Thanks for the reassurance about the Clearblur pippop21 u seem to have similar dates to me, i used the NHS due date calculator and went of LMP, but I am very regular. My LMP was 11 Jan and my estimated due date is 17th Oct. 2nd Nov sounds very late?

Pippop21 · 17/02/2020 18:29

@3isthemagicnumber3 i know, im due 21st oct from LMP but also 26th oct as i usually have long cycles and then i fpund that site for conception date and it put me to november 🤣🤣🤣.

3isthemagicnumber3 · 17/02/2020 18:30

Ignore me just read back and saw posts about your cycle.
I have booked for an early dating/reassurance scan (private) in a couple of weeks when I will be just 8 weeks, couldn’t face the thought of waiting until 12 weeks!

3isthemagicnumber3 · 17/02/2020 18:33

If u are measuring 1 to 2 on CB I would say it’s definitley before November!

So today has been a weird day.

I was rushed into EPAU due to a suspected ectopic after having severe cramps, numbness and left shoulder tip pain.

They scanned me today (5 weeks exactly) where they could only see a gestational sac - nothing inside it. They didn't seem too concerned but did say they'd have to do blood tests and re scan me later to check if a yolk sac or feral pile is visible

They took my hcg levels which were at 2800 today (365 last Wednesday) and are going to do them again Wednesday to see if they're doubling.

Thankfully ectopic has been ruled out, but still so many mixed feelings about today!!

Bananaloaf88 · 17/02/2020 19:28

@marauder1994 I am so glad it isn't ectopic. I wouldn't wish that on anyone. You must have had quite a scare.

I will keep my fingers and toes crossed for you. Sending love ♥️

Pippop21 · 17/02/2020 20:17

@RubyTreat ive just joined the group im rach xcx on fb xx

Bean20 · 17/02/2020 20:21

Hi girls,
Congratulations to you all! We had our BFP Wednesday, now I am so paranoid incase anything happens! Glad to read I am not the only one thinking like this and seems like it is quite normal. Hopefully we can all relax after our 12 week scan!
Only symptom at the moment is very sore boobs! I felt sick for a couple of days but now I'm fine (fingers crossed)... Although when I did feel sick at least I felt pregnant! Feel like you can't win with symptoms it's either have them and struggle or don't have them and worry is everything ok!

3isthemagicnumber3 · 17/02/2020 21:06

Hope everything is OK marauder, glad that they ruled out eptopic.

Catherine1210 · 17/02/2020 21:18

@marauder1994 I’m so pleased they ruled out ectopic for you. Keeping my fingers crossed your HCG levels keep rising!

@Bean20 congrats! I feel like I have zero symptoms apart from I’m worrying about a lot more recently, but I think that’s normal for the early stages! Slightly sore-ish boobs but not until I press them. Let’s hope we can say the same in a few weeks when morning sickness could kick in!! 🙈🤞🏼

Indigogirl88 · 18/02/2020 07:17

@marauder1994 so glad to hear that it isn't ectopic! Flowers

So last night we dtd omg ladies has anyone dtd since getting the bfp haha it's a little different for me down there is all I can say. It did however was the cramps which is good. Sorry if that's tmi!

I will join the fb group once weve had our early scan next week I'll be just 7 weeks then. Weve booked it privately as I dont think we could wait till 12 weeks for some peace of mind

Catherine1210 · 18/02/2020 07:38

Emotional rollercoaster for us last night. But thankfully it’s good news and my HCG levels are rising so no concerns from the doctor about the brown blood discharge.

Now for the rollercoaster... The doctor phoned with my results and said my HCG levels haven’t risen and he couldn’t say whether the pregnancy was progressing at this stage, sorry as this isn’t the news he wanted to feedback. Cue me melting down, my boyfriend and are were quietly positive they would go up...

5 mins later I get another call, the doctor read the results wrong and they have gone up at the right rate and it’s progressing nicely.... 😱😱😱😱 you think they’d check the numbers before phoning wouldn’t you!

Atleast we got the news we wanted in the end!

Pippop21 · 18/02/2020 07:50

@Catherine1210 thats fab news!! But OMG what a divvy haha!!!

So i had a cracking head ache last night, and i think i felt a little sick but not sure if i did!! Fine this morning, still no symptoms other than one little bork, and my partner asking me why im in such a mood (didnt think i was tbh like)

Xxxx

Catherine1210 · 18/02/2020 07:57

@Pippop21 tell me about it!

Even through the blood test visits etc, I still haven’t felt anymore symptoms! I too am being told I’m sharp at the moment by OH ooops.

In a way I’m pleased though as I have friends who have suffered with sickness from as early as 5weeks. So maybe we are lucky ☺️

Pippop21 · 18/02/2020 08:04

@Catherine1210 with my son which was ten years ago, i didnt even realise i had missed a period and was wondering why i kept feeling sick all the time until it clicked and i done a CBD which came back as 3+ since conception!

With my second which resulted in a MM it came back 3+ also but i was only 3 days late for my AF and i had sore boobs that gradually got worse and i put my sickness down to being due on...cause i do get all the preggo symptoms when im due AF usually!

This time i have had a bit of sickness about two weeks ago (thought nothing of it even though we where TTC) had period and lower back ache/pain last week and about 3 days ago, and yesterday and this morning the off bork but not really much else other than increased discharge which keeps making me think AF has arrived and when i check nope....im currently around 2days late (have different length cycles! Going to do a CBD at the end of the week and see if my numbers have changed xx

Pippop21 · 18/02/2020 11:15

@TFC90 how are u getting on hun xx

GoldenCloud · 18/02/2020 11:31

Great news @Catherine1210 ! But what scare must have been that first call 😳

I had my second blood test this morning and just got the results. HCG levels are now 1537 UI/L, and 7 days ago they were 95 UI/L. So it seems it's going up well! So happy with this news, one milestone down - next one up first ultrasound at 6 weeks +6 on the 2nd March 🙏🏼

Fingers crossed for your blood test tomorrow @marauder1994 🤞🏼

greeny506 · 18/02/2020 11:31

Still avidly checking (not really sure why!) but my line is still so faint! I think I was due over the weekend (second cycle since stopping the pill so not entirely sure) but it's still so faint! Hopefully it means I was only due yesterday or today...! My one steps are even more faint but the boots own on Friday seemed to be a bit darker. This is a different brand from Savers which I know doesn't help....!

Pippop21 · 18/02/2020 11:49

How far along are u @greeny506 ? Xx

greeny506 · 18/02/2020 12:12

@Pippop21 not sure. I've only been off my pill since December so had a period 16th Jan and presuming my cycle is around 28-30 days. My Flo app was set for 29 days (which was a guesstimate!) and told me I was due on Friday so tested on Friday. I could have been due today or tomorrow.... or even later.
