I've got an emergency doctors appointment at 16:20. The cramping I felt a few days ago on the right side of my uterus is still there but it's a sharp stabbing pain now, I feel sick and dizzy.
I called EPU, but they won't see me until I have seen a GP first.
Ok, so I went to my appointment today and it was really awful. First off, I'm seeing a different doctor and she was strange and hard to understand. She was really weirded out that I knew when I Ovulated and thought it was bazaar that I temp. She was really rude when I laughed telling her I had already taken about 30 urine tests. She told me that you only need to take one to find out if your pregnant or not. And looked at me like I was crazy for taking so many (maybe I am?)
I brushed it the whole bad vibe I got from her as her English just not being so great, but then it got worse when we did the ultrasound. Basically she couldn't find ANYTHING. I know it's really early, So i wasn't that surprised, but she basically accused me never getting a positive test in the first place. She actually said to me, "you know there has to be two lines for it to be positive, was there one or two lines?" She told me I wasn't pregnant, then I said maybe it was just too early to tell at 4 weeks. She then said that I was actually 6 weeks and since there was nothing there I wasn't pregnant. Even though she had all my dates, she didn't bother to do the simple math that I am only 4 weeks along. It was all really strange and weird and uncomfortable. She agreed to do the Beta blood work and said she would call me tomorrow with the results. I immediately asked if we could schedule blood work for monday and she said that we would have to wait to see what the results are.. basically she doesn't believe me that I'm pregnant.
I don't really know what to day, I'm sort of speechless after the whole thing. This is the top maternity hospital in our city and I was so surprised about the service. My husband said that once we know whats what we can have a look around at other hospitals or I can go back to the head doctor of the hospital (he treated me after my miscarriage and while about 5 times the price as a local doctor, he's about 100 times better)
Sorry for the rant, but just had to get it all off my chest. Who knows if I'm pregnant or not at this point, my own doctor doesn't believe me. I can't wait to get my bloods back tomorrow and prove her wrong. From what I've read on line, its totally normal to not see anything at 4+4, so I'm really hoping that everything is ok in there and my little tadpole is just a slow grower.
Thanks to anyone who made it through this novel.

I have my second beta today. I am really scared. I was stupid and took a frer this morning because I wanted to see if it got darker. Maybe I didn't wait long enough or something but it wasn't darker, it was lighter. Then driving to work this morning I coughed and felt a sharp pain. Then later while stretching I felt it again. Please tell me I am not going to loose this baby that took 6 years and a miracle to make. Am I just being crazy?
Oh my viet that doctor was truly shocking you must change if you can x I'm 4+4 weeks too x
Evansangel how was your appt?

I read that those Frer's are so sensitive that if you don't pee on them just right and for only 5 seconds and don't put the cap back on at just the right angle...it can be wonky. Don't worry quite yet. AND don't let the hcg levels scare you, either. I just went through that, apparently for nothing (more on that later). We ladies don't always seem to follow the hcg "rules"!!
Got my fx for you, hope your beta comes back nice and highI have my second beta today. I am really scared. I was stupid and took a frer this morning because I wanted to see if it got darker.

I am in shock right now that a physician would treat you that way... totally unprofessional! I agree with the other ladies, time to find a new OB. The bedside manner of this lady is ridiculous.Ok, so I went to my appointment today and it was really awful. First off, I'm seeing a different doctor and she was strange and hard to understand.

Thank you all, am home now with a pizza hut on the way. All i have had today is a pot noodle and a bar of Galaxy
Anyway, all seems ok! Baby is in the right place. At first we could only see a gestational sac, makes sense because i am only 5+2.
He checked my ovaries (which are fine) and then he moved it slightly and BAM there was baby and a yolk sac.
No heartbeat just yet as i am early but they want me back in 10 days for another scan because they can't discharge me until they see a heartbeat.
Here is a photo i took on my phone..
