Thought the old one was getting a bit full so I'd start a new one. I'll attempt tagging as many as I can

Sorry to hear it's so inconclusive @SunnyFlover I'm keeping everything crossed it's going to be a healthy sticky bean for you! 🤞

@Lozzlepop thank you, I'm holding off until Thursday! Apart from when AF was here last and we DTD on CD 4 & 8 we've DTD every other day this month! Really no reason for it to not have worked!

Ladies, I am 90% sure it's an ectopic pregnancy. I am terrified. Today should get my bloods back, but I know that it will say - super low "10", just the same as per all my 5 daily home test that only picked up a faint line with 6,5 sensitivity.

Did anyone had this before? Can you advise..? I dint want to wait until it passes naturally as it could also cause more damage as the time goes on, I think I will ask for injection to terminate it all ASAP...

First time trying... 2 cycle in... straight to ectopic 😢 Do I need a tube cleaning..? Why is it happening, I see no other reasons for it- none of the "causes" seem to apply to me 😟 And info says I will be more prone to have them now as it happened once...😥

Kiza · 12/11/2019 07:59

@SunnyFlover I'm sorry to hear you're feeling so disheartened, as some of the other ladies have said it's so difficult to tell so early on. However it's positive they scanned you and you're bloods will be coming back so quickly. Really hope it all works out well in the end.

@Lozzlepop DP was prepared and had some images on his phone to help him out near the end 🤦🏼‍♀️😄. I've lived in Aberdeen the last 4 years (moved to Birmingham at Xmas) so completely feel you with the cold up there!! Never experienced anything like it in winter!

I'm getting myself more excited by the day as cervix has remained in medium position and has now turned soft. Plus still very wet down there, CD 26 and wishing with all my might this is our month! 🤞🏼

Anny27 · 12/11/2019 08:09

@SunnyFlover so sorry it might be ectopic but its really good you are being scanned so they can pick it up and treat quickly! It seems so unfair - i am not sure anyone here has had an ectopic (quite a few of us have had miscarriages however) but if you look at the pregnancy loss board there will be others who have experienced this xx

@kiza exciting hope this is your month :D :D

Lozzlepop · 12/11/2019 08:23

@MIW01 thats great you are holding out to test, wow thats an absolute marathon, I have everything crossed for you lovely!

@SunnyFlover what makes you think ectopic? Is there any chance that you may have ovulated later than you though and therefore not be as far along? Try not to read too much - as great as the internet is Google can be the absolute devil and you will be down a wormhole before you know it.

@Kiza haha yeah I think DP would have issues getting started as he would just be really uncomfortable in that situation.Yeah it gets bloody cold on the east coast 😂I'm from the west originally so it was an adjustment when i moved! Oh thats sounding positive, when would AF be due?

@Anny27 thinking of you today lovely, hope everything goes well.

Spoke to a friend last night, one of her friends has just had her tests and they have not come back with any answers- this is 100% my biggest fear! Hopefully I can get through to the clinic today and chase this letter up! Hope everyone has a good day!

SunnyFlover · 12/11/2019 08:32

Well, it's seems that my gestation sac is not in the uterus, but everything else is geared up for the pregnancy. I have tested 100% positive ovulating on 17 October, which makes me nearly 6 weeks. At 6 weeks it's unlikely that the sac would not be in uterus.

And little bleed on 10DPO makes me think that it was implantation. Hence I think I am 6 weeks and not less 😞

Kiza · 12/11/2019 09:12

@Lozzlepop AF is due somewhere between sat-mon, think I'll end up retesting either Friday/Saturday.
Hope you get through on the phone today!
@Anny27 hope it all goes ok for you today, how are you feeling?

whatsthecraic91 · 12/11/2019 09:37

@SunnyFlover aww I’m so sorry to hear this but you don’t know for sure yet so try to keep positive Flowers

@Anny27 hope all goes well today Flowers

Spunk into a cup 😂 just remind them that’s the only test they have to do compared to what we would have to through so count themselves lucky!! I have the fear about coming up on a year as my DP has a DS from a previous relationship so if there’s a problem it’s likely going to be me 😓

MIW01 · 12/11/2019 18:28

Sorry to hear you're having such a tough time @SunnyFlover

Hope everything goes OK today @Anny27

Keeping everything crossed for you @Kiza

Thank you @Lozzlepop

Unfortunately AF arrived in style today. I'm so gutted! In pain, horrendous back pain! moody, miserable. Im going to call the GP to get the referral rolling.

I'm also going to try a nutritional therapy programme that's run by a friend of my MIL. She claims it works for all sorts. I'm mainly doing it to improve my health and energy levels (with a welcomed side effect of fat loss) as I've been pretty under the weather with one thing and another but I mentioned about us conceiving and she told me she has had clients with fertility issues magically fall pregnant after following the programme!

I'm also taking comfort in the fact that my friend with ME was TTC for a whole year with no BFPs and fell pregnant naturally when they stopped trying.

orangeloo · 12/11/2019 18:38

@MIW01 sorry about AF have you reached a year ttc now then?
I'm on cycle 11 and have been googling a year ttc looking it up in YouTube etc for success stories. I feel like most people conceive well within a year or way more. I never really hear of many people around the year mark and I need a boost of hope haha.

Had to go to get a baby shower present in mothercare today it was horrible just wanted to get in and out as soon as poss. The envy and longing to be shopping for my own baby is crap.

whatsthecraic91 · 12/11/2019 19:13

@MIW01 so sorry AF got you

ValidUser · 12/11/2019 19:17

Started a new thread! This one's nearly full!

MIW01 · 12/11/2019 19:17

Oh sorry to hear that @orangeloo it's awful cause you know you're sposed to feel happy! I nearly burst into tears on the train the other day at the Mum and daughter opposite with her cute stuffed rabbit and teddy bear and I just ached for it to be me! 😭 We've been TTC (actively) 6 months now but due to my age (35 next September) and the cut off in our area combined with our family histories our GP is being brilliant and getting us referred asap. I just hope we get a BFP while we're waiting! I've never had a BFP and I really want to know what that feels like.

HolliePurple · 12/11/2019 21:25

Af got me on Sunday and I've been sulking since. I've just downloaded Ovia- hoping for better luck next time. 💜

Anny27 · 12/11/2019 21:26

Awwh sorry @HolliePurple :(
