Old birds wanna join the coop???

OMG Sebsmummy - I can't believe he said that - any bloody line is a line FGS!!! What is wrong with these GPs????!!!

Good on you for going off to the hospital. It's just not worth the risk hun.

It's been a very strange month on here...

I'm 1/2DPO now (think I OVd Saturday or yesterday) but only managed to DTD 3 times, CD9, CD11 and CD13.

So into the 2ww now. Not hopeful (although I've given up being hopeful over the last few months) so I'm trying to focus on DD's birthday party at the beginning of June and mine at the end of June.

Waves to Ginger!!

I have an update. My GP days in not pregnant. He did a test on a teaspoon of wee I managed to squeeze out and because the line was not as strong as the control he has said it ain't so. I did have a little look and I could see a faint line developing, do I don't think he is right. Maybe half right. I think it might have been a chemical and my body is just clinging into the hormone.

So I'm off to the hospital to have a blood test done and once again I feel like a silly cow as my GPs face was all

Excuse the errors, iPhone fail! X

That's rubbish seb my gp was v good and referred me straight there. My psin was one suded and terrible back pain too. Hope I haven't alarmed you just want to ensure all is ok. If kegirl hadn't advised me to test and told her story, if still be sitting at home wondering why I was in pain mid cycle x

I would wait and see what your GP says today. They need to do blood tests first. Are you in any pain? At the first sign of pain, take yourself to A&E, they will HAVE to see you then.

I am thinking if my GP won't refer me I should pay for a private scan.

Sebsmummy, some of them really just don't get it...

On tranquil, I've just text you hun. I'm so so sorry that it has ended in this way.

Be kind to yourself and give yourself time to heal. xxxxx

Sebsmummy, I hope your appointment goes OK with the GP today. They will struggle to understand (kept telling me that I'd just got my dates wrong when I tried to tell them that I didn't get my BFP until AFTER my period), but please try and make them listen. Good luck. xx

Patch, welcome to our group. Sorry that you've joined us at a rather sad time but bear with us. Tell us a bit about yourself.

tranquility ((hugs)) xxx

Just to update. I have had a 20 minute conversation with my alternative local hospital re. my symptoms and they are unconcerned and recommended i take Paracetamol!

Oh Tranquil, I'm so sorry to hear your news. Take good care of yourself

Oh Tranquility i am devastated for you

My tests are pretty apparent still so i am not taking any chances, particularly since our stories are so similar. My early scanning unit won't accept self-referrals - ive just checked, so i have a GP appointment at 11.20 and am praying they take me seriously. Ive just cried all over my partner and Mother so im sure i will get in there and bawl.

How are things progressing for you Sebsmummy?

Hi Virginia, Viperama and Patch welcome to the madness!

So so sorry to hear that Tranquility I don't know what to say. xx

Oh Tranquility that's awful news. I'm really sorry.

Hope you get well soon and can go home and make a full recovery.

Hi I'm in hospital, had emergency surgery tonight as my baby was ectopic. :(

kegirl thank you particularly for all your advice over the past few days, you potentially saved my life as I would've had no idea I was pregnant. So thank you so much. Thanks to everyone else for thinking about me and wishing me well. With barely anyone IRL knowing, you've been a great support.

sebsmummy not wanting to worry you and I hope you're ok now but please get yourself checked out, just in case. I went to hospital at 12.30 yesterday, was diagnosed as ruptured ectopic at about 5.30 and operated in at 7.30. Xx

Hi all,

I'm over the 35 mark, can I join? Feeling very fed up ttc for ages.

Encouraging news Tranquility fingers crossed for you.

Ginger - hope the bitch didn't catch you.

I reckon I am 10dpo today. I have had zero symptoms or twinges. Not even sore boobs, which I normally have by now. If anything my boobs feel smaller, rather than fuller. Beyond hopeless!

Just updating to say ICs are no stronger today. Infact they've stayed pretty much exactly the same for the last five days. So I'm confident it's the tail end of a chemical and it should disappear from my system within a week hopefully.

Tranquility wishing you loads and loads if luck for your blood tests. Hope they come back positive and show you are douing as you should be xxxc

Hi viper and welcome!!! We are a friendly bunch so feel free to natter away x

Hi ladies, I'm 38 and trying for 5 months so don't strictly meet 1 year criteria. Can I join anyway pretty please?

Sebsmummy, this is very similar to the situation that tranquility is in and that I had two years ago. You have to get bloods taken, it's the only way you will find out what is going on. If you're not bleeding or in pain you are ok for now. But if you get any one-sided pain, make sure you go to a&e.

Mine did unfortunately end in mc after a couple of weeks of spotting and loads of blood tests, but that doesn't mean yours will.

How weird that you and tranquility are going through the same thing!!!!
