find out the Bub was there and had a wonderful HB, yet a large chorionic hemotoma is there pressing up against the sac, which was causing the bleeding atm. So touch wood havent had anymore spotting since Friday last week and keep worrying about finding more when I go to the loo. So anyway still feeling quite positive all will be well.
    So now it comes to today, had a call from my DD school as they wanted me to pick her up as she looks like she could have slapped cheek, as they have had a couple of cases of it recently and by the looks she has caught it. So off I go to the DR's, he could not say for sure if she has it as the rash on her face wasnt as bad, even tho she has it on her arms and torso. Yet to be on the safe side did a Blood test on me to make sure that I have not contracted it or if I am immune to it. If I am not immune to it and have caught it then there is a possible risk to the baby, especially since I am still early on. 9weeks Thursday. I will not find out until possibly Tuesday next week what the results are.
    The Dr had told me not to get close to my DD's, JIC. Yet I cant imagine them understanding why I cant give them a cuddle or kiss etc. If I have caught it then I have to get checked up at the hospital and have u/s's done regularly.
    I have been so drained with all the stress and worry, now just had to add that to the pile. lol. I am now having to hope that all will be ok, even if I have caught it. It just seems as tho everythime I start to relax something else pops up.
    Sometimes I wonder with everything that has come up, what hope does this baby get to me safe and sound. It jumps seems like a never ending battle that just wants to drag on and on and on. Cant wait to have a remainding stress free pregnancy.

    Have to wonder what else is going to pop up.....

    Thanks for the Vent......

    Hugs All.

    You poor poor thing Cheryl.

    This is def not something that anyone should have to endure. I hope that all is fine and goes well and you can relax for the remainder of the pregnancy. I'm sure you have a tough nut baby in there! Tuesday is a long time to wait for results though, I suppose it is because of Easter, but still, don't they know how much stress you are under? My thoughts and prayers are with you!

    Feel free to vent anytime - that is the beauty of the BB support network.

    poor DD and you for having to keep your distance.
    and poor you for all these things to keep worrying about. it sounds good that your bleeding has stopped and perhaps the hospital is being overly cautious with your blood results but at least another test will help rule things out.
    sending you big hugs and hope you are able to relax a little and not worry about all the things that 'could be' but almost certainly wont be. xx

    Dusty - I am glad they are doing something, the hospital I mean. It makes me feel better knowing that they are looking into the blood clotting disorder. The GP is the one waiting for the results for slapped cheek. Yet I believe now that she must have it. Her arms are so very red today. Still has a temp. So kept her home from school. So much for keeping my distance, how can I when I am the only one to look after them. Thanks for being here. Hugs

    Ren - Thankyou for being here too. You ladies are great. This little bub has been such a fighter, hope he/she can fight this if I have caught it if not immune. Hugs
