Scaring myself

Well, I did a wonderful job of terrifying myself today. I was looking at some of the boards on thebump.com, which is the site that's linked to thenest.com. One of the boards mentioned something about "blighted ovum". Not knowing what this was, I did the stupid thing of googling it. It turns out that it's a pregnancy where just the gestational sac is present. So, you get the positive pregnancy test, you get the symptoms of pregnancy, but eventually your body realizes there's no baby there. Once that happens, the hCG levels start to drop, and within a few weeks you will miscarriage. I just wish that we would have gotten an ultrasound at the first visit, and actually saw/heard the heartbeat. So, now I'm concerned that that's me....that I've got a blighted ovum. I know it's me just worrying without reason to, and guess what folks, should I not have a blighted ovum, then this worry will most probably continue throughout the whole pregnancy. My next appointment is December 4th, so two weeks from tomorrow. I think I'm going to hold out until then...unless I lose sleep over it, then I'll have to call and try to get in there earlier. On the plus side, I don't really feel like my symptoms are decreasing. I've been moodier than ever this week, and I'm still super-tired and sensitive to smells. Plus, I've got all sorts of aches and pains. So, keep praying for me, the olive (which is what it is roughly the size of this week), and John's sanity. :-)
