Honestly they hundred per cent cannot tell if its ectopic from feeling your stomach at such an early stage.

I don't want to say stuff to alarm you because you know your body and what your experiencing but if you get any really strong cramps of acute pain go to accident and emergency. I did and I told them I thought it was ectopic and they took me seriously and I was right.

I had the brown bleeding that was only on wiping, pain in my groin, shooing pains, my belly felt bloated and that was because I was slowly bleeding out into my uterus. I had other strange aches and pains and that was due pressure from bleeding on nerves. This was week one. On one night in week two I was up all night with bad cramps but they subsided and I went another week. Then this one day I had like spasms inside and I couldn't urinate properly and that day I finally got a positive test and because I'd been googling I instantly knew it was ectopic and went to a and e. They scanned me and saw a mass on my left tube. I was kept day In hospital and on that day it ruptured so it was too late to save the tube. I just told you all that so you can keep an eye on how things go for you

I really hope your fine and please keep us updated because I'm honestly concerned about you xxx

Honestly I appreciate your honesty so much! I'm thank you for letting me know your experience I'm gonna keep an eye out for any of those. I just keep getting like achy pains in the lowest part of my belly. But atm that's all I've had no bleeding or anything since that original bleeding I had previously. And then just that white thick discharge today. I really do appreciate your concern tho. I feel like I'm stuck in a rut right now. I will keep you updated for sure 🥰xx

@JadeShaw94 how are you getting on? BFP or AF?

Just a little update. I had a blood test the other day doctor messaged my results that I am not pregnant hcg levels are normal for a non pregnant women 😩 and that to still test if my period still doesn't arrive which doesn't make sense to me. The blood test clearly answers on my questions. So now I'm 8 days late
I literally just want me period now! 😩🙈

Oh OP I am so sorry to read your update.
Unfortunately missed periods can be really common and that bleed mid cycle may just be an indication that your hormones were a bit out of sync (it's happened to me before!).
I suppose there good also be the chance you had an early chemical?
This won't the the end of your ttc journey. Keep looking and thinking forward and try and let go of this month the best you can xx

Saribon · 10/11/2022 23:36

I'm really sorry you had this disappointing news. It could have been a chemical. I had no idea about them until this year. I found out I was pregnant early and it didn't progress when my period would have been due. I hope your period comes soon so you can move on. Don't lose hope there is a lot to be said for a positive mind set. Everything will come at the right time love. Take care

i spoke to the same doctor yesterday who asked that I go in to get another blood test done. This confused me because surely If the first one was a negative then this one is going to be the same. He also come in to see me while I was there and felt my tummy and said what I gathered that it could just be completely normal but he wants to make sure I’m safe also. After leaving the gp and going to do a spot of Christmas shopping to help me think of anything but this. I then get a call from the scan team at the hospital saying to let them know the results of the blood and that they have heard from the GP this also confused me I know the doctor said he was gonna look into a scan of my period still doesn’t arrive but not a phone call the same day! This is all really messing with my head I’m now 11 days late no sign of AF I’m literally at my wits end with all this now. The doctor is brilliant and really helpful but I’m just confused as to why he’s still going down that route knowing my tests are negative and so was the blood test

I don't know what to say to you, the GP should def have told you exactly what he is looking into. it's never ending. Please let me know how you get on and take care x

Clocloxx · 12/11/2022 18:00

I've read stories of girls who didn't test positive until they were 7 or 8 weeks, you definitely had a positive test in one of your pictures! Very strange

Saribon · 12/11/2022 18:55

Yeah good point, anything is possible. I have heard of women not testing positive for ages too

Confusing ain't it. I mean I know he was looking for eptopic but I wouldn't of thought there was any need as the blood test come back negative and I know the new one he's done will too!

Hello, ah that's sweet thank you, still no period not to sure what's going on the doctor is gonna call me today tho and discuss where we go from here
Now I just want my AF so I can start fresh but I can't even do that right now 😩

Hello! I’ve just been reading your posts and hope you are doing well! I thoughts it’s worth asking whether you may have ovulated later than you thought….hence your period still has not come.

this month I thought I ovulated on day 11…I tested positive on clear blue ovulation. A few days later I thought I’d test again when I saw some mucus..and clear blue showed high fertility.

I showed high fertility for 9 days…until yesterday when I peaked.

now if I go by my first “supposed” ovulation…then I should start my period this Sunday. But I’m guessing that the first ovulation was just a surge but I didn’t actually ovulate.

and if I go by my second real ovulation then I should be starting my period in two weeks.

hope that makes sense

Saribon · 17/11/2022 16:59

Bless you, is this completely out of the ordinary for you?? I'm never late it musty be so frustrating. You may have ovulated late as mentioned. Hope AF shows up soon so you can focus and move on with things xx

I'm fed up with it all now and just want my bloody period 😩 so we can start fresh I'm stuck in limbo right now xx

hford19 · 19/11/2022 13:48

I think that the bleeding you had at the beginning might have been a weird period. So you might not be as late as you think. If so you may be ovulating soon? Might have worth doing ovulation tests.

About an hour ago I wiped and sore some light pink. I'm praying this is my period starting. I've never wanted to start bleeding so much in my life 😂x

Bless you! I'm rooting for you too! This has been a real saga hasn't it. Maybe that bleed had been a light period or this has been a strange chemical pregnancy. Whatever happened hopefully you will be back to normal ASAP x
