Who have I missed??

[quote whambam89]@kirinm hopefully it's implantation cramps! You've done really well not to test already 😂[/quote]
Hmmm I don't know. They feel very much like AF but actually more painful. I had to go to Boots to pick up a prescription so I grabbed some tests so I'll test tomorrow. If the RHR means anything a test would be positive I guess.

How are you doing? Have you tested again?

@kirinm everything crossed for you!

I've tested this evening, been in a bit of denial the last couple of days and never got round to ordering any better tests but my boobs have been more sore today, and had some pink discharge which is really unusual for me by CD6 (only happened when I had the ectopic).. definitely darker again but not dark enough to be viable 😭 I'm either 16dpo based on when I think I ovulated or 13dpo based on when I would usually ovulate. I still don't want to admit that there's a line there because I'm not sure how I'll even cope going through the last year again 😭

You definitely need to get your levels checked. Even though the line is faint. What was your ectopic like? How was it treated?

Clearer picture

@kirinm so with my ectopic I got a very faint positive the day my period was due then a week later still having symptoms I got a darker positive. It was an ovarian ectopic. My HCG levels were low but not rising as they should, it was treated with methotrexate as luckily I was persistent with the midwife and she booked me for an early scan at 6 weeks x

My OH has just gone out to get a clearblue which is definitely negative so I'm thinking (hoping) they're just dodgy tests - I'll use the other clear blue in a couple of days to double check but the easy @ home tests I've got left are being binned! Weird that they seem to have got progressively darker though 🤷🏻‍♀️ and slightly concerned that my boobs are still hurting and I'm spotting but will keep an eye on that x

@whambam89 I’m pretty sure my ic was super faint until quite late on. My frer wasn’t even as dark as I’d seen others. I was positive mine wasn’t viable.

I’m not saying you aren’t justified with how you’re feeling, but EPU told me that line progression is want something to use as a pregnancy checker.

Absolutely here for a hand hold regardless.

@sansa87 thank you ❤️❤️

BFN for me. So the increase in RHR doesn't mean anything. I'm annoyed that I'm having such awful cramps and nausea during the TWW.

Oh @whambam89 what a head wobbler - maybe check in with your GP next week to see if you can find out what’s going on?

@kirinm Have you tested today?

@kirinm Oops we posted at the same time! Sorry for the BFN x

It's still going up. I don't know why as I'm not feeling unwell. 🤷🏻‍♀️

@kirinm sorry for the BFN - do you usually keep track of your RHR? Guessing this is unusual for this point in your cycle? X

@MrsB2019x if it's the tests I'll be fuming! I'm going to test again mid week and go from there x

[quote whambam89]@kirinm sorry for the BFN - do you usually keep track of your RHR? Guessing this is unusual for this point in your cycle? X[/quote]
I don't track it as such but it always goes up when I'm sick. Before AF it would usually start to drop (it rises after ovulation) so it is unusual. But it started rising 5 days ago so if it was because of implantation then I'd expect a positive by now so I'm sure I'm not pregnant. Just wondering why it's rising so much.

Really thought I wouldn't be too upset this month but I'm really pissed off! If I'm not going to get pregnant the least my body could do is not make me have period pains and nausea for well over a week before AF arrives. I'm in such a bad mood too! Serious PMS this month.

@kirinm So sorry you’re struggling 💙 it’s okay to get pissed off, there’s only so many times you can shrug it off and say ‘oh well!’ Big hugs for you x

@kirinm sorry you're struggling 😭 I've said it before but finding out you're not pregnant when hormones are all over the place because of AF is the absolute worst - who even invented that idea?!

@kirinm how are you feeling today?

[quote whambam89]@kirinm how are you feeling today?[/quote]
Still pissed off but not as ragey as I was yesterday! I'm just at that 'urgh another bloody month of trying' stage. How are you doing?

@kirinm I know the feeling! It'll happen ❤️

I'm ok, haven't tested again, going to give it until Wednesday. I've had some twinges and cramps though, so I'm still not convinced it'll be negative and for a change that's what I'm hoping for!

Keep us updated @whambam89, been thinking of you 💙

@kirinm I hope you are ok 😔

Keep us posted @whambam89 🤞🏻

Big hugs, guys. ❤️

Darker test this morning, spoken to EPAU and they've advised I go to A&E due to my history as they can't fit me in until Monday x
