Oh fedup, fingers crossed honey. You're in the right place. Have they measured your hcg levels? Are they consistent with how far along you are? I hope it's good news. Are you alone? Who has got your DS?

sebsmummy1 · 09/12/2013 20:40

Keep checking, not sure if no news is good news. I'm hoping so.

Me too, thinking of you fedup xx

fedupofrainydays · 09/12/2013 21:06

Hi ladies. So I've been admitted to hospital and they are monitoring me every hour. DH just gone home and DS was with grandma thank god.
So there was nothing in uterus. Hcg was 384. Which seemed too low given my bfp was 10 days ago.
I'm not having surgery unless things worsen over night.
I just want to be home with my boys. I don't think I can cope with ttc again after this... It's too heartbreaking :(

fedupofrainydays · 09/12/2013 21:11

I can't remember if I said there was random bleeding in the pelvis but couldn't locate where from... No obvious ectopic. Without that bleeding they prob would have assumed normal mc. But I've not bled enough for that so no one really knows...

PunkyBubba · 09/12/2013 21:29

I am so so sorry sweetheart. I hope you find out what is going on very soon with the bleeding, etc. Not knowing makes it so much harder when, as you say, you just want to get home to your boys. A big virtual hug from me, so upset for you to be going through this.xxx

2beornot · 09/12/2013 21:37

Fedup - big big hugs. Why are they keeping you if your not going to have surgery. Could they let you go with a checklist of stuff to keep an eye on?

I hope you get some answers.

I am so sorry you are going through this. X

fedupofrainydays · 09/12/2013 22:20

They are checking me every hour with BP, temp, wee etc. I'm still nil by mouth and on drip in case of emergency. They need to find out if the pregnancy is developing, and where. Thanks for your support ladies xx

zippygeorgebungle · 09/12/2013 23:16

fedup, I am so sorry. This sounds difficult indeed. We are all thinking of you. xxx

sebsmummy1 · 09/12/2013 23:21

Oh gosh that sounds really confusing and scary. There are no words right now I am just so glad you are in safe hands and being carefully monitored xxxx

OP posts:

2beornot · 10/12/2013 09:56

How are you feeling this morning fedup? I hope you managed to get some rest last night.

So you think the gp will start tests now or still make you wait? (I'm just trying to see some sort of silver lining, although I know for you there probably isn't any) x

fedupofrainydays · 10/12/2013 10:40

Morning. So after the worlds worst night sleep they came to see me this morning and said I can go home but back for bloods tomorrow unless I have major pain in the mean time.. If the pregnancy is developing they will scan and do camera surgery if necc to find out where it is. Most likely is I will miscarry and sort it out like that anyway.

Whatever it sucks but just relieved to be going home.

Thanks for all your support ladies, means so much xx

sebsmummy1 · 10/12/2013 11:17

Ok, so have they ruled out ectopic? I have to say I don't 100% understand all the terminology all I know it is sounds like they are monitoring you very closely and that is absolutely essential right now.

I assume they don't really have any answers either at this stage, that's why they want to see how your levels change as surely it is too early to see anything at this stage. Ie the pregnancy could be viable but they just don't know with the information they have right now?

Huge hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

PunkyBubba · 10/12/2013 13:07

I might be wrong but currently it sounds like a 'PUL' - Pregnancy of Unknown Location, which could mean ectopic, but at the same time could be just too small to see elsewhere. It is an awful thing to say, but at least if it resolving by itself you are saved having surgery, any further complications, etc.

An awful horrible situation for you Fedup I just hope you are home now and at least with your loved ones as you recover. Big hugs from me too.xx

fedupofrainydays · 10/12/2013 13:48

That's exactly what it is. They aren't bothered if hormones declining but if going up then yes, can be ectopic.
I have pain on left side but they didn't seem too bothered by it unless it was severe.

I'm now on the sofa with Jaffa cakes and tea. Looking forward to DS coming home from childcare. I need a cuddle xxx

sebsmummy1 · 10/12/2013 14:49

So at they going to do bloods every other day fed up? Xxxx

OP posts:

fedupofrainydays · 10/12/2013 15:19

Im not sure... I guess we will go on what they say tomorrow first... Xx

fedupofrainydays · 10/12/2013 19:37

I'm home. And a relief to be honest. So good to see my boys. And being very well looked after and cuddled.
How is everyone? Sorry, with all the dramatic events of the last day or so I've kind of lost track...

Thank you so much for your kind messages. Your support means a lot. I await tomorrow and next bloods tests. And looking forward to a decent sleep in my own bed tonight

Xxx

sebsmummy1 · 10/12/2013 20:32

Glad you are back home with your family xxxx

Nothing happening here. Just bding, think I ovulated today (cd 13) but not sure. 2ww on its way.

Thinking of you today fed up xxxx

PunkyBubba · 11/12/2013 10:42

Morning all,

how are you doing today Fedup? I'm hope you managed to have a good rest after making it back home. Let us know how you get on today, thinking of you.xx

Sebs I hope you weren't BDing as you typed ;-) Fingers crossed this is your month!

Well my 3rd cycle since EP started at the weekend. 6 days early which is a bit weird for me.. so a 22 day cycle, and only 10 day luteal phase. I immediately bought some vit B6, but then have spoken to a few people and apparently weird short cycles are normal post EP but they usually correct themselves quickly so going to hold off and hope this cycle is more normal. On the plus side I can start ttc a bit earlier than I thought, so next week as opposed to xmas week when I have 7 members of my family coming to stay!

Ha ha noooo. I don't think my OH would appreciate me tapping away on my phone as he's getting to critical mass lol

Well I've put on FF that I've ovulated today, cd14 as I definitely had that cold wet feeling that gets described when people are talking about ovulation. If I'm dry tomorrow I'm happy with that assumption. Means I had 5/6 days of good CM which makes me hopeful. But then I say that every month lol!!!

FF is giving me a test date of Christmas Eve!!! How totally amazing would that be if I got a BFP.

Punky. I was talking about this thread to my OH last night and about ectopic pregnancies. He asked if the remaining tube ovulated every month, ie takes over from the damaged one and I found I didn't know the answer. Does it?

OP posts:

PunkyBubba · 11/12/2013 11:32

Lol, they were saying recently that stats show something like 10% of women use their phone during sex. I think that is rubbish personally but it was in the papers and discussed on TV!

Well I still have both ovaries, which should continue to release an egg randomly as they always did. The one remaining tube still has 'receptors' which are switched on at ovulation (like a homing signal), so the egg heads towards it, whichever ovary it came from. The stats say an egg coming from the tubeless side makes it to the remaining tube about 20% of the time (though some other sites I have seen say 30%). So I have more chance if I ovulate from my left side (as it was my right tube removed), but I still have some chance every month.

sebsmummy1 · 11/12/2013 11:43

Oh that's great news . My partner works in the pharmaceutical field and says the body is very attuned to compensate, hence why he made the comment.

Apparently there is a rise of BFPs over the Xmas period because of the booze and probably more opportunity to get some loving!! Let's hope it's a lucky period for us all xxx
