That's why I wasn't for sure if it's something I should share with them now or in a few weeks when I know for sure from the ultrasound.
I can understand how the fear is overshadowing any potential excitement. I hope that once you get that ultrasound, you can relax and feel more excited than afraid.

Thank you HazelGirl. Right now I'm just trying to get through to Tuesday when I'll have a repeat blood draw to rule out a possible ectopic. Then I will go from there.

Congratulations!

Would you share this with your T?

Hope you find your T's supportive too
That was my first reaction was to call my T and ask for an emergency session, but I see 1 of them on Tuesday night and I already have a hard enough time finding child care at the moment.

I'm still working on in my head whether or not to call tomorrow and let my main T know or wait until Wednesday evening since I'll have the blood test back. That will give me more of an answer. I guess everyone is right though, that no matter the outcome, I'm going to need support through this.

Yeah, I think it's important to let your T know. Because you will want to tell her if everything is good, and you will want to tell her if it's all bad. It's her job to be there for you, even if the news is bad.

I only tell the woman what I think is pertinent to why I see a therapist. So as a general approach I try to figure out info is related to that or not. Plus I do not find them supportive so that would never figure in to my decision making.

But if you do find therapists supportive and it is related to why you see a therapist, then it might be useful.
I wish you well and hope you get good news from the blood test.

I tried calling my main T today, and just got his voicemail. I didn't want to say "Hey I'm pregnant on a voice message" so I just said I wanted to quickly check in about a few things that had happened over the week before our session on Wednesday. He didn't call back which was kind of upsetting.

I have group therapy in the morning, but I don't know if I'll mention it to that T. I'll likely mention it to my T at my evening session. I should know more if about the pregnancy by Wednesday morning, so that might depict what my mood will be at my session.
Thanks for this!

Most definitely. Probably wouldn't even be able to wait until the next session and would call or text her.

Thank you.

My T finally called me back after I got out of group today...I'm not sure if it's because he got my message or the group T gave him a heads up. They both seemed like they will be supportive no matter what way it goes. I just feel stupid now for having him call me to tell him that, but he did recognize that I just needed the support and said we'll talk more about it tomorrow.
Thanks for this!
