Our appointment is in 6 hours. I've had continued "spotting" today which is upsetting but not nearly as frightening as the red bleeding on Saturday and Sunday. I do think this spotting is the beginning of the end.
I had some pretty bad cramping last night which continues as I type in my lower back and abdomen.
I've cried quite a bit and am trying to resolve myself to the idea of seeing an embryo without a heartbeat this afternoon, but that complete feeling of closure won't happen until the moment Dr. M tells me he's sorry.
Today is my birthday. Charlie's been busy shopping and wrapping. The dining room table is piled with wrapped packages and birthday text messages have been popping up on my phone. I feel badly that his efforts to create a special day may not be fully enjoyed. Maybe tomorrow will be better.

I'm sorry that you have to go through this stress of the bleeding and spotting. I'm keeping every last thing I have crossed that things turn out okay :-)
My hopes are that you have a great birthday celebration today - with a good appointment!
I am crossing everything you get good news today!
I've experienced both an ectopic and a blighted ovum (I'm at CCRM) and I know the absolute fear leading up to an ultrasound. There's nothing I can say to ease your fears but I'm wishing you well on this journey!
Hope your appointment is positive and that you have a happy birthday. I know that would be the best present you could get. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Love, Dawn
PS: Today is my sisters birthday too!
Sorry to hear about your cramping and bleeding. I am hoping that you will have a good ultrasound and everything will turn out alright. Will pray for you.
Erin,
I am continually looking at the time knowing soon you are going to the doctor. And praying for you so.
Wishing you all the best for a great appointment.
I'm praying for you and Charlie.
