Waiting for CP to pass - horrible 😔

[RedIvy18]

Hi All, so I had a chemical pregnancy at 5.5 weeks a week ago now (tests went from BFP to BFN overnight) and I still haven't had a bleed, no sign of anything. I was informed by the GP that I should wait two weeks for the bleeding to start, if it doesn't arrive by a week today they will give me a tablet to move it along.

I feel like I'm in limbo at the moment, and for some reason it's really distressing me to think that it's all still in my body. I'm thinking of phoning and asking whether I can be administered the tablet tomorrow or early this week. I would really like some closure on this. I don't want to be difficult as I know that GPs are overstretched but I'm not coping well at all with waiting for it to happen, it's torturous 😔. What are your thoughts? xx

Hi @RedIvy18
Sorry to hear this, I had a chemical pregnancy on my last cycle.
It sounds really daft, but at 5.5 weeks it's a bit unusual to go from a bfp to a bfn overnight... are you sure it wasn't just one dud test?
If not then I would call the doctor again if you are feeling this way, everyone is entitled to medical care.
Lots of love to you xxx

Sorry just to add... it might be worth getting some bloods done to check your hcg levels are decreasing xxx

Hi @jadeypies thanks for your response and I'm so sorry to hear about your loss ❤.
Yep it literally just went from multiple faint BFPs on Sat night (inc a cb digital stating 1-2 weeks) to multiple BFNs early Sunday morning..very sudden. They didn't do bloods at the GP or the EPU on Monday but urine tests came back negative.
I will ring them tomorrow as all this waiting is driving me crazy. I wish that the bleed had happened straight away, feels like a no man's land at the moment. Wishing you all the best in this new cycle xxx

I'm so sorry you're going through this. It took me 12 days to bleed which happened earlier this week. I was like you feeling really impatient and uncomfortable everything was still in my body. I know the wait being in limbo is hard xx
