@ttcat37,

That's interesting to know. The local one to me does say they can do it at 5 weeks, but that they may need to it internally.

I've actually had quite a lot of mild cramps, which I never get when I'm expecting my period, but DH thinks it may be psychosomatic which is quite possible.

I had cramps for a quite a few weeks, kind of like period cramps but duller. I occasionally get them now.
The internal scans are clearer than external, so better in my opinion!

Same - if my partner and i get to 6 weeks and its not a chemical pregnancy (which i think you know within 5 weeks?) - we will get a private 6 week scan

Ive also had cramps :)
Lighter than usual ones that are usually b4 period

Hi @worldwidetravel2017

How are you- remind me, how many weeks are you? Good to hear re the cramps- mine are mild, not painful, but quite frequent.

Fingers crossed for all of us!

Pretty much 3 ish ish from ovulation i think near ish

Have a ' weeks - test to do soon

So if we count from 1st day of last period - more..
Cycle day 41 tomorrow

I guess im so aware it could be a chemical preg maybe that im not letting myself get 2 excited yet

Ahh my period is late but here (as expected this month as hubs was away), so now ovulation will be later than anticipated and I'm away on a trip (without Hub) during ovulation🤦‍♀️
Stuff is not aligning at all at the moment, we never really travel away from each other, no idea why it's now happening at the most inopportune time. It's stressing me out. Failing at the most basic hurdle of actually DTD at the right time.

So happy to see the positive tests! I want to join the gang!

& it was a chemical pregnancy

Hope you get your positive test soon
& hope dates / chances align better soon

Hows things with you?
Hope your cramps were not bad news like mine were

11dpo here, but BFN so far on any test. I'm not feeling as crampy as I normally do at this stage though and had a tiny bit of spotting yesterday. Despite not really trying this month (only managed to DTD once in the right window), I'm wondering if this could be our month.

My positive on numark very early test was 15dpo

@worldwidetravel2017
I'm so sorry x

Thank you
I was v angry and v upset yesterday
Im a bit mixed emotionally today and bleeding a lot

I guess a positive is that we ( briefly) conceived on our 2nd cycle tryin

@worldwidetravel2017

I'm really sorry. Can totally imagine how angry and upset you must be.

The cramps for me have just continued- they are EXACTLY like period cramps. Every time I go to the loo I expect to be bleeding. And last night they kept me awake with worry- you just feel so helpless as there is nothing you can do to stop it if it happens.

However, I am still pretty affirmatively pregnant- did a test yesterday just to check line is getting darker.

I have also extensively google ld the period like cramps and found tons of threads here saying how common and normal they are- so here's hoping.

Look after yourself @worldwidetravel2017

@Rusticanella i really hope they are normal for you & that you dont bleed

How many weeks are you ?

Hospital called me 6 weeks yesterday - thats when bleeding begun 4 me

One thing you could do is check your hcg is doubling over a 48 hr time period

Theyd do hcg bloods 2 days apart if you asked

( My hcg didnt play ball // often doesn't in cp )

@worldwidetravel2017

Flo app says 4 weeks tomorrow. Think the next 2 weeks will feel like forever and then the 6 after that even longer

@worldwidetravel2017

I did ask about blood tests but they refused (NHS) how did you get yours done?

Told them i had cramps and tiny discharge / tiny brown blood..

( id also never been preg before )

When i was at hosp brown blood then turned light red

Are you counting weeks from 1st day of your last period? Thats when NHS/ hospital count from

If your 6 weeks from 1st day of last period - you can def ask NHS 4 hcg bloods

Hi,

Yes only 4 weeks tomorrow from first day of last period.

I have really short cycles, so everything always seems out of wack with me a bit. I tested positive for the first time, 3 weeks after first day of last period.

Ladies I’m confused. Last month at 9dpo I have a tiny amount of Brown/pink blood, then cm went back to a clear normal colour. I thought there was a possibility that this could have been implantation. well I wasn’t pregnant.

Now this cycle 9dpo same again, picture included, apologies TMI.
CM back to normal and I am 5 days away from my expected period.

Has anyone had something similar happen to them, do you think the egg is trying to implant?

Sorry I forgot to cover image! (Sensitive)
