Hi I had a Ma 3weeks ago at 6w. My pregnancy symptoms were awful tired sickness knew I was pregnant before missed period. However as soon as I took the pills symptoms relieved instantly. My hair was back to normal didn't feel sick or as tired stomach went down. However all the symptoms seem to be returning and still have a strong positive pregnancy test has this happened to anyone else before. Bleeding has reduced but still spotting

I’m in a similar position. Any update?

Yes had a scan given more misoprsal retained tissue but don't feel they've done anything. Need to take another pt in a week. Stomachs still swollen so pretty certain the second lot haven't shifted anything. Just so odd how I got rid of pregnancy symptoms then a week later they returned except cravings they have not returned

That’s weird that the symptoms returned. The scan showed the pregnancy has passed though? I’ve got faint positive test, no sickness but sore breasts 4 weeks after medical. I only bled for a week and didn’t have any big clots. When does the stress of this all end?! I was 8 weeks when I had the medical.

He didn't say much said he can see the pregnancy so I don't think it passed. I know it'd s nightmare this

Oh so it hadn’t passed. Gosh so sorry you’re going through this. I’ve tried calling MSI for 20 minutes but couldn’t get through to anyone 🤦🏼‍♀️ How are you coping? X

I got them to ring back. Its frustrating because I know it hasn't worked again but have to wait till Friday to take pt. Still showing strong pisitives. Feel bloated tired etc still. Then it may take up to 2week for an appt again. The god knows from there its just been very long winded. I wanted it over ASAP and it's been a 7weeks already since I decided to terminate. I just want to feel normal again

Update for fobbed off ro A and E by msi as they said I need to be checked for eptopic. Went to the hospital said my cervix was closed and any blood which I now have looks like old blood but since not in pain they don't think it's eptopic. Took bloods to test hcg which showed 525 and again yesterday. The nurse just rang me saying hcg is not going down as much as it should in 48hrs so they cam not rule anything out. Need to have more bloods amd booked in for a scan tomorrow. My hcg is going g down which is a good thing. But I remenwr thinking to myself just because I'm not I'm pain doesn't mean anything with my body. When I had my first baby I was 10cm dilated and had to be checked by a second nurse as I couldn't be as I wasn't on enough pain as she said. They left me in a room and I had my baby within minutes. So anything could be going on.

I've just seen your thread. Sorry you're going through this. I had a friend who had a molar pregnancy a few years ago. It was a tough time for her but wanted you to be reassured that the nhs took it incredibly seriously and acted straight away, so you're in good hands.

Colt300418 · 15/03/2022 15:39

I have to wait a week to confirm. Its been an awful waiting game for me. Another scan next week because they are unsure scan looks like it but clinically doesn't match up. I'm just done with it all. Alot of hospital apps. Was there 5 hours yday I had to leave to get my son so they rang me and said they've decided to wait another week to see if it passes. Seriously given up with trying to find answers seems like no one has a clue. I'm an unusual case apparently currently sat in bed because I'm constantly exhausted 😩

If they suspect a molar pregnancy you should not have to wait a week for a scan. You could trying ringing your GP to see if they can hurry things along.

Ch3rrybakewell · 16/03/2022 20:51

So sorry that you’re going through this, I can’t imagine the stress it must be putting you under 😢

Colt300418 · 17/03/2022 08:41

It has been stressful I sleep everyday but no where near as bad at the start.

Yesterday had cramps in my lower back and front and I am bleeding a little heavier and it's red so maybe something is exiting no clots or anything though. Stomachs still swollen. I just feel so lazy and since it's been going on 2month now sure my bfs fed up of hearing how tired I am. I just would like a normal day and be myself again

@Colt300418 how are you getting on now? Sending hugs x

Colt300418 · 05/04/2022 11:11

My second surgery showed no change. So i had surgery to remove it. My hcg has gone down alot but I have not took a test recently. Don't feel 100% but got a cold straight after so been ill with that. They said will be 3 weeks to see if it was deffo molar but my symptoms are no where near as bad. Hopefully it's all gone now and when this cold dissappears I'll be back to my normal self

I had a medical abortion at 9 weeks, after taking the tablets I was in horrible pain and cramping for just over an hour and continued to bleed lightly for just over 2 weeks… I had assumed the procedure had worked to the pain, bleeding and occasional clotting.
I took the test after 3 weeks to confirm wether or not it had worked and there was a faint positive line. I rang the clinic back and was laughed at and told there is no that I would still be pregnant after bleeding and cramping.
I continue to feel pregnant and am sure that I can feel movement, friends who have had children all say it sounds as if I’m still pregnant and feeling movement but over the counter tests are all negative.
has this happened to anyone else?

Hi @Bootsmoo I hope you are well. I'm going through something similar. Did you find out what was causing the movements? Hope all is well xx.
