Indent or squinter after an ectopic

Eek so what do you think?
Is it an indent or an early bfp?
It's only 3 hours wee hold and I'm roughly 11dpo. It's our first attempt after an ectopic recently. Any thoughts appreciated!

@Intrigued2020

I can see a line *@wavecatcher*! congratulations! Can I ask how long it’s been since your ectopic and did you lose a tube? Will you call the EPU direct to book a appointment? I had a ectopic pregnancy in October which led to losing my tube so I like to hear other peoples stories in the same boat! You are making me feel more positive for the future 🤗🤗
Hi, I had the methotrexate injection for the pregnancy. It's not known but apparently it causes tubal damage my consultant told me so it's as if I have only one tube now. It happened in January and we had to wait 3 months before trying as the drug can cause side effects or damage a new pregnancy. I feel pretty anxious about it now as I know there is an increased chance for an another ectopic. Have you started trying again? Yes I've been told to call UPU directly to arrange a scan at 6 weeks. Really hoping I get that far 🤞🏻

@nellly

That's a nice pink line I would definitely take it as a positive!
Thank you

@MrsA2015

I can definitely see that! Both my positives looked like that. My 2nd is 8mo now Grin
Thank you 🤞🏻

@wavecatcher - thank you for sharing your experience! I am wishing you all the best for your scan! You got pregnant really quick after so that is amazing 😍😍 we started trying again in January as I wanted to wait a few months to recover from the surgery etc but nothing has happened yet 😩😩 I’m 3 dpo now so I’m crossing my fingers for success 🙏

@wavecatcher &@Intrigued2020 I had an ectopic pregnancy in December 2018, I luckily didn't lose a tube but instead had the injection. We started trying again just over 6 months later, I now have a DD.

I know it's a terrifying time & causes worry when TTC again but don't lose hope. Sending lots of good wishes your way Smile

Intrigued2020 · 30/04/2021 20:12

Thank you @PrincessConsuela12 for sharing your story. It definitely makes me feel better hearing other people’s experiences 😘🤗🤗

PrincessConsuela12 · 30/04/2021 20:16

I'm pleased @Intrigued2020, I didn't want it to come across as boasting / make anyone TTC feel bad, I just wanted to let you know that I know there is so much worry but it doesn't mean that because it's happened once it'll definitely happen again Smile

Intrigued2020 · 30/04/2021 20:20

@PrincessConsuela12 - No you definitely didn’t sound like that! It’s great to hear success stories so I appreciate the fact you posted it 🤗 I’m not feeling too negative about it but it’s taking longer than I thought 😂😂 I have a long cycle as well which doesn’t help so I always seem to be waiting for ages 🙈 hopefully this is the month 🙏 xx

PrincessConsuela12 · 30/04/2021 21:03

That's good @Intrigued2020 you never know how things can come across online 🙈
That's so frustrating, I have a short one but it seemed to drag on so you have my sympathies Grin

Yes we did catch quick but if it sticks I'm not sure. Trying to be positive but I found my ectopic a really hard and drawn out experience. I'm too anxious to be excited yet as it's such early days. I'm going to sleep praying for a darker line progression and some symptoms in the next few days. Sending you positive vibes, have you tried SMEP or any different supplements to help TTC?

@wavecatcher - hopefully it does stick! I know a few people that have had a ectopic and then gone on to have several children so that’s keeping me going 🤗 I totally get the anxiety! You think you would feel calmer once you have a positive test but I think I won’t feel calm until I have seen the little bean in the right location 👌 Thanks for your positive vibes! We have DTD every other day for the past 2 weeks and I have been taking folic acid for around 2 months. I think I ovulated on Tuesday but my temp hasn’t increased so I’m not really if it has happened or not :/ It’s so annoying 😩
