I called the midwife on call and spoke to her about what was going on, and told her about my trip to the hospital.
She's doing a referral for me to the Early Pregnancy Assessment Clinic, hopefully I'll get an appointment on Monday. They will do an ultrasound and another blood test, to compare baseline HCG levels to see if the numbers are increasing as they should be. If they are the same, or have dropped, we'll know the pregnancy has ended and to expect a miscarriage.
The amount of blood has me worried - it seems like it's not possible to lose this much and still have a viable pregnancy. But stranger things have happened. I'm going to try to be positive, but it's hard.
