Good lucky @Mistymeow, I hope everything goes well and you're able to relax Xx

@Yukka I've just had a call from the GP, hgc at 4600 so based on that and my dates from MC he has said he doubts it is a falling level, so they're sending me for a scan.

So now I've got to sit here and over analyse what that actually means. I really can't afford to get my hopes up but one of the reasons I tested in the first place was because I was having symptoms very similar to early pregnancy with DS.

What an utter clusterfuck.

@Mistymeow I understand exactly what you're saying - mumsnet does not help early pg anxiety. Very best of luck to you xxx

EPU won't scan me until I've had another set of bloods taken tomorrow, so realistically we're looking at next week by the time the results are in and they can book me in.

In the meantime I am going out of my mind. Am I pregnant? My doctor seems to think so. How did the scan show nothing? What the fuck was that bleed? And the negative test? Pfft.

@frillyfarmer - yikes. That's even more confusing. 4600 isn't a bad number but its potentially a little low for what would now be an 8 ish week pregnancy, however everyone produces different levels so comparing again someone else is useless. The bloods tomorrow will confirm if this is increasing or not.

In my opinion, you either a) do actually have retained products from the MC that weren't visible and your body thinks you're still pregnant or b) you are pregnant, whether original pregnancy and the bleed was irrelevant or a new pregnancy since the bleed.

Are you clear on when you had sex during the last few weeks? When was your last period prior to the bleed on 17th? Could your dates be out?

@mistymeow good luck with your pregnancy I hope it all goes well and you reach a point of enjoying it.

Ladies - looking at the post numbers we're up to 980, we'll need a new thread before 1000.

@frillyfarmer wow. That's a real conundrum! Could it be the bleed was a sub-chronic haematoma? I've read other ladies have had a SCH thought they'd miscarried but baby survived...I'll hope for you that that's what happened and you have a healthy sticky bean. I know it can be tough to hope yourself in case it's not good news, so let us hope on your behalf!

@Yukka I'll try and keep an eye and start a new thread when we hit 990 xxx

@Yukka I can remember having slow rising hgc with DS - I'm going to look out my notes when I get home as I had bloods at 7weeks so I can compare.

My dates could be wildly off though, I didn't chart but I got my period down to a week in dec, and I have a long cycle so likely wouldn't have ovulated until CD20/21. I went through it all with doctor earlier and basically it will be one of your two scenarios below - until I get the results of tomorrow's bloods back, we won't know if it's rising or falling!

@frillyfarmer here’s hoping for tomo, keep us posted x
