They said it is too early to scan so all they can do it blood work. They said to ring my GP in the morning to do if not they will do it.
I am not too late for implantation bleed ? I am 4 weeks 5 days . I thought that would have been sooner

Thank you @Luan82

@Hlump1980 nope not as far as I'm aware my sister tested on the day of her missed period got a positive 1-2 weeks on a Digi and had a bleed a few days after that and on and off bleeding for another few weeks after that ... found this which may help? ... Hormonal bleeding is when some women experience a light bleed at around four to eight weeks of pregnancy, or around the time their period would have been due. This can be very confusing for women who are pregnant and is the reason many women do not realise they are pregnant for a while. Again, it is totally normal

@Hlump1980 blood work is the only sure fire way to put your mind at rest as it's still so early - you should see those numbers doubling nicely every few days so you are in good hands at the doc/EPU unit 🙏🏼 keeping everything crossed for you !! Xx

@Hlump1980 congratulations I really hope you have a sticky bean... i was roughly 4weeks 3 days when they saw a mass in my tube so they can pick it up early on scans!!!

I was just thinking to myself I don’t think I have had much mucus this month I no I had quite a bit of watery mucus last week way before my peak I am concerned this may cause an issue with the little sperms I am so crampy today xx

Congratulations @Hlump1980! Def get booked in for some bloodwork to put your mind at ease but plenty of ladies have light bleeding and go on to have successful pregnancies. I had some light pink bleeding at the start of this pregnancy but all is good. Got everything crossed for you! x

Congrats @Hlump1980, definitely a good call to get to the drs and monitor bloods. Hoping you having a happy and healthy pregnancy 🤰

Do you girls think I should try and DTD again??
We have done these days so far...
Sunday cycle day 5
Tuesday cycle day 7
Saturday cycle day 11
Sunday cycle day 12

Or do you think that’s plenty peak ovulation test was Sunday cycle day 12...

Just want to have plenty of sperms for the egg lol xx

@Hlump1980 congratulations and everything crossed for the foreseeable. I have only been pregnant once but I do know many people for whom bleeding was not an issue at all. Don’t be afraid to be persistent with the doctors to get what you need.

Thank you everybody. I just don’t want it to be another ectopic and lose my other tube. I just have to wait for tomorrow and see what they say/ see or do. I will keep you posted x

Rant: my body is trolling me. My period is due today or tomorrow (I think my luteal phase may have extended a day since the ectopic) and both my resting heart rate and temperatures remain high. I feel like my period is on its way, knew that I was unlikely to get pregnant on the first go, but it is so frustrating. Too much data is a dangerous thing.

@NigellasMicrowave
Until AF is hereby you will know. Fingers crossed.
I just wish we could know we were pregnant straight from the Baby Dance and then we wouldn’t have all this waiting and second guessing of symptoms which just makes us even more stressed !! Good luck x

@Luan82 I need your advice if possible... so I have been having bad cramps since I got my peak so thought let me take an another ovulation test just to be sure there wasn’t a mix up and low and behold it’s gone to low fertility 2days after my peak happened would this mean I could still be ovulating?? I am guessing today would be classed as DPO 1 xx

@NigellasMicrowave I hope you’re ok... I am having an issues with these ovulation tests wish I had not brought the dam thing now lol xx

@Sweetbabydust1989 don't worry - the static smiley face only appears at your peak and technically you should ovulate approx the next day 24-36 hours to be exact! Its very rare for you to actually release an egg outside this time frame. So the day after your surge they usually class that as your ovulation day, and each day after that is the luteal phase (dpo), perfectly normal to be back to low fertility two days after the surge - just sit back and enjoy the emotional rollercoaster that is the 2WW!! 😉xx

@NigellasMicrowave - 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 progesterone has got so much to answer for, think I'm out this month - don't want to get my hopes up needlessly for yet another month, sore boobs totally gone today and though no sign of AF also no other symptoms whatsoever - I hate this half of the month with a passion ....between worrying about MC and Ectopic and just the devastation of yet another negative test - just wish I could switch off and forget about it xxx

@Luan82 my Clearblue app is pretty much screaming at me with the !!! And saying no more testing lol... I am not a serial tester I only do it when it tells me to but I was so worried that last month it was later than normal I had loads of flashing and this month low straight to high I think I might have dodgy cycles... I also noticed that I didn’t get much mucus more before I got my peak... so I am 1 DPO as my peak was Sunday morning oh gosh I have a long wait.. been getting slight pains where my ectopic was I really hope it’s not using that tube 🙈 how many days are you in now hun?? Xx

@Sweetbabydust1989 always get OV pains in the first few days past OV, think it's linked to old scar tissue? but very normal, I'm 11dpo today so testing tomorrow with a FRER but I'm not hopeful tbh the only thing that's different this month is that I think I've got a cyst on the ovary which ovulated hence the cramps all day yesterday 😞 xx

@Luan82 hate those cysts I had a horrible corpus one on my left ovary when I was scanned for my ectopic no wonder I why I was experiencing serve stabbing pains on that side.. it’s horrible isn’t it I really hope we have a BFP from you hun... I think it could be I also have adenomyosis so it’s really hard for me to tell what is regulated to my condition on the the Up consultant said there is no medical link that this condition causes any issues with getting pregnant.. xx

I got checked out at the EPU they said I was having a miscarriage. They took a test and said it was negative ( I had taken one on Sunday that said positive so obviously happened very fast. I need to take another test next week. It sounds awful but I am just relieved it isn’t another ectopic and they don’t have to take another tube out. Take care everyone . I am going to feel sorry for myself for a few days x

Oh I am so sorry @Hlump1980 that is truly miserable. I understand about the relief of it not being an ectopic. It is so unfair though. Please look after yourself and let us know how you are getting on.

Oh @Hlump1980 I'm so sorry, thinking of you 💐

@Hlump1980 - I'm so so sorry to read this, sending you lots of love 💕 and hugs - take care and look after yourself for the next few days xxx

AF arrived this morning bang on time - was trying not to get my hopes up but I'm devastated tbh - not sure how much longer I can keep trying naturally before admitting I'm going to need IVF ... 😞😞😞 xxx
