TTC after pregnancy loss - thread 15 - Christmas miracles

[TheGrumpySquirrel]

New thread!

I was wondering if anybody could give me any support with my chemical pregnancy... I had 3 BFPs Sunday, Monday, Tuesday last week. On Saturday I had a bleed, went to a&e to be given a urine test and a blood test and told I wasn't pregnant. However I then had one day of really heavy bleeding and yesterday I had a light day and now it's gone. I just wanted to know is that normal? The doctor said I wasn't pregnant, I'd done the tests wrong and it was my period but my periods last 5 days and this was late (if it was and I am like clockwork) thank you

Thought id post quick seeing nelle’s post.
I had a cp 6 years ago and right now im amidst a threatened mc.
Nelle i had that a week and a half ago (i didnt see the point in seeing a dr at that point because the test line was almost disappearing). The bleeding was really heavy with clots at first but at CD3 it started lightening up, as if it was a dodgy period. I accepted it was a cp and started my next cycle as normal. But over the next week, the hormone had increased without my knowledge and here i am with a bfp and no explanation yet as to why i bled and whether its a cp or not for sure. Ive had no bleeding since.
Im waiting for a scan appointment and test results to see if its a mc or not. So what youre going through, imo it sounds like a cp but id make doubly sure that the test stays negative before you move on.
Being on mumsnet has shown me that cp is alot more common that i thought

I don't know whether to be relieved or tearful that it's so faint now So many mixed emotions

Ftr when i first got the bleeding the test line was so faint the docs would probably have said its bfn and that i wasnt pregnant in the first place.

So sorry unicornsandrainbows

@HoneyCake86 why is it so confusing?! I will get a test tonight and try again to see. I just feel a little bit lost. No idea what to do, just thought my cycle would start again

Hello all.Im joining this thread after finally getting the all clear today from the EPU three weeks after my miscarriage started.I thought I was at 12 weeks only to find it was a missed miscarriage and the baby hadn’t grown properly,then have been through trying to let it happen naturally and two rounds of medical management before finally getting a negative test and scan today.Sorry to everyone who has been through this.

I’m feeling positive about starting to try again in the new year alongside general health kick,so it will be great to hear how everyone gets on at the same time.

Well at least I know I can move forward now x

Seem to have a small about of ewcm today. Wtf are you doing body?

@di626 how'd you get on talking to the GP today?
@NelleB sorry for what you're going through. I don't know much about CP but that doc sounds rubbish! How can you do 3 pregnancy tests wrong? I'd want to slap him. At least you can move on now and hopefully you fall again quickly.
@HoneyCake86 hope you get your scan quickly and sort out what's happening.
@Finefineanddandy im sorry you've gone through this too. Hopefully we can all move in the New Year with success!
I went back to work today and thought I was doing ok until the third person asked if I was alright after being off. I broke down and basically cried for the next 2 hours. Hopefully that was the hardest bit and I am not a constant sobbing mess from now on!

@Boboelephant not very helpful at all, got bloods taken but im fearful they wont even show hcg because in space of 2 hours my line was quite strong to disappearing altogether. Ive requested a different doctor to call me in morning who ive heard is more helpful to point me in the right direction if nothing else ... just so frustrating om top of gutting. Thanks for asking xx

Thanks bobo. Not heard yet, we are waiting for the bloods result which should be tomorrow or thurs latest. I did another frer at the same time today as yesterdays frer, and its gone fainter. So im not feeling confident xx

Hello to all the newbies, sorry you find yourselves on this thread 😔, however everyone is lovely & all gone through the pain of loss so are very understanding xx

Oh @di626 that's rubbish! I didn't think the hcg would drop so quickly though. It's really gutting. I hope the better doc calls tomorrow and is more helpful x
@HoneyCake86 so sorry too! Hopefully bloods will come back and all will be ok. x
@UnicornsandRainbows1 I know exactly how you feel! I did a hpt today too and the line was faint but still clear and it was very mixed emotions. Maybe the ewcm is a sign your body is gearing up for ovulation? Fingers crossed hey!

I’ve made it to 6 weeks, a whole 5 days longer than last time. I took another CB digi today and got the magic 3+ (last time it didn’t go about 1-2).

I also got all my appointments through today - booking at exactly 10 weeks and scan at 13 which is so far away. I was hoping for an early one. I’m also anxious as the scan is 5 days after my previous due date, I’d hoped it would be before (and before when my best friend is due). I had hope that my due date would be easier if I’d had my scan, but I’ll just be an even more anxious mess (if my pregnancy lasts that long).

@Boboelephant It's very mixed. I've emotionally checked out for the 3rd pregnancy (though as DH said earlier today, as soon as I get those two lines again I'll get attached even though I don't want too. Especially if the early scan is good. Hate it when he's right ). I hoping yours is negetive soon (in a nice way, if there is one). Part of me wants no second line but part of me feels like that last bit of hormones is all I have left with me right now, and soon it won't be there and it's horrible

I hope so. I thought maybe it'd turn into more bleeding or something, but nope, just some super stretchy jelly mess (sorry!!).

@voxnihili It seems like such a long way away, but I'm glad you've gotten a bit further this time, and hopefully there won't be an end

Hi all have been keeping up with you all but just took some time out, got my af 3 days after hystoroscopy in early November & me & dp just enjoyed being intimate (1st time in 5 months not having to use contraception because of rmc tests) got my period 7th December so no bfp but was awesome dtd & feeling like ourselves again!!
I’m so happy to hear all of you girls with your bfp & so sorry for all of the newbies & you other girls with your sad news 😢
It’s a year today we lost our sparkle at 8+3 mmc & the rawness & sadness is still with us both 😢
We just let off a Chinese lantern & it was such a beautiful moment seeing it rise so high in the sky & was so bright⭐️ Just our little way of remembering our little sparkle ❤️
I am due to ovulate any time now so fingers crossed for a New Years bfp!! Lots of hugs to you all ❤️❤️

Thanks for the welcome everyone, going to try and keep up with the thread. Am new to this so also trying to get my head around the acronyms so please bear with me.

I got a call from the EPU today and I need to go back and get bloods done tomorrow as my hgc was still high and they need to see a decrease to confirm my mc. It just seems like a kick in the teeth as I know its an mc

Also weirdly I feel like I am ovulating, I don't know if it's just my body playing tricks on me or me imaging things but is confusing

Is it just me or is there something there?! 12dpo

@SantaBaby1 yes there's a line! Congratulations!

Just getting ready for work ladies, will properly read through everyone's posts later. Xxx

Congratulations Santa! :)

Santa- I can see a line❤️ Lots of love & congratulations 💐

Thanks so much
Now to try to be cautiously optimistic rather than anxiety ridden...!

Congratulations Santa!

I am sat in the waiting area of EPU to get my bloods done again. Never want to come back here!
