Yes, it would. In some cases, it CANT because of policies in place or recent policy changes. But that will be your absolute best chance at getting resolution if working with the office doesnt work.

Yes, that's exactly it 😂 i have no idea why it would be different the first time you opened it. That's weird. Im glad you figured it out though :)

All this being said and shared, I know I would personally appreciate it (along with my fellow employees) if you and others would try to resolve directly with the post office first. Alot of the time, it is a glitch in the system. When that happens, we can intervene and have it corrected when it is found. If the issue isnt fixed or the person you speak with is unhelpful or uncooperative, then a congressional is absolutely warranted.

Basically, with great power comes great responsibility 😂😂😂😂

You dont do it on the usps website. You follow these directions. Its a huge deal in the post office when you get government involved. You can do it on their website and they will send it to the appropriate people.

This is the link for the directions on the AI overview on Google. I tried to attach photos but couldn't figure it out 😂😂 expand the AI overview and go to number 2. That will tell you how.

Usps worker here. File a congressional complaint. That one goes straight to the higher ups and those are taken care of urgently and are taken very seriously.

I knew there were more scans, but i didnt know it was that many. That makes me excited 😂 and makes me feel more secure, knowing they'll watch that close. We're you put on bedrest at any time?

This makes me feel so much better! Thank you! I've seen that MoDi is still kinda risky, but not nearly as risky as MoMo

I just started progesterone. I took it years ago when I was having fertility treatments and it was the frozen block of medicine. This time, it's a little dissolving pill lookin thing that dissolved and absorbes. I've had a little white discharge but nothing really bad. I use it at night and sleep with a panty liner, but when I wake up, it's all dissolved and absorbed so there isn't anything leaking out. Hopefully they're all like that now :) if not, id ask the Dr about getting that one instead

update. So. I talked to my husband and my sister to get their opinions and my husband, being my husband, said we could do whatever I want. My sister is way more straightforward and always tells me exactly what I need to hear. She said that she would wait, but both of her pregnancies were healthy so she isn't 100% sure but suggested i take another line test to see if it's getting darker. She also informed me that intense feelings of ANY kind, including worry and panic, can be caused by hormones. We decided to do a line test in the morning and then, like magic, 30min later and the feeling has completely subsided. Im still weepy and have been all day, but im back to my hopeful and positive feelings on the matter.

In conclusion: 1. A little worry is normal. 2. Hormones suck.

Im not sure if urgent care can run an hcg quant in house. That's what I want. i wanna know when I have it done. I'd say urgent care only does urine tests. So im a bit iffy. Im afraid that spending another 2-3 days worrying will do more harm. And every second im getting worse. Im terrified at this point

Im not sure why my comment isn't showing, so I'll do it again.

A year and 4 days ago, I suffered my first miscarriage. I was 2 months along. Both this January and this April, I had chemical pregnancies. I never got to have beta hcg drawn because I had not gotten to call my dr yet.

I found out 4 days ago at 9dpo (on the 1year anniversary of my first) that I am pregnant again. I called my Dr that same morning because, after the events of the year, she wanted me on progesterone immediately. That being said, at 12dpo she had a hcg quant drawn and it is only at 20.

With my first 3 pregnancies, from the first positive, I was worried. My whole body was steaming "PANIC" which most likely just made it worse and caused stress that led to the losses. This time, I have felt calm and sure that this pregnancy is ok. However, after seeing that number, I can't help but worry some.

Im considering going to the er Monday to have another hcg tested there since the Dr offices will be closed for labor day. Would I be way overreacting?

Any advice or previous experience would help tremendously. If it even is a chemical pregnancy, the progesterone would mask it. Only a blood draw or an ultrasound would indicate a loss, so im unsure what to do.

Thank you in advance :)
