Today is day 32. Soon (I hope) I will lose track. So far all looks good. Which is to say, nothing looks bad. I have resisted doing another test or anything like that. I remember with my pregnancy with Mikaela I did a few tests, just to make sure the hormone was still there. I might have talked my GP into an extra blood test too, to make sure the hormone levels were going up at the proper rate.
This time, I’m not sure why exactly, but I feel more relaxed. I suppose it’s because for both miscarriages there were obvious early signs in terms of very weak pregnancy tests. Still, I will be happy to get past the five week mark, which is when the miscarriage happened last time.
I saw my GP on Wednesday (because of being sick, as I think I said) and told him I was pregnant, and he didn’t even order the usual blood tests, and I forgot about them too. He’s pretty relaxed and would probably say a home test is perfectly good, and we already know I have antibodies to rubella etc. But I think I’ll get the blood tests anyway.

Technorati wants me to add this code r85aexuq3w to claim my blog. I’m sure there use to be a simpler (or at least less odd) way….
Holy-moly … congratulations Kirsten!
Thanks Carter! It’s good to see some people (well two anyway!) are finding me on my new blog
