I’m either 2 or 3DPO today! Normally I know for sure but I ran out of ovulation tests and they were delivered late 😭 I do have a lot of cramping on the right side tho but I’m not symptom spotting!

@Jess1997 I also had this and spoke to Tommys charity. They were so so good! Please teach out to them. Then go back to the doctors with there recommendations. Xx

Got a phone call with the doctor tomorrow! I also just did a test to see if the lines are getting lighter yet but they’re actually getting darker which is super confusing.. but like I’ve without a doubt had a chemical bc my blood has been full of clots and I’m still bleeding heavy

@Jess1997 sorry to hear that.. hopefully the appt with the doctor will help understand what’s happening better.

fingers crossed

Jess1997 · 13/10/2023 21:14

I have a scan at the early pregnancy unit on Monday! Worst case scenario it’s ectopic.. it’s just strange that my tests have gotten darker instead of lighter

@Jess1997 sre they still getting darker?

keep us updated 🤞🏻 how are you feeling xx

Jess1997 · 14/10/2023 12:09

@ttcthoughts yeah they’re still dark! Still bleeding tho.. not as heavy but that’ll be a week tomorrow of bleeding! My biggest worry is ectopic but I’m in no pain. Like not even period cramps. Felt weird last night tho.. like really hard to explain but my uterus felt exhausted? I know that sounds ridiculous but it felt like it had been doing lots of work and it was done 😂

@ttcthoughts also on Sunday before the bleeding started I took a not early clear blue digital and it said not pregnant and I didn’t think anything of it because they’re not as sensitive but I did one on Thursday and it said pregnant

@Jess1997 thats super strange isn’t it.

I hope your scan tomorrow goes well ❤️

Jess1997 · 15/10/2023 12:34

@ttcthoughts i called the maternity building yesterday for a second opinion and they told me to come up and be assessed.. 5 hours for them to do a pregnancy test, poke my belly a bit and tell me to come back on Monday cause they don’t scan at weekends 🙃🙃 didn’t get home till nearly 1am!

Jess1997 · 15/10/2023 12:35

@ttcthoughts also the doctor told me it’s possible for my HCG to rise after a miscarriage and I’m like?? Everything I have read everywhere says that it doesn’t rise?? It can stay the same and gradually drop but not rise

@Jess1997 how infuriating for you, I have never heard of that! ever!

I hope everything goes well today, sending you lots of love today xx

Jess1997 · 16/10/2023 12:03

@ttcthoughts just another miscarriage! Nothing on the scan and the test was quite faint

CatiaR · 23/10/2023 06:12

@Jess1997 hiya how are you doing?
nothing much here yet but coming close to FW again

Jess1997 · 26/10/2023 21:08

@CatiaR that’s exciting! I’m quite jealous 😂😂
@ttcthoughts how are you feeling? How far along are you now?
I had to call the EPU on Monday cause they told me to call if I’m still positive. And obviously I am 🙃🙃 so went yesterday got another scan, again they couldn’t see a thing.. got my bloods done again, she told me it the HCG was still 40 they’ll repeat the bloods on Friday but if it’s down to like 25 just retest in 2 weeks.. but the HCG levels are now 150 which is still incredibly low but higher than they were.. so I’m back again tomorrow for more bloods 🙃

CatiaR · 26/10/2023 21:11

@Jess1997 oh that’s frustrating being in limbo for so long! Hopefully you’ll have some answers soon.

for me it was ovulation day today so 1dpo and back into TWW tomorrow

Jess1997 · 26/10/2023 21:13

@CatiaR ooohhh that’s so exciting!! Sending all the baby dust!!
they told me the biggest problem with me is, because last week too there was nothing on the scan not even a sack it means they don’t actually know if the baby implanted where it should.. so the worry is it’s implanted somewhere else but trust me she checked everywhere! Hoping they don’t do another scan tomorrow because it was super uncomfortable yesterday.. way worse than last week

ttcthoughts · 27/10/2023 05:55

@Jess1997 thats soo frustrating for you.it’s soo strange your levels are increasing too

@CatiaR i hope you can keep distracted in your TWW.

things are going well thank you. Baby is growing well and I’m 12 weeks now. Feels like forever away though but the reality is it will go too quickly xx

CatiaR · 27/10/2023 07:01

@Jess1997 yea that is odd and frustrating. Hope they give you some answers soon.

@ttcthoughts thanks! It has been busy so far so I’m hoping it will be ok, at the very least this is the most normal cycle I’ve had since starting ttc so taking that as a positive 😂

12 weeks! Time goes quick! Glad you’re doing well

Jess1997 · 27/10/2023 16:59

@ttcthoughts wow 12 weeks already!!!! 12 weeks always feels really reassuring doesn’t it! Have you started telling people then?
So my HCG levels are now 207 so I’ve to go on Monday, get more bloods.. wait at the hospital for the results and then it they’re higher I have to get an injection to stop them getting higher

OP posts:
ttcthoughts · 29/10/2023 04:13

@Jess1997 honestly I feel so relieved that I have made it this far this time, we have started telling people now. We aren’t going to announce it for a while, I can’t be bothered with the comments with the old lady at work 😂😂 we have also got our NIPT results back too.

ohh no how strange, I wonder what’s going on. Will they re scan you Monday too?

ttcthoughts · 31/10/2023 07:10

@Jess1997 how are you? x

Jess1997 · 02/11/2023 17:44

@ttcthoughts sorry I’ve been MIA! I went back today and they think it’s an ectopic on my c section scar 🙃 got a shot of methotrexate today! So a long week or so ahead of me
