3rd Ultrasound

So I have an early update for you because after my post last week, my doctor called the next day and changed around my meds and moved up when to see me. The Dr. called a specialist in recurrent miscarriage loss and asked her opinion on what I should do with my meds and the bleeding and he said to stop my baby aspirin but stay on the Heparin. You guys may not have known I was on that, but I have been since I found out I was pregnant. So the concern is we want to stop the blood thinners to help stop the bleeding, but not stop them so much that I  have a clot in the placenta and the baby stops growing and dies. It is a balancing act. So anyways I stopped the baby aspirin and went in this morning.
He said the bleeding spot had grown. He couldn't tell me how much it had grown but this time it measured 2 cm in length. There was still a good heartbeat and the baby was measuring on track so that is a good thing! It is getting some blood and nutrients! He wanted to make sure it got enough progesterone too so he added in a shot of progesterone in the booty. It's like dejavu. Back to the dreaded booty shots. I already got one this morning and my hip/hiney is already so sore. I'll take it though if this results in a healthy baby! So I will be doing that for the next week. We go back next Tuesday to see how things are looking. Hopefully still no spotting and the blood is smaller or absorbed. And that the baby has a good heartbeat and is measuring on track. Those are the prayers we need right now. I am told to take it easy and no lifting so we are going to be watching lots of tv and movies this week! I'll be back this Friday with an update on how things are going and what our plans are for the weekend! Talk to you all soon! XOXO
