Some who follow this blog may not have heard, but the answer for the day is "maybe". Technically, mo is pregnant.
Technically.
That's a big heavy word. See, by the test any HCG level over 4 is positive. But keep in mind before her laparoscopy she had a positive test as well. Her HCG is a level 10. That seems good, but the number they like to see at this point is 50. So here's the math.
4 < 10 < 50
So...is this just a chemical pregnancy? Maybe. Is this an actual pregnancy? Maybe. Did it not take at all and the injections are causing elevated HCG levels? Maybe. Will we know on Monday? Maybe.
It's like those long lines at theme parks. Every time you turn a corner or go into a new room you think "Okay, now do I get to do the log ride?" and secretly worry it will break down before you get your turn. About the time you've gone through the third room of back and forth lines, you're getting a bit sick of it. That's where we are. Mo and I are tired of the wait.
Not a damn thing we can do about it, but we are perfectly capable of being angry and frustrated about it.
So, Monday and 3 more injections (now 50% larger!) and we might have an answer. Maybe.
(Those who read this, do yourself a favor. Do not suggest we are being taught patience. That is the wrong thing to say right now. You're welcome).
Patience sucks at a time like this. However-I'm happy that it's maybe/technically and not 'No'.
