My new house guests

Ok so lets recap.... Dr. Oz and his entire  medical staff think I was pregnant but it wasn't viable. Who are the medical professionals here? Not me, right? Ok so, maybe its true and maybe I AM the crazy one in this story.

I've been thinking back on my last few weeks..... I feel like one of those trolls on TB boards posting this, LOL heh heh. At any rate, please don't agree that I'm insane. I already know this... here's the honest to goodness truth about whats happened the last few weeks.

Bleeding from our loss stopped weeks ago finally, but then randomly I started getting migraines and my face broke out very similar to a period. Then I "started spotting" again on VDay weekend (the 16th) but attributed it to our loss bleeding reoccurring.

We dtd on Sunday the 23rd and about 1.5 weeks later started feeling really off. Dizzy, bothered by my stinky garbage at work, woke up twice early morning sick and threw up, super tired....even made a few jokes to Jim and my coworkers "If I didn't know better I'd think I was pregnant again".   I (STILL not happy about this....) had a SHG without a pregnancy test first, but Ironically the hell to follow...who would have thought it necessary. Dr. Oz couldn't get the catheter threw my cervix, it was closed up mostly. He eventually did get it to go through but it was difficult and I've never, ever, EVER had an issue with that. I'm wondering when the cervix starts to close up? Could it have been doing that to protect an embryo? Oh man...

Ok so from what I'm reading and taking in from others in similar situations a few things can happen.

1) You have retained tissue that can cause hcg to fluctuate up and down. However, every story of this happening is with hcg at very high levels. Not at a 7, which then doubles, which then comes back down.

2) Your betas can be very slow to get down to zero but won't fluctuate.

3) You can have a zero beta but have bleeding, signs of infection, cramping ...indicated retained tissue

I do not fall into any of these categories. The only thing that is an unknown is if my hcg ever fell to zero after Jack.

However, the more and more I think about it and the more and more the RE's office keeps telling me this was a spontaneous pregnancy.... I'm starting to maybe, kinda, sorta, a little bit possibly believe it?

So I bought these new friends to join me in my house next week. Provided my beta is on the decline, which would also further make me on "Team Spontaneous Pregnancy" with the RE, I'll start taking the OPKs.

Hey you never know....wouldn't that just be a shit kick in the pants. 2 IUIs, 5 IVFs, 1 FET, and the loss of my son and it happens on its own? I'd have to buy a lottery ticket for sure...
