Coming To A Close

Our trip to Mobile yesterday went about as well as it could have. We did one more ultrasound and there still wasn't anything to be found in the gestational sack. What really convinced the doctor though was that it looks like there's some bleeding starting to occur around the outside edge of the sack. So between that and her hormone levels, we feel confident that we've lost the baby.

It's been hard but I really think the hardest part of it all is that we've been dealing with it for two weeks now. It's nice to finally have a definitive answer so that we can go ahead and get through the grieving process and get back on our feet. That may sound cold, but we've been through such a long cycle of hope/grief/hope, that it's just a relief for it to finally be over.

So that's where we stand. In trying to carry on with life, we watched Kung Fu Panda last night. It was pretty good. It had a couple of really funny moments and it had a nice moral to it.

Have a good Thursday.
