you might have seen me on adjacent threads

but I am concerned and I want some advice as I have not a scooby doo in this area and am concerned as I am preg

please excuse me as I am bound to ramble

basically I know when my last period started it was Nov 29th so i am 6 weeks and I think 5 days preg in theory

I have been bleeding slightly on and off

had pos then neg then pos tests as of last week I only found out last wed as was not expecting to be pregnant.

I went to epu and they did scan on fri my levels were 417 on fri but on sun they were 791 (they had nearly doubled but not quite)

I was told my scan showed a nice thick womb lining but nothing else - no gestation sac or anything

I could just be early preg ie too early to see anything but this is inconsistent with my dates

I am concerned it might be ectopic as my first two pregs werent atall like this and I have got a sore back and loose stools today but no bleeding. I have an uncomfy tummy too and the odd left side pain but maybe I am reading into things and am overly worried.

can i ask what symptoms ectopic pregnancys bring

thanks

sorry rambling.

Dear all,

You might have seen me on some other threads. I have had 2 ectopics and I sympathize. I was so familiar with my symptoms I ended up telling the doctors what was wrong.
There is a shocking lack of info anout this terrible condition. I was treated in Ireland and the nursing staff seemed to treat me more as though I had appendicitus than for the loss of a much wanted and much loved embryo.
Newbie.

it is amazing, isnt' it, when you find yourself knowing SO much more about it than the doctors. i'm sorry about your two wee pregnancies, i've had two eps as well, it's tough. i have dd now and am eternally grateful.
