I forgot to tell you that I had my final blood draw three weeks ago for the molar pregnancy and I am happy to report that all is well and we were given the "all clear" to begin trying again. I am so glad to be done with the worry of the monthly tests and so glad that my awesome doctor got all of the bad cells out of there during the D&C. I'm not exactly sure if we will be trying again...our break put a lot into perspective. Our son is 5 1/2. Even if we got pregnant this first month, he would be six when we'd deliver. That's a big age difference. Besides, he's growing more and more independent each day. We question whether we want to go back and do those newborn days again when things are just starting to get easier.
Don't get me wrong, I still desperately want a sibling for my son, but we're just not sure that doing something about it is the best thing for any of us. So, we'll mull over things, enjoy the holidays, have a few drinks, and then think about this in the New Year.
For now, though, no cancer cells in me as far as we know, and this is a great Christmas present.
