Better now than later

Today I got a call from HRC and APPARENTLY all those labs I had to do ARE good for something.  So far I have come back negative on everything bu it turns out I came back positive on Ureaplasma.  I'll be honest, I kind of freaked out a little when she told me because I have never heard of this thing before, plus it sounds weird.  Anna explained that ureaplasma is actually quite common.  About 70% of sexually active people have this.  It's a bacteria that is associated with first trimester pregnancy loss, still birth, and premature birth.  Luckily, to get rid of it, all Jared and I have to do is take an antibiotic a couple of times a day for a week.
That would have been terrible to have started everything and then find out after I had a miscarriage or something!!!  I guess these people really do know what they're doing.
