Good and Bad News

Well, the bad news is that there is still something on my right ovary. It hasn't grown in size. The u/s tech. isn't sure what it is. Some guesses are that the ovary is misshapened from the last ectopic. She was going to talk to the dr. on Monday as he was out of the office today. My b/w from yesterday hasn't come back yet. The nurse called the hospital but, it was still pending as on 1pm. She said that she would call when she got the results. They closed about a half hour ago, so I didn't get a call. She said to call on Monday if I didn't hear anything.

The good news is that there is something in the uterus!! The tech. said it could be two things. One a blood clot from the thing on my ovary or two a gestational sac that is starting to grow a yolk sac. I asked her what her opinion was since she does this everday. She said that she didn't want to get my hopes up too high but she thought it was a gestational sac. It's measuring at 4wks. 2 days. She said that would be a reason she didn't see anything last week. It would have only measured 3wks. and you can't see that on u/s. I'm not out of the woods so to speak yet, but we are closer. I go back on Friday again to measure any growth and to see if what we saw was actually a yolk sac starting. So, I got another stay for another week. I think I'll be living this "pregnancy" week by week. That's ok with me as long as it's really a baby and it's healthy.
