The d&c had to be moved for tomorrow at 10 am, after that I will be leaving for Los Cacaos, I think I'll be able to recover both phisically and emotionally faster if I just leave.
I wont be able to post until next weekend probably, please keep us in your thoughs and prayers tomorrow morning.

...
I hate for this to become a grieve blog, but this is part of our journey and what we are going thru', Bayohan has a different way of grieving he is more optimistic, I in the other hand just cant stop crying :/
Today was a little less hard, and I guess it will improve over time, I know once I start working I'll be able to stop thinking about it 24/7.
Tomorrow I'll go for my d&c, I really wish nature would just do it for me but I guess that wont happen for me, luck is not on my side...
I know we will come out of this stronger and again I really want to thank those of you for your prayers, right now I just think it was meant to happen no matter what, but still belive in the power of a prayer even if the outcome is not what we want, right?
God has his way of showing things to us, and this has happened before, that I dont understand why things go a certain way and at the end it all makes sense... I rather belive in that and not be angry for things I cannot control.

Sad
The ultrasound showed no heartbeat, the doctor told me the baby stopped growing.
I am really sad and confused, I dont get it, the baby measures the time I have (8 weeks) so there SHOULD be a heartbeat, but there isnt, I am not sure what to think, if it is a dimised it happened a couple days ago?!
We are really sad...

Hopefully my last day of bedrest :)
It's already monday here so in exactly 10 hours I will get my ultrasound, unfortunately I dont get to go to Los Cacaos tomorrow, because Bayo will pick me up on thursday :(
Fonsy will be joining me for the ultrasound tomorrow so that I dont go nuts on the waiting room, lol!!
Again please pray for tomorrow, we are really nervous :/

Journey of a bedrest: day 19
Only 2 days to go...
Can you belive that I could get out of here in 2 days :)
But I have to wait for Bayo to pick me up and go to my drs appoinment before I leave to Los Cacaos, he's been talking about coming tuesday instead of thursday, if that is the case my appoinment is open and I can change it and be out of here sooner :)
Please pray for a healthy heartbeat on that ultrasound and for Bayo to be able to make it here before.

Journey of a bedrest: day 12
Only 9 days to go...
Having to give yourself a shot is not fun!!!
I've been doing it for 4 weeks (every saturday a progesterone shot) and I dont know why it gets harder every week, like I already know what to expect and that scares me beforehand :/ Progesterone is oily so I get a huge bruise everytime!!!
And to think people say I have a good hand to give shots, they always ask for me when a kid is getting one, but I am not that good on myself, LOL!!!

Journey of a bedrest: day 9
Only 12 days to go...
Today has been a hard one for me, I dont know if it is the hormones that got me on an emotional rollercoaster or what?!!
Please pray that I dont go insane until I get my ultrasound on the 10th and please pray for a strong heartbeat!
By the way the bleeding stopped since that first incident so it is not that, but being a doctor allows me to know way to much information on bad scenarios and I just can help thinking about it, we already love Baby Bear more than words can express!

Journey of a bedrest: day 8
Only 13 days to go...
I was on an ugly mood these past days, but Bayo came to visit me and made me all better again, lol, I feel like I am in high school!
Now I am looking forward to catching up with my scrapbooking :) I had all my behind photos printed out (some are from June 08', yes, I am that behind), Fonsy will bring them Dec 1st from Puerto Rico (she went home for thanksgiving and here in Dominican Republic printing over 200 pictures is expensive and walgreen does them for 0.15 cents!!) and I plan to get up to date, all 32 projects!
I dont want to have to do the baby scrapbook with some left behind things, and I have a lot of material to work with!!
So I have something to look forward to :)

Journey of a bedrest: day 6
Only 15 days to go...
Again I would rather have a weekday here! But dont worry I wont complain the whole post, ha!
Like some sugestions I've received here :) I've been reading a lot, right now I am finishing the memory keeper's daughter, so far I like the book, it is not my type of book, but it is a great novel anyways.
I'm waiting for my What to expect when you are expecting book, I've read both really good and really bad reviews for it, I am basically just buying, reading it for fun/tradition, any thoughs on the book if you have read it?
Any good book sugestion or webpages to download good books?

Journey of a bedrest: day 5
Only 16 days to go...
Today has been a really long one, I am actually prefering weekdays instead of weekends here on bedrest land :/ there is more on tv on weekdays or at least they have a schedule!
Internet proves to be good/bad for me, it can calm me down or put me on my nerves LOL!!!
Bayo calls several times a day to ask for baby bear, not me, he specifically ask for baby bear (he uses a diferent nickname), wich I think is the cutest thing, he really is excited!
Things are going so well that I am beginning to think I dont really need to be in bed, but dont worry I will stay here until I get my dr's approval :)

Here I am on my bed (of course) trying out my new camera!!!! cause look at what I got in the mail today: 
My Baby Be Mine Maternity Band, to help expand my pre pregnancy pants, and I am really happy with the quality of the fabric!
I know my belly is not that big yet but I couldnt help getting it :) plus who knows when it will start growing, gotta be prepared!
My brand new Coolpix L20 camera from Nikon, it is still a point and shoot and we DO want a better camera, but for now this will work great!
And finally my Belly Book, it is a great pregnancy journal, just for the belly, I love it and already started filling it in!
So today is actually an exciting day here at bedrest land, and we are happy to report ZERO bleeding since the first scary episode :) Couldnt be happier!

Journey of a bedrest: day 2
Only 19 days to go...
Asking people for food is harder than you would have though, I hate feeling like I am bossing around :/ and dont have a clue what I want! I wish they would just tell me I'll make this for you :) and it's only day 2, lol ohhh what a journey!!
I've been sleeping on a weird schedule wish I dont want to get used to because it will be hard to break once I go back to work!
I also discovered that 98 channels on a TV are not enough channels and that people dont log into msn in the morning :/
A lot of people from Los Cacaos have called me today wich made me real happy, they said they'll be praying for us to go back soon :) and said they'll take care of Bayo while I am here; these people are so great to us!

Our Story
I started this blog to save a little story of our life together as a couple.
We met in 2000 thanks to Bayo's cousin and my best friend Fonsy, and we were also going to Med School together; but we actually started dating on Sept 1, 2004 and got married on Dec 2, 2006.
Updates on our life right now: we are studying to take the USMLE test and planning on moving to PR next year to specialize: Bayohan in Ob/Gyn and I am doing Psichiatry.
I plan to update about how we are doing every once in a while :D
