Go to the early pregnancy unit and tell them you're pregnent after MAP, you're 6.5 weeks so they should scan you.

The MAP works by stopping/delaying ovulation, so unfortunately if you've already ovulated it won't do anything. So sorry for your previous loss, you have time to think through your options so don't feel like you need to rush into a decision. Hope you're as ok as can be x
