Thanks lissie, I started bleeding today, sorry for asking, but do I take this as cd1? It sounds bad but I'm actually glad.

OracleInaCoracle · 22/08/2008 16:26

how are you?

ScaryHairy · 21/08/2008 07:55

I tend to agree with Lissie.
It did take a long time for my hormones to go down after my ectopic, but not too long after my CP.
I don't really see what benefit an internal is anyway in diagnosing these things.
I do think that to be on the safe side you should demand a scan and/or blood tests. Where in the country are you?

OracleInaCoracle · 20/08/2008 21:23

please dont feel guilty, a few drinks wont hurt. but im so at the way you have been dismissed.

Oops no, I did the stupid thing of taking it apart.

I felt really stoopid when I'd had the internal, it was just awful, don't think I could make a fuss again.

I have just had enough, I won't drink from now on, but I'l continue to feel guilty from the drinking I did.

OracleInaCoracle · 20/08/2008 21:13

yes, it is unlikely that you would still be getting a bfp so long after a cp. my gp tested me at 5w and gota bfn while i got a bfp at home. they need to rule out an ep. can you post a pic of the test?

Really lissie?

OracleInaCoracle · 20/08/2008 20:28

AM, call NHS direct and insist on a scan. i cant believe they didnt even do bloods!

I swear first time in my life I have ever wanted to see a bfn (was even talking to the line, like "oh your not there, your just streaky bits because the dye is passing through" I'm going effing mental lol.

Thanks scary, I already felt like a plonker the other night so I'm not going back to the Dr's.

Think I will just wait a couple of weeks and then see what happens.

OP posts:

ScaryHairy · 20/08/2008 20:20

Am not going to slap you, since I would do the same.
The BFP could well be residual hormones, but you need to see your Dr. I really wish they would scan you or do some blood tests since that would give you an answer either way.

Thanks for your messages, now somebody slap me really frigging hard. I did a stupid thing today, I had 1 pg test left and wanted to see the bfn myself, especially since the sample I gave at the hosp was really dilute (drank 2 bottles of pop out of sheer boredom, staring at the lovely blue walls) and it was farking positive.

Please somebody tell me that this is leftover hormones, that the hospital tests know better (btw it must be some kind of mechanical test, was on a little printout, v swanky).

If the bfn is to be believed, I m/c when my period was due therefore the bleeding, but why the eff am I still gettting a bfp 2 and a half weeks later? None of it makes any sense and I am mighty confused. honestly wish I had never decided to ttc.

Also if I m/c then why would I randomly have brown bleeding in the middle of my "cycle".

Sets mind to believe that she m/c last week and hence the brown bleeding and still bfp, especially as she got really rather pissed last night due to non-pg status.

AM - so sorry. This has happened twice to me. It is crap

bandanna · 19/08/2008 11:11

Very sorry, thinking of you.

ScaryHairy · 19/08/2008 09:59

Oh dear, I'm sorry.
Take care of yourself.

OracleInaCoracle · 19/08/2008 07:21

Hi went to the gynae ward today (oh what fun), after a 3 hour wait they did an internal and a pg test-bfn, unfortunately they did the internal first, lovely bit of pointless humiliation there.

Oh well at least I know now, still getting pain on my left side and bits of bleeding. Asked the dr if I would bleed heavily and he seems to think the bleeding on the 2nd was an early m/c so probably not. Wonder if Af will arrive on yime .

OP posts:

OracleInaCoracle · 18/08/2008 07:32

i know, its tough isnt it?

if you start bleeding, then straight to epu please. lie, tell them you have pain, you are further than you thought, anything. im so sorry, what a rollercoaster!

Hi lissie not too good really, have an awful virus which lovely dp has kindly shared with the whole family, and to top it off I've also started bleeding again, it's only tinted cm at the moment but I'm expecting it to get heavier

I did the freebie test with non-fmu and I only got pregnant 1-2 weeks, which kind of tipped me off, should have been 3+ weeks.

I'll see the Dr tomorrow but have zilcho hope for this time, had a bad feeling from the start, but nevermind at least in the next few day I will KNOW instead of second guessing everything and driving myself mad.

How are you lissie? It helps to talk on here, dp just buries his head in the sand tbh, don't think he realises how complex the whole ttc thing is, as far as he is concerned a bfp is bfp and a baby will result.
