dh and I are having a last push at ttc. we are giving it either a year or another mc before we give up (haven't told gp ) so i have decided to reopen the anti-testing thread!

Hope it goes really well at the GP's for you I found the early pregnancy unit at local hospital very helpful as well. I'd be cautious as well - if I ever get pregnant again I know I will be.

I keep looking at the cheap test on ebay and wondering how easy they are to use as well - get a stock in - which does go against the theme of this thread

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 04/04/2009 14:12

hey liskey,

im planning on seeing my gp this coming week to have it confirmed. DH is happy but we're both feeling cautious about it all.

Im sorry your DH is feeling pressured, i can imagine its not easy on either of you! I dont know what to suggest as i've not been in your position. sorry

Liskey · 04/04/2009 13:37

Hi All

that does sound promising - the scan will just show if there is a sac at 6 weeks - I had a scan last year at that time after some bleeding. Heartbeat doesn't show till week 7/8 usually.

I'm on Day 16 now but no EWCM and DH is feeling pressurized at the moment - we had an arguement about that the other day apparently I'm putting too much pressure on him.

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 04/04/2009 12:10

nope no negatives just this one positive and im reasoning it must be right as the last digi one i did said not pregnant around the same time i did the others which said pregnant?

Tried taking photos but its not very clear DH will take one when he gets home on his good camera. Just spoke to my mum we figure after this week ill be 6 weeks so should be able to have a scan by then see whats happenning!

Hows symptom spotting your end?? thanks for being here for me! xx

PistachioLemon · 04/04/2009 12:00

PS I also heard that the results on the digi ones disappear after 24 hours so you might want to take a photo of it!

PistachioLemon · 04/04/2009 11:59

I wonder whether it was just one of those early pregnancy bleeds you hear about. Mind, I don't want to get your hopes up in case that's not the case, but from everything I've read, you go back to normal very quickly after early miscarriages. Have you had any negative tests since the positive ones? Maybe one of the other ladies can help more? I'm a novice I'm afraid, but hope that helps.

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 04/04/2009 11:53

thats excatly what mine looks like on that page!?

Im thinkin surely if it was a miscarriage that bleeding then the hcp levels should be back down by now, esp as the digi one said not pregnant last time??? I am soo confused! DH and i were both sure we had conceived on Friday 13th seeing as its the same date we got married, well friday 13th that is! I'm shaking as just when i thought it was all over and accepted miscarriage i get this!

Morning Shirley, Wow!

I think the digi ones tell you the weeks since conception, whereas the docs work it out from your last period. I think you should ask your doc for a blood test to confirm.

PL x

P.S. I won't be on much today but might be on a bit later.

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 04/04/2009 11:32

guys im confused and no ones on

Just did my last test i had in the bathroom for peace of mind and it came up BFP 2-3 it was a digital test??

Now even more confused than before!!

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 04/04/2009 09:03

Hi all, Hope your all well!c
Nunnie Go for it! as many tme as you can
lemon loving the spotting so far look forward to some more!
and everyone glad things are all good for you all

Joycey whats been happening with you? What on earth is a conception cyst have you been bleeding??

I'm having a confused couple of days and when i was PG i didnt really have sore boobs just occasional burny sensations. Last couple days boobs seem bigger and fuller and quite sore, DH assumed it was hormones from the MC but seems most people stop symptoms all together immediately!? but i've stopped bleeding? Posted on MC thread and been advised to test again. I know in my heart im not PG so dont see the point in testing again iyswim.

Joycey29 · 03/04/2009 20:02

Go for it Nunnie - you never know twice, thrice...... whatever!
Feeling better today - had scan on Tues to rule at ectopic and it was ruled out but got conception cyst????
Still not sure it's all real - nothing on scan yet so got to go back! [bsad}

Anyway here's to the 2ww and lots of December babies!!

Liskey · 02/04/2009 19:24

Hi all

Hope your all ok - well done with the not testing missiek - fingers crossed for you

missiek · 02/04/2009 16:36

hiya everyone, i have resisted temptation and not tested again, going to wait now until at least saturday! Still driving myself insane with the symptom spotting, cramping was worse last night, although the bloating has gone (had a massive curry last night LOL) but now my bbs feel sore, still have lots of CM which is unusual, just dreading af arriving, have worked out previous cycles and could be any time from tomorrow.
PistachioLemon LOL yummy pizza

nunnie · 02/04/2009 16:34

Just checking

PistachioLemon · 02/04/2009 16:16

Incompetence not incontinence THANK GOD!

nunnie · 02/04/2009 16:14

How rude of me, hello ladies.

nunnie · 02/04/2009 16:14

pistacio is that incompetance or incontinence, both are a good symptom I am sure

PistachioLemon · 02/04/2009 13:23

Okay, this will make you laugh... symptom spotting on DPO4...

  1. Fecking incompetence yesterday
  2. Sore tummy
  3. Nausea
  4. Tiredness

Wait, no scratch 2,3 and 4... just realised they are due to the massive American Hot PIZZA I had last night! Stupid, stupid stupid!

iateallthecreameggsyummy · 02/04/2009 12:51
