AF due around 9th Feb - been feeling sick for a week. No signs (tender breasts, bloatness...) that AF is coming, tested today as it's around 2-3 or so days before AF is due - and test was negative. The way I'm feeling in myself - already gone off coffee, feel sick, some foods just not nice anymore etc. - I was convinced I was pg - could the test be positive in a few days or does it mean if I didn't test positive now, I won't in a few days either.
The test was a Boots one btw. (£6.99 for pack of 2)

Thanks, but I'm not sure what I'd like the test to say. I'm kond of hoping for a negative result, as after beelding etc. I don't want to worry about the rest of pg. Bleeding can never be a brilliant sign - especially if it's not just implantation. I'm quite a worry guts anyway and with the stitch coming up at 13 weeks of pg, I'm worried enough

Well, haven't tested yet - pg tests I bought on ebay haven't arrived, presumably lost in the post. Lady will be resending them for me today but I will probably be going to Savers this afternoon, when I go to return some dvds to Blockbusters, and get some tests anyway, as I've waited longer than I wanted to. I'm feeling fine though, feeling sicky stopped when the bleeding stopped. GP is convinced it was a very early m/c but wants me to do a test anyway. I've never had m/c so early, so i don't really know how I'm supposed to be feeling physicaly, but apart from 2 day headache, I feel ok.

This is now getting more and more strange - 2 days into it - bleeding has stopped. My AF's are usually 4-5 days. I will have to test tomorrow or next day and see what happens - if GP is right, it should be neg. but I'm wondering what's happening...

I had an ectopic 2 days after af due date
Had small bornw discharge, no pain (6pm)
By 4am the next morning I was in surgery 2 hrs away from dying with massive internal bleeding
While it most likely isn;t anything serious it pays to be aware of how quickly things can change so be alert!
A quick bloodtest is all it takes to identify an ectopic type pregnancy...

RubyMummy · 11/02/2006 13:49

I wish someone had told me about the niggling pains being common - I spent seven hours in A&E at 6 weeks pregnant sobbing thinking it was an ectopic. But no, very normal and perfectly beautiful dd 8 mths later

Good Luck MrsWood glad gp was good with you.

teacups · 10/02/2006 18:56

Good to hear you are ok mrswood...and sorry about the bleeding. Enjoy your birthday tomorrow and try not to worry about things. Glad GP made you feel much happier. Let us know how you are getting on.

Well, bleeding is now pretty much like a period. GP saw the test and says it's def. a positive one - but I need to test in a week again to see if I could still be pg or if it was false alarm. She says chances are of either a false alarm altogether or early miscarriage which would have cleared up with this blood. I'm feeling OK so no meds needed and she seems confident it's nothing serious. I'm just grateful it's nothing bad either way. Aparently some people get false positive on or around the day of missed period as hormone levels are all over the place. Weird stuff. Will keep trying as if nothing happened, so wish us luck for next month!

As predicted NHS Direct were pretty useless - 4 people called me from when I called first and 11pm last night - the outcome? "Not sure, best to go to GPs". In their professional medical opinion. So, I'm off to GPs in 15 mins. to see what she makes of the pos. test and bleeding - which ahs increased today and now def. feels like period. Still, can't rest till I know - I hope she laughs and tells me it's just period. With my incompetent cervix and all the issues around that, I can't be dealing with more complications right now. Will post later on - maybe this evening, as it's my Birthday tomorrow so DH is taking me to cinema and for TGI's lunch after GPs.

Best of luck Mrs Wood it really could be implantation x

VeniVidiVickiQV · 09/02/2006 20:32

I got niggling pains on one side with both my pgs. Had early scans for both to be sure but it was just the corpus luteuos cyst. (normal).

Congratulations

Thanks for all the input - feel so much better now. My dh was worried in the first place so I said "I've heard you can be pg and still have periods blah blah blah...". When I later looked on google - says "Not possible"... So, I looked further and seemed to only find references of ectopic pg that can be with bleeding, so that's when I started to doubt myself and decided to phone NHS Direct to see. Now, they haven't phoned yet and I will go to GP tomorrow for her opinion and will let you all know. I'm also aware that ectopic is severe pain - my mum had it and I know she was suffering badly so i thought it's unlikely I'm having it as there is no pain - but as I said, I do have a niggle on my right side which quite honestly could be from how I'm sitting at the mo

I had an implatation bleed on day of AF and went for fertility blood test thinking it was my 13mth of BFN's. And my dd is nearly 9 mths now! Good luck - desire for a baby can make us do funny things (like testing way before the test can be positive!) My fingers are crossed for you XX
