I am pleased you finally have your af Buffy - it must be quite a relief! I expect this is your body just settling back into normal after your mc - maybe you will become more regular from now on. I hope you are doing okay. Love and best wishes. xxx Look out for a thread too cheer you up!!! Grin

update for you.felt really crappy all day yesterday.was off to bed and took my sample bottle up with me for this morning.went to the loo before going to bed,and af had finally come!!bloody typical.ive been shitting myself all weekend about the possibility of it being an ectopic,and the night before im due to take my sample in,af comes!
i am sooooo relieved,just dont understand why im 2 months late.probably is just down to mc in march.
just wanted to say thank you to everyone for all your support over the last few days.

The first person you speak to you is just a receptionist type so nos nothing about the medical side iyswim...

buffythenappyslayer · 07/05/2006 13:24

i just thought it was a waste of their time tbh!i kept saying i didnt need to speak to a nurse,my protesting probably translated to them that i was in need of a home visit!!!

I had an ectopic pg scare a while ago - went to A&E due to brown bleeding. They kept me and did a scan the next morning. I am surprised that the doc has let you go home if that is what they think it is... From what I could work out epg need to be sorted out pretty quickly.

cece · 07/05/2006 13:22

buffy,

that is their system - they always get a nurse to phone you back! So don't worry about that..

buffythenappyslayer · 07/05/2006 13:14

omg hopecat!why are some people like this?ive still not text my 'ex' friend as she will now be known!started having pains in tum today,but nothing too bad as yet.im just really hopeing that it isnt an ectopic.still feeling very sick but think thast down to worrying.taking wee sample in tomorrow,and have decided to do another pg test next friday,as ive been told the results will usually take a week.(rang nhs direct up!!they are a bunch of scare mungers aswell.told them what gp had said and they got a nurse to ring me back!told them i only wanted to know how long to wait before ringing for results!she started goign on asking if id had a headache,told her yes and she said i should go to the hospital straight away!didnt go,just going to wait to do wee test.think the headaches are just down to stress and worry tbh.

Well, while we're quoting 'shitty things to say' stories, when my SIL (who is 5 years younger than me) had her first, she told me and DH not to have a baby too soon (although she knows DH is infertile) so that 'we wouldn't take attention away from her baby', and then offered to carry a baby for me, although there is nothing wrong with me!

Fume, fume, fume.

Debbsy · 06/05/2006 18:10

Buffy so sorry fwiw about your friend what a cow i wuld avoid her completley.Dont worry about support we will all fully support you on here.
((((((((hugs)))))))))))

SparklyGothKat · 06/05/2006 17:46

what a nasty text :( sorry to hear your news, buffy. FWIW I was pregnant at the same time as my aunt (who is 4 years younger than me) we were due on the same day. She accussed me of (in her words) 'pissing on her fireworks!!' and she even phoned the hospital after I had dd2 7 weeks premature and called me a 'cow' for having my baby before her... people are so odd...

Hopecat · 06/05/2006 17:08

Got my fingers crossed for you buffy: really hope you're PG!

I've got a 'complicated' BF too. You remember all the times you've had, but sometimes you have to wonder if its worth it, dontcha?

buffythenappyslayer · 06/05/2006 16:29

thanks hopecat,i dont know what id do without mn tbh!!dh has said to ignore her.when i got pg with the last one,she stopped talking to me until after id had her.she said she was ttc and didnt want me rubbing her nose in it!dh reckons that because shes expecting now,its a case of no one else is allowed to be either.im not replying to her.she'll prob text me before i do her.just cant believe how nasty she has been.when she had her ectopics i was the first one there for her.i know i dont know for definate yet what is going on with me,but if it is ectopic,i jsut hope she wont carry on being like this.im really hoping it isnt,and because the gp said to watch for any pain or brown bleeding,my eyes are out on stalks!had some pains today,but none that have lasted,just like ive pulled something.dh reckons i am pg and that everything will turn out ok,he said maybe i got pg in the last couple of weeks and it wont show up yet.but that doesnt explain why ive had no af since march!just have to keep my fingers crossed until next week.how long do pee samples usually take to get the results back?im taking it in on monday.might do another home test next weekend if still not got the results back.am going to be a complete nervous wreck next week waiting!

Buffy: if it were me I don't think I'd reply at all. Maybe leave it a few days, then if she hasn't got in touch, send her a text asking if she wants to get some stuff off her chest, and that if she does could she do it when you're not feeling so raw?

It's a weird response from her, which probably means she's got some other issues she hasn't brought up with you before.

Friendships get more complicated the longer they last, don't they?

Sorry this friend wasn't there when you needed her. Keep leaning on MN for now! Smile

buffythenappyslayer · 06/05/2006 15:22

i just dont want to reply because i know i'll get too upset.weve been friends since primary school,and i never thought shed be like this with me,not after all these yeasr

I'm gobsmacked... I'd reply...." can't believe you just wrote such an insensitive text, you should'nt have bothered!"

buffythenappyslayer · 06/05/2006 15:17

hi everyone.feeling abit better today,at least ive got rid of my headache!sent my so called friend a text cos shes had ectopics and coldnt believe her response!heres what she said,word for word
'got your msg earlier and had to think what to say.really its your own fault,you shouldve got snipped when you had alyssa.shudnt think its ectopic,youve got no history of prev ectopics.cant believe you,dont see why you want more kids anyway'
im really shocked and angry at what shes said.just never thought she would be like that.shes expecting at the mo and has already got kids,so i thought she wouldve been more supportive.i never text her back,and dont intend to.is it just me being abit oversensitive?

Piffle · 05/05/2006 19:29

Buffy :( So sorry to read this.
FWIW I had an ectopic which ruptured and I tested + on a shop test day af was due and had ectopic the day after so very early. So I am hoping you are in the clear xx
I hope you can sort out what has caused this long and strange cycle for you if not pregnancy.
I was so hoping this would be it for you honey xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Debbsy · 05/05/2006 18:22

so sorry buffy :(

Tutter · 05/05/2006 17:35

so sorry buffy. i had an ectopic three years ago. the symptoms you should be aware of include shoulder pain, abdo pain, and bleeding (usually brown and watery, but not necessarily - mine was bright red then stopped altogether).

i did get a +ive HPT, as did the vast majority of other ladies who've had eps - because the pg hormone is there, just not rising as it should.

as silverfrog says, a urine sample will only confirm or otherwise a pregnancy. in order to diagnose an ectopic they will normally take bloods to check the level of bHcg - and then again to see how it has risen. then they'll scan you.

good luck x

buffythenappyslayer · 05/05/2006 15:47

hi everyone.doctor didnt say its definalty an ectopic,just she thought it might be as i have alot of pg symptoms,and especially as i have had no af now since march 10th.she said that shop pg tests dont always show up results if its ectopic.and thats why she wants to send my wee off to the lab.think shes not rushing into anything is because im not showing any ectopic symptoms (dont know what they are tbh but she said if i get any brown bleeding and/or really bad pain,to go straight to the hospital)just wish i didnt have to wait the weekend to take in my wee in.am going to throw myself into my coursework this weekend and try to take my mind off everything and just hope no af is down to mc and bf!tahnk you everyone,i dont have anyone else i can talk to about it so i really appreciate all your advice.

Buffy: sorry to hear your rotten news. Sad Was waiting for your news on the new June thread, but decided to check out the mad pregnant man title, and you're here!

Was the Dr pretty sure it was an ectopic?

I reckon if you've managed to give birth to 5 successfuly, you'll definitely manage to have another one. Your body probably just needs some recovery time from the m/c.

Can you get DH to look after the littluns while you have a glass of wine in the bath?

golds · 05/05/2006 13:21

I have had a ectopic too, as Silverfrog has said, she really should have done a blood test far better than a urine. I hope its not one, if you have any questions feel free to ask me too
