I'm back from the longest trip of my life. Nothing like spending 11 days with your mother-in-law when dealing with a miscarriage. I was basically trapped in their house for the entire time. When we did go out, we went out with them! I told A that 7 days is the limit from now on. I can't take that any more. My every move was watched and commented on. If I walked into the room "What are you up to? Can I get you something to eat/drink/wear/read?" If I got up from my chair: "Where are you going? Am I too boring for you? Do you want to change the channel?" Umm, no I'm just going to the bathroom. 90 percent of the time she was very nice. However, even when she is nice, she is obsessively clingy. The other 10 percent of the time, I heard comments like: "Wow, look at you cleaning! Dave is not going to know who you are!" or "Do you need help with your ironing because your outfit looks a little wrinkled." She had plenty of advice for me regarding getting pregnant, but I won't/can't go there right now. We took our dog with us for the trip. She kept feeding him people-food. He has a very sensitive stomach and we have told her several times not to do this. Sooo, the dog ends up barfing all over the floor for a few days. I refused to clean it up. Right after he puked one morning, she fed him bacon!
Ok, enough about that. When I had my ultrasound on July 3rd, I was told that as soon as I stopped taking the progesterone shots, my period would come withing 7 days. Well, still no period after 14 days. I just want this to be over with.
Better news: my sil gave birth to her twins on the same day that I found out my baby had stopped growing. This actually made me happy. They were small, but were able to come home after 8 days.
News that made me cry: My other sil found out she is pregnant last week. She had told me a few months ago that she was going to start trying in the Fall. I guess she wanted to get a jump start on the season. I'm trying my hardest to be positive and happy.
Ok, that is enough for now.
