I might be a little bit pregnant or not!
We're off for a weekend of triathlons but I wanted to share a quick update on our fertility status before I go to bed.
Yesterday... I took a pregnancy test that shows two lines if you're pregnant and one line if you aren't. Problem: one solid line, one very faded line. What the heck is that supposed to mean? I had to call the Dr. this morning since I was out of progesterone which was prescribed to me last week when a blood test indicated that I didn't have enough progesterone to sustain a pregnancy. I told the nurse about the test result and she said to come in immediately for a blood test for pregnancy. So I dropped everything at work and ran off to the clinic.
Friday afternoon the nurse calls and says, "We have your test results but they are inconclusive. Your levels aren't high enough to confirm a pregnancy but they are also not low enough to deny a pregnancy."
By the way, I had to leave a meeting to take the call which I did since it was Friday afternoon and I needed an answer on the prescription before the weekend. So I'm standing in the hall of my office building whispering to the nurse, "I thought you can't be a little bit pregnant!?"
She said, "Well, it could be too early so you don't have enough of the hormone or we are getting a skewed result because of a hormone surge which would mean you are not pregnant."
She called in a prescription for more progesterone and told me not to test again for pregnancy until next Friday. HA HA! That was exactly what I wanted to hear.
Before anyone gets their hopes up for me, my friend took Clomid and had the same thing happen only she wasn't pregnant. These stupid fertility drugs are supposed to make you pregnant but I think all they really do is make you wonder if you're pregnant. I feel like someone must be kidding me with this stuff. Either way, pregnant or not, this is starting to get funny to me. Who knew you could maybe be pregnant but not be sure. Didn't they use rabbits or something back in the day? I'm going to go find some rabbits and see what's up doc!
