well so far so good , still cramping but iv learned not too worry so much, how are you ladies today? x

 

[NYColoradoan]

Thanks, mimomma, that sounds like a good plan. I didn't know if my Dr. would do anything this early because I don't have an appointment until the 27th. Also good to know about the FMU vs. SMU and later in the day. Here I thought FMU was the standard best thing to go by. Now, I'm sure I'll be testing later in the day, too, just to see

NYC- I just reread my post and was trying to say that I'm sure your dr will get you in if you want to be seen. I honestly think you are ok, and don't want it to seem like I think something is wrong. Sometimes a little reassurance from the dr helps. Sorry if my post had a different feel than that.

I actually really appreciated the advice because I didn't know if all of this is even something I should call up my Dr. for, so thank you very much And, I didn't think you were saying anything is wrong, just suggesting a way I might get some answers.

The cramping is unnerving. I honestly don't remember my previous pregnancies so well(conveniently forgotten once holding my beautiful babies).

I'm glad. I know w/my dr office you can leave a message for the nurse and they call you back usually that day. It's nice to tell them what's going on and hear what they think, even if it seems like nothing.

MY fmu tests are the lightest and usually a few hours after i get up, around mid morning i get the best lines! Also yes the digitals arent as sensitive.

I just found out my sister is expecting and her EDD is the 11th of December, how mad is that! I am so happy for them they have been trying for 2years xx

Congrats kcbmama and mrslj
Well, I'm no better off this morning. I went out and bought the Clear Blue Easy digital yesterday. So this morning, I took it and got a not pregnant, plain as can be - gosh those digitals are cold and leave you no hope at all. I still had one FRER left so I dipped that in the urine cup also. It came back with a faint line again, about the same as yesterday's. I'm so confused now and don't know what to do... I had some brown on the tp again later in the day yesterday and then some this morning when I woke up.

i am there with you faint lines and not pregnant on digis. I hope everything turns out oki for the both of us.

AimeeM that is amazing that you get to be bump buddies with your sister! So incredibly happy for both of you
Well, Ladies, I think I'm headed back to TTC. I called my Dr.'s office this morning and one of the Dr.s called me back. I told her about the positive last week, my first appt. scheduled for the 27th, the spotting yesterday and today, and the negative and positive tests. She said 30% of pregnant women have bleeding, but their concern would be ectopic if indeed my hcg levels come back okay. We talked about my cramping because I've had it now for over a week (since what I figure was 7dpo) so nothing different about yesterday or today. She said I could go to the ER today if I was in pain or if it would make me feel better and do bloods and an ultrasound. Or, I could rest today, drink lots of liquids and go into the office tomorrow for a blood test. She said the only thing might be if I go in tomorrow and don't get a positive pregnancy test that I might think, well, I had a positive yesterday, I should've gone in. That doesn't bother me as much as just wanting everything to be okay, so I decided to just rest today. But, I just went to the restroom and had a lot of blood in the toilet. I guess it's AF? It's odd that I had a light line on a FRER this morning, but that could mean I had a chemical and the hcg just hasn't left my system, right? I'm just so upset and can't stop crying. I really wanted this to stick and I'm just so sad

I'm so sorry your feeling like this hun
is it red or brown blood? maybe you should still go to the Drs tomorrow to see what they say have you tested since? xoxox

 

[NYColoradoan]

It's bright red and it keeps coming in large amounts (sorry for tmi). I feel awful too - really, really bad cramping then I go the restroom and more blood. I'm still going to call Dr. in the morning and see what they say. I think I have to make sure my hcg level goes down and I also want to learn more about why it didn't stick. Thanks so much for checking in on me. It makes me feel better to come on here because no one else understands. My poor hubby is at work having to deal with this, but he should be home soon to take care of me.

[AimeeM]

im so sorry to hear what your going through, thinking about you x

 

[NYColoradoan]

I'm so touched by you, Ladies, and your kind thoughts and words for me. I wouldn't be able to get through this without you and I'm so thankful for you.
Well, I went to the Dr. today and I don't know much more. She did an ultrasound and couldn't see anything, which she said she didn't expect to because of how early it is, and I also had blood drawn. I will call tomorrow to find out what my hcg levels are and that will determine next steps. If there's some sort of hcg then I will go back on Wednesday and test again. If it doesn't go down then I will go for a more in-depth ultrasound on Thursday to check for an ectopic. If it goes down, then I have to keep going back for blood tests until my hcg levels are zero. So, that's about all I know now... I'm still bleeding, so I'm pretty much assuming that it's my period. As weird as it sounds, I just hope that some sort of hcg shows up because otherwise I'm going to feel like I was never pregnant at all and the tests were just wrong. But, I know it was real and those five + tests can't be wrong, right? At least I feel better today because I'm doing something about it rather than just sitting around and waiting for something to happen or not happen.
I feel like I've hijacked this thread with my negative news, and I want to hear about all of your good news, too. How is everyone else doing?

 

[Pinga]

NYColoradoan Love and big to you. The same thing happened to me in early December. It was such a happy day untill I started to bleed, Dd met father Christmas for the 1st time and we had seen reindeers too, then everything fell to bits. My Dr told me that the usual reason for this to happen is that something wasn't right for the pg to continue, and that it will happen for us when everything is right, and it will for you too

I am very nervous about this pg, due af tomorrow or wednesday. Temp dropped today as it always does before the witch arrives. 13dpo today and I am worried that the ic are not getting any darker. Although I think I was several days late with Dd before I got a strong line. Heres hoping...
Slept so badly last night and had rubbish dreams hope the crappy temp was due to that. Have app with GP next wednesday...hate the waiting.

and plenty of decaff whilst we wait it out ladies.
Hows everyone else doing?

 

[AimeeM]

Good luck for your blood results today NY xxx
