Still Shaky but My Phone Finally Rang

My nurse just called. The first thing out of her mouth after "Hi xxxx, it's xxx" was "it's because of the ultrasound." She was very nice about reminding me that I'm on baby aspirin AND an injectible blood thinner. She said that unless I start bleeding a lot I really shouldn't worry. Easier said than done! But I do feel a bit better. Won't stop me from running to the bathroom for a panty check as often as possible, but I'm trying to breath deep. Plan to do nothing but lie on the couch all night!!!!!

Glad she called back. The combo of baby asprin, blood thinner, and u/s sounds like a likely cuplrit. But I agree, stay on the couch and remind the hubby of that email he sent you last night--his turn to make dinner!!

so no chance they were going to sneak you in for another u/s then, huh???

great news on the U/S and the bleeding sounds pretty normal. I had it too at pretty much that exact time (and weeks after). A heartbeat, wow, congrats! From SL (in and out of luck)

Oh, what a scare! Nice to know that there is a reasonable explanation, but it still must be nervewracking. Hope you get another US soon!
