I wrote a few weeks back with concern/questions over not knowing one is
pregnanat and the likelihood of doing damaging things before one is aware they
are pregnant. Well, last Tuesday, I thought I had good news - first prenatal
appt. Turns out my pregnancy was caught really early, maybe 6 weeks or less,
but ultrasound was very faint - sort of two "bubbles" and one thicker white
line between. Just thought it was too early to tell. Midwife had me take two
hcg blood tests 48 hrs apart to help determine term, ensure everything was
profressing well. Well, yesterday, she called to tell me my hormone levels had
been dropping and it wasn't a viable pregnancy. To expect bleeding similar to a
period and keep my appt with her next Tues.

QUestions: Im pretty much ok wit this, but is there anything special I should
be doing/not doing while my body recovers?
Second, how does one decide if they want to have a second child, and for the
right reasons?
I trust my body can recover well, and that I could get pregnant later, but am
now wondering if we want to have another - Im sure I do, hubby says he doesn't
care either way but "kinda liked it with just the 3 of us (with our 3 yr old)"
- but Im not sure hwo to decide my wanting to have another is for the right
reasons.

another somewhat twisted sidenote of babble - is there a way to change the
option to not publish a message from  to something else, at least in the
pregnancy forum? maybe that was too bad of humor...apologize if anyone's
offended.
