hairytriangle · 01/06/2010 16:34

they hven't given me a trans vaginal scan. should I ask for one?

digitalgirl · 01/06/2010 16:38

hairy Shite shite shite. Hugs to you and your dp.

digitalgirl · 01/06/2010 16:42

And yes to the dildocam hairy. They need to properly rule out there being no retained products. Doesn't the methostuff just make you bleed more? Surely you've had enough of that. Apologies I have no experience of a medical managed mc or erpc other than what I've read on here.

digitalgirl · 01/06/2010 16:50

Sarah would this be your first period after your mc that you're waiting for? Any idea when you might have ovulated? If you know you ovulated over two weeks ago then I'd be inclined to test again on Friday (ie a week after your last test). But what do I know I have irregular cycles so have to do all sorts of poking around to ascertain when I'm really due.

hairytriangle · 01/06/2010 16:50

they saw an empty womb last week (and a little something probably retained products initially at the beginning of May)
I'm a sensible human being but I can't help clutching at straws, even though hcg is next to nothing, what if ther's a baby hiding in my retroverted uterus?

sorry I'm getting a bit hysterical, maybe

batteryhen · 01/06/2010 16:51

hairy

yes to the scan - if nothing else it may just give you peace of mind I had a medical management mc and had 2 or 3 scans after as I bled for ages too, ask them for one if it will make you feel better. xx

hairytriangle · 01/06/2010 16:51

Why is my body so fucking crap I've bled for 16 days this month and my hcg went down dramatically then up again I just feel so despairing right now.

sarahmia · 01/06/2010 16:57

digital Im waiting for my second period but im not sure at all when i ovulated.. but i DO KNOW that the earliest i could have got pregnant was this time 2 weeks ago. (dont ask, im a religious jew and we have rules about when you can have sex
so, what do you think?

Hairy If it were me, i would def ask for a scan, but i dont have any experience with this kind of thing. but it cant hurt. What i do have experience with is feeling like my body has totally let me down. I know how it feels and its horrible. HUGS lovely xx

clareanna · 01/06/2010 17:05

hairy big hug- what crap news. I think it sounds like the methobaddy is probably the best thing now- it's been going on so long, and you're so worried- I know you've wanted to avoid it though muse and pretty have had it i think so may be able to advise?

sarah according to jolls link she posted, 11 dpo is the earliest hcg would show up on a test, so try to wait until then? The test 5 days before you're due kits only truly work if you have a regular 28 day cycle. [clareanna frantically tries to listen to own advice]
I have a looong cycle and last time only tested pg 5 days after af was due (and spent a bloddy fortune in the meantime on tests!)

hairytriangle · 01/06/2010 17:14

It could make me bleed more apparently. I am so so sick of it.

sarahmia · 01/06/2010 17:17

clareanna when would that be??
truth is with dd the first test i did was like 5 days after AF was due and with this last pregnancy the first test i did was the day after AF was due and it was VERY light. but.... that baby had triploidy and that usually means your HCG levels are all off (apparantly very high) altho research is hard to come by as 70% of triploidy pregnancies end in early miscarriage (i was one of the lucky ones who made it all the way to 6 months )

PrettyVacant1 · 01/06/2010 17:32

Oh SpeshulHairy I'm sorry.
Fucksticks indeed.
Dildo cam affirmative!
Have you had an ERPC? Sorry I can't remember

ViV how's the Grump day going?

It 'ain't over till the mental fecker beeps.
Have everything crossed for you both x

WYG what news? How are you doing?

8's good to see you're feeling better,will FB ya x

Barren Look after yourself, sorry you had to go through all that again.

Welcome to Ljg and Ivy we're a good bunch, I hope you're not with us for long and find all the support you need.

Hello again MummyMcKT Squeeeze, I sympathize with you on the hurt of just wanting to be a Mum

Empty sorry if I came across as a little insensitive in earlier posts to you, I didn't mean to make light of your predicament, I was hyper in work and posted rashly.
Just read over to catch up and I thought it was a little You do still make me smile though with your wit

Waves to Digi , Battery , Muse, Clare , Cheepz , Curly , Jolls , Dorcas , Lucy , Moo , Lady , Littlemiss , Sarah and any lurky lurkers.

I'm feeling a little discombobulated.
Talking to MrG t'other night about you lovely lot and I realised that since I joined this perculiar particular fred I have not actually been allowed ttc officially.
I would be on the TWW too now and I've found myself sympathy symptom spotting with you all.

Whether you're on the TWW, seeking support,waiting for results,having the rusty fecker to stay,or plotting,planning and practicing your seduction techniques
We are all heading the same way, for the same goal and we'll all get there.

hairytriangle · 01/06/2010 17:39

pretty no, this is my first pg, first miscarriage, first freakiness and they have only ever mentioned methotrexate - not D&C or anything else.

PrettyVacant1 · 01/06/2010 18:00

Hairy I've not had methotrexate, I was/am being monitored by weekly piddling in tubes and sending them to Sheffield.

If it was me I'd ask for a scan,if there are still (sorry) "retained products" and there's no danger of Molar could you not request a D&C?
It's not the most pleasant of paths but it would speed up your plight.

A little more arse kicking and stamping of feet maybe needed.

Sorry this is still happening to you. x

hairytriangle · 01/06/2010 18:05

well, they don't actually know where the 'retained products' are as last week's scan showed an empty womb, so I am guessing they think a d&c won't do it. they are calling it a 'pregnancy of unknown origin'

I am thoroughly sad and fed up now.

PrettyVacant1 · 01/06/2010 18:06

Sorry I'm not really with it this evening, I meant to ask have they mentioned anything about an ectopic?

Viv (I am still holding out for you hun but just in case), hairy, pretty and anyone else that needs it.....what you 'avin??? DH made some very tasty crunchie Vodka if anyone is interetsed??

Hairy good luck tomorrow, I know it is totally bollocks but you can't go on like this and I know methopoison means waiting but speaking from experience (and not that I am trying to teach you to suck eggs) you are gonna need a while to recover from losing so much claret. Big hugs x

Pretty, bless you, wont be long mate x x Your appointment is soon isn't it?

Hello to Mummy, Ivy & Sarah I hope you have a short stay with us but enjoy the bar and hopefully we can keep you smiling!

BUnderTheBonnet · 01/06/2010 18:18

Hi everyone, especially new people - Ivysedai very cool nickname.

Sorry its all gone totally pete tong again hairy.

Well the RTD extra hiccup disappeared pretty quick, but had terrible gut ache all week.

And, today I got a bill for my treatment in France during my mc - £7200!!!! I just about had to pick myself up off the floor when I opened that one. Don't really know what it's for because it's in French, surprisingly, and my French isn't up to all the abbreviations. I had a EHIC and travel insurance, so should be OK, but it's a huge faff. I assumed it would all be straightforward because it was emergency treatment within the EU blah blah blah...

hairytriangle · 01/06/2010 18:28

pretty they lookd at my tubes and couldn't find any sign and said it must be 'unknown origin'

All they've said is

1st scan: something unedintifyable at the bottom of the womb, could have been retained products, and a small functional cyst

2nd scan (last week) nothing in the womb or tubes, smaller cyst.

PrettyVacant1 · 01/06/2010 18:48

X post sorry.
I know it's not what you wanted to hear or have to do, but if it makes you better and gives you a better chance of having a healthy pregnancy in future in the long run, waiting a possible 3 months is a small step in the right direction of your quest.

I remember saying to MrG days before we found out about the molar that it would kill me to be forced to wait ttc again.

I understand how you feel.

That was 5 months ago and I'm not saying it's flown but you deal with these things and with the support of this thread and MrG I've managed.
I have to keep telling myself that when we do get the green light it will be with the support and experience of medical professionals too.

It's shit, it sucks and it's highly bleedin' unfair.

Spooky about your dream btw.
I hope it's not in too much bad taste to say you'll have to try and train your horrible brian to dream about winning the lottery

Moofold · 01/06/2010 19:28

Hello all, sorry for being so rubbish at checking in and now struggling to keep up. Had a quick scan over posts to see how WYG is doing - good stuff about the scan, hope your holiday is going well. Viv hope that faint line gets stronger when you test next -- I know that horrible feeling though that it just hasn't happened. Everything crossed for you.

Hairy I really though you were getting there, so sorry it hasn't worked out that way. Best of luck to all you boob gropers on the 2WW!

Our bastard car broke down at a busy roundabout this morning and is going to cost in excess of £1k to get fixed. Its still sitting up at the garage while we figure that one out! I'm even wondering whether to leave off the CBFM piddlesticks this month while we tighten the pursestrings! I did have an excellent weekend, however, out for dinner and drinks with mates while DD stayed at my folks. A bit tender yesterday as we were still up when it started to get light.

Hope all you other gals are well, promise not to be such a slacker this week so I can keep on top of news properly x

hairytriangle · 01/06/2010 19:45

special mention to pretty thank you! What you've said is almost exactly what the doctor I just spoke to said.

I have had my worries eased a lot. They think there is a stubborn, microscopic bit of tissue there, and it needs to come out, so it's best to get it out.

I feel like I've been hogging this TTC thread with my problems, so i'm going to ease away for a little bit - I'll update on other threads, but wish you lovely, supportive wonderful women all the positive love and light in the world for BFPs and easy times!

I will rejoin you when I am TTC again.

Love to each and every one of you.

I will 'lurk' to see how you are all doing

Thank you all!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

moo sorry to hear about your car!

hairytriangle · 01/06/2010 19:46

and special mentions to magic and bunder too wave
