You can all ignore my previous post. I did call the doctor's office this morning and had to go in for an ultrasound. The ultrasound went well! I saw the heartbeat and yolk sak. I think it measured 2 or 4mm??? It was in the uterus so they were able to rule out an ectopic, which they were scared of. I have a cyst on my right ovary, but that's okay. I talked to the doctor (no exam) and he said that ~sometimes~ this can happen. He's had a few patients complain of the same thing. Call if more bothers. He said to just sit quiet and rest today. I asked about working tonight and he said it's up to me. So unless I have more cramps like that one, I guess I'll work tonight. I've only had minor cramping since this morning's episode and no bleeding. Next appointment remains the same on Nov. 30th.
