Today, we will take a pregnancy test and do blood work. We will know sweet miracle if you are on your way. Unfortunately though, there is still a risk of a chemical pregnancy -- meaning the embryo implanted, but didn't continue to grow. Blood work and a pregnancy test would show a positive in this case, even though we wouldn't truly be pregnant.
So, today is a step in the right direction, but we still have another long wait ahead of us before we know for sure that you are on your way! If today's results come back positive, we will have several appointments over the next week or two. Each time, they will closely monitor my levels, making sure they are increasing like a normal pregnancy. Then, if all goes well, in a few weeks we will have an ultrasound to see where you have implanted.
In my heart, I know this had to work. You have to be on your way. I can just feel it. And so while we go in to today's appointment faithfully knowing we will receive good news, we still have another long wait before we officially know that this miracle has happened.
