Almost normal

Lab results are in from the final set of bloodwork I had done last week.

Everything came back normal.  No clotting issues.  No answers. 

The only thing that came back is that I have 1 copy of the MTHFR mutation, which my nurse tells me can't be the cause of our miscarriages.  I need to be on a higher dose of Folic Acid during pregnancy, but that's it.  She also said I am at a higher risk for coronary heart disease and need to have one more blood test done to rule out an issue there.  Isn't that just peachy?  No answers about our miscarriages and I might have a heart issue in the future!

Going to start on the folic acid now, even though we aren't in treatment.  We weren't in treatment this spring/summer when I got pregnant. One just never knows with these things, right? 

We are 110% committed to moving forward on the adoption path.  I have mixed emotions about these results, however.  I was really hoping to finally have some answers and some closure about the past 11 years.  But maybe having no answer is a type of closure after all?  There is literally nothing more to test for with CC.RM.  While I realize some people have gone down the immune path, that isn't for us at this time.

So now I am scared that I will once again get pregnant and have to endure yet another miscarriage.  Asked Chris if he would consider birth control.  He said no, and I can't say I'd really do it either.  I mean there are miracles all the time, right?

It's time to put all of the energy into our adoption now.  We're homestudy approved.  We just need to find our perfect match.  She has to be out there somewhere, right?  Someone who wants two parents like us?

Please let us finally find our missing piece.
