8w1d

So this nurse from my RE office called me this morning.  I told her about the spotting and she talked to the doctor and offered for me to come in for one last u/s on Tuesday if I want.   She did say it may not be covered by insurance (not like it would really matter since my deducible renewed so we would have to pay out of pocket anyways).  Anyways, I said yes.  I don't want to go 3 weeks without having a scan done especially with having the SCH.  Though the tiny amount of spotting I had this morning stopped by noon time, I have no idea what it looks like on the inside.  If it is still there and if it has grown or shrunk.

The only thing that worries me is on Tuesday I will be 8w6d.  The exact same day I was with my first pregnancy when we found out the baby had died.  This puts extra pressure on this date.  I tried using my doppler again this morning even though I know I said I wouldn't.  I listened for 10 minutes before the batteries died and still only was able to pick up my pulse and even that took time to find.  So I don't know what to think.  I know I shouldn't read too much into this, but it is hard when I worry everyday about whether the baby is still alive or not.  Since the batteries are dead though I guess this will force me to not use it for at least another few more days.
