Ultrasound #4 and blood work

The ultrasound went well and didn't show any signs of a hemorrhage. Both heart rates were at 158 and the babies measured 12 weeks 1 day and are right on target. I will post the ultrasound pictures later under the tab at the top of the blog.

My blood work won't come back for around a week so I won't know more about that until then. If my platelet count doesn't go down I will be referred to a hematologist. Then I can at least know what direction this is taking me. My doctor is staying very positive that things will get better so I'm glad he isn't the doom and gloom guy. He did however follow up with this is something he hasn't seen in the the 30+ years he has been practicing. My platelet count should be around 400 thousand and mine is around 880 thousand and my white blood cells are high as well. I am continuing to pray and stay as positive as I can.

  2. So glad that u/s went well and you go to see the precious babies heartbeats! I will be saying lots of prayers for you and I'm on board with your doctor that the count will come down and this is due to the OHSS.. It can never be easy right?! Stay positive and know that we are all praying for you and your little ones!

  6. Well, it was good news and wait some more news... so lets be thankful for no bad news. I'm so glad the babies are okay! Continuing to pray that this is a fluke, a weird test, or a symptom of OHSS. Hang in there!
