Just like that?

Last Friday I took one final test to confirm I wasn't pregnant before I hopped in the car and traveled south to Alabama to drop off Miss Mia and visit with Jillian and Peyton. The test was a BFN so off I went expecting to start on Saturday. Saturday came and went with no sign of AF. On our way home Sunday my mom, aunt and I got to talking about my crazy cycle and what was going on, I decided then I would take my last FRER the following morning.. Much to my surprise Monday morning the test showed a very very very faint line. I called my RE and explained to them that I thought I could be a week late but wasn't sure because of the crazy stair stepping process I had done in November that threw my cycle off, and also that I had a very very faint test! They had me come in right away for blood work, and 3 short hours later they called to confirm that I was in fact pregnant but that my levels were extremely low and that I was more than likely having a bio Chemical pregnancy. The nurse made an appointment for me to return on Wednesday to confirm their theory. Today I started to cramp and spot. So the repeat labs will not be necessary. I just can not believe this is happing? That we conceived on our own, on our off month... Only to have it ripped away yet again. I am assuming that this will not affect our iui for next month and that we can go ahead with our plan. But it's just so hard to accept that 4 times now, I have been pregnant and 4 times now I have not been able to carry that pregnancy to term. It makes me scared for next month, it makes me scared for the future in general..will I ever be able to have a successful pregnancy or will we just keep getting up, to get knocked down? So it's over just like that.. Another pregnancy come and gone.

    Wow. I am so sorry. I am so disappointed with you. I pray that it is just spotting and this may be a miracle sticky pregnancy. It's just not right, :(

    Part of me wants to say thats it throw in the towel. Lay on the ground and I'll cover you so you don't feel the next blow coming, let it hit me instead, but that is wrong.
    Even though we can't see it now, there has to be a solution, a sunrise beyond the clouds. Remember what I have always told you, no matter how bad you have it, there is somebody else out there that has carried 10 times your burden.
    Lean on Scott, lean on me and your Dad, lean on all of these wonderful people that you have met through your Blog and we will help hold you up until you can do it yourself.
    Find that unshakeable faith and determination that you carry.
    Remember...
    IF THE PLAN DOESN'T WORK,
    CHANGE THE PLAN
    BUT NEVER THE GOAL
    That being said, let's go throw rocks and cuss at the top of our lungs.
    I love you two.
    Momma

    Alexis, I am so so terribly sorry for what you are going through. I know if feels like such a punch in the stomach and heart. I wish there was something I could say to take the pain away. you are beyond strong and faithful...full of life and hope and I know you will kick this in the ass. You have every right to grieve and be angry...let it out and scream! I believe that this won't disrupt your next IUI cycle and I will be praying so so very hard. You will be in my thoughts as always! Huge monster hugs! Xoxox

    Alexis, my heart was in my throat when I read this post. I literally screeched out loud when I got to the part about your faint positive, and by the time I got to the end, I felt like I had been kicked in the gut. I am so, so sorry. Words cannot accurately express how sorry I am. Reading your momma's post, too--I feel so much for your whole family. I wish we had the power to ask "why" and receive immediate answers. (Well, really, I wish we never had cause to ask why in the first place.) I truly believe that one day, you will look back on these posts with your rainbow baby in your arms and understand why things had to happen the way they did. Until then though, I am praying for peace and strength for you all. Love and hugs~~xoxo
