Hopefully things work out OK for you.

loads of women bleed at that point, lo is burrowing and its quite common to get bleeds. are you passing any clots?

tangy · 06/02/2007 22:30

had a few clots but not anything large or different from period!

lissielou · 06/02/2007 22:31

i am. like you hcg levels are rising but have been bleeding on and off for about 2w now. no pain, no clots, mostly old blood but qite heavy. got a scan on thurs. had one last tues and couldnt see a bean, but hcg levels are rising nicely, so thats got to be good news. you dont produce hcg without something being there iykwim

tangy · 06/02/2007 22:34

thats why i'm so confused i know they won't rise without something there but the bleeding scares me a bit! and i've had some bad pains!

hi, how are you now?

tangy · 13/02/2007 13:23

went to the docs on the 7th thought i had a water infection-the doc phoned me an ambulance from the surgery to go a&e, turned out i had an ectopic pregnancy so they've had to take out my left tube! i'm ok tho! if i hadn't gone docs they say i could have died as it had started to burst! they also said that the shadow on womb was more than likely another baby. thanx for listenin tho!!

oh Tangy, I'm so sorry. Were you not in terrible pain? I hope you feel much better soon.

I am really scared of the idea of ectopics, I'm meant to be having an early scan next week to rule it out. I'm 6+2 weeks but haven't had any bleeds since 3+5 weeks so am hoping things are ok.

Have you seen Lissie's news? she was ectopic too

tangy · 14/02/2007 22:52

thanx alot you guys! i was in pain but with 2 other kids i can't really stop!! you just have to grin and bear it!
