I have my fx firmly for you 88.

Yay for DP hiding your IC pog. I'm impressed, clever man! Fx for you too.

Good to see you miss. How are you doing?

Pogmella · 24/05/2015 11:16

Thanks all- ages ago I explained when I was planning to test and how everyone's advice was to wait it out, he didn't say much but turns out he does listen!

Cocktail wise I like an espresso martini with a bit of cocoa powder on top- grown up red bull!

Today's (possibly imaginary/pmt) symptoms include very heavy sleep, heavy tender boobs and a lot of cm... Also cried at a don't tell the bride repeat...

Fx for everyone!

So, after more spotting and pain I spent 7 hrs in hospital yday :( they did my hcg levels which were 1900 I don't know if that's OK or not :( been in this morning for an early scan and they could see some cells? But could not detect a pregnancy, I'm just in bits :( they couldn't say whether it was ectopic or not :( Ive got to go back again tomorrow :( I hate life right now, I need a good slap I think....

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 11:51

Brooke sorry to ask this but how many weeks are you? 5 weeks?

Brooke113 · 24/05/2015 12:02

From lmp 4w6d. dizzy

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 12:22

Ok, so don't worry then. I've just a had a look online and hcg levels of 1900 are perfectly normal at or just before 5 weeks. So your levels are absolutely fine. It would be extremely difficult for them to see anything at this early stage. Even early scans don't detect preg before 6 weeks. Hang in there, we're all rooting for you and fx everything turns out well.

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 12:26

I know it's easy to say don't worry and of course you will until you're reassured of everything but it all looks positive at this stage and nothing whatsoever to indicate otherwise. We're all here for you

Brooke113 · 24/05/2015 12:29

Thanks dizzy I've googled so much over the last couple of days, I've read that they should be able to see a tiny dot in it about the size of a sesame seed, and they couldn't see anything, that's what's stressing me out, and that tomorrow they'll know more by my hcg results :(

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 12:34

Hopefully it will be all good news and your hcg levels will be on the rise. Everything I've read indicates it would be difficult to see anything and that's also the reason why even private early scans aren't offered until at least 6 weeks. I hope today passes quickly for you.

Brooke113 · 24/05/2015 12:52

Thanks hun, the nurse said they want to see a rise of at least 60% tomorrow, from 1900 what is that? I've been trying to work it out but I'm just so tired and stressed, been up since 3:45 as I couldn't sleep stressing x

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 13:33

Don't stress yourself out over the numbers brooke it will only add to your anxiety. Try to get some rest and I hope all goes well tomorrow.

MissMartin1992 · 24/05/2015 13:46

Dizzy - I'm good thanks Smile x.. i had a bit of a scare the other day as i had a bleed/spotting but it only lasted about 1hr and it was when my af would have been due so relatively normal.. i can't get into my dr's until the 11th of june so by that point ill should be 7w1d ( according to my bc app) so it still dosent feel real.. i have no M.Sickness or anything just extremly sore nips haha! how are you doing? ? Grin

MissMartin1992 · 24/05/2015 13:48

Brooke - 3040 is a 60% increase xx

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 13:53

It's great that you're doing so well miss. Once you start your appointments it will start to sink in more. I'm ok have started acupuncture and Chinese herbs. Posted my chart on the other bus and think I ovulated yesterday so now for the 2ww!!!

MissMartin1992 · 24/05/2015 15:36

Dizzy Awww thats great! what does acupuncture do? ? I've never heard of that... definitely have my fx for you!! Goodluck!!!! x

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 16:16

Miss I'm having acu for fertility issues. I have low progesterone and low ovation reserve. Acu can help balance the hormones and the herbs can improve egg quality. The lady has a specialist interest in fertility.

MissMartin1992 · 24/05/2015 16:41

oh wow! that's pretty coolGrin now ur in the 2ww how long till ur bfp/af due???

DizzyMerry · 24/05/2015 17:15

I'm not actually sure I'm in the tww yet miss. Got another flashing smiley today and quite a lot of ewcm so will carry on dtd. My cycle has changed this month as I usually ov on cd13 and I'm cd15 today so will check my dates as soon as ov is confirmed.

nightandthelight · 24/05/2015 17:33

Great to hear that all is going well miiss :)

Sounds like your levels are good Brooke and I thought they couldn't see anything on scans before six weeks so hcg levels were what you had to go on! Really hope that you do see something soon to reassure you :)

broo I'll be rooting for you! :)

Brooke113 · 24/05/2015 20:04

Thanks plum if they rise by What they'd like to see, I could still miscarry couldn't I? Ttc was never this hard the first and second time, pregnancy was a breeze (sighs)

Sarah563 · 24/05/2015 20:06

I've finally found the second half of this bus - was worried for about 30mins that I couldn't find you all. Phew-ey.

I was away for my AF (boo-hiss), and I'm now CD9 and temping on Fertility Friend, can't wait for the approaching Ovulation! Hopefully this month I will ovulate (I had no smiley faces last month on pee sticks - so presumed ovulation just didn't happen for me!) Brew

Sarah563 · 24/05/2015 20:19
