Briiliant news struth! So pleased for you! I have to wait until 8pm for my scan. Hopefully bean will have grown xx

9 -so sorry to hear about your Grandma my thoughts are with you x

GL JD today I hope all goes well.

I've just had my scan -was so nervous but saw gestational sac, yolk sac, foetal pole and heartbeat! Pic is on my journal. So relieved.....

That's just fantastic struth!!!! So so happy for you, this is your sticky bean I just know it!

Just got back from my scan. Not too sure how positive I am feeling after it. She saw a small yolk sac, but she seemed concerned with the color and length of spotting I have had. She rebooked me for next week to check for growth. This is exactly what happened to me in September, with getting rebooked to check for growth and then there was none. So I am just nervous, and now I have to get throught the holidays trying to not be stressed about it....

sorry ladies, just needed to vent my frustrations.

Its going to be okay.

Do like I do... keep telling yourself all the positive things going on in your pregnancy to keep yourself on a positive note. You saw the yolk sac, and of course the baby. So there is a little bean there... Do you know what your hcg levels were/are?

 

[filipenko32]

It sounds all good so far scan wise jd! Don't worry x x x

 

[MrsMoo72]

Well my 2nd hcg came back at 2322 from 1473 about 40hours apart??!!! Why is it still rising? I've gotta have a scan first thing in the morning....Soooo confused. Does this sound like it might be ectopic?

I dont want to be the one to get your hopes up.. but didn't you say earlier that it could be early pregnancy... I would think if it was ectopic .. wouldn't they have seen that in the first U/S?

 

[NewbieLisette]

Thanks honey - I hope you have a great scan. Keep us posted x

Firstly - bless you for thinking of me this morning That means a lot x

And secondly, wow - what is going on? Have you managed to speak with a dr about your results? Do you know when you ovulated? Could it be that you are earlier than you thought? I think those betas give you a doubling time of 60 hours which is normal. I thought that betas in ectopics didn't rise but just stayed about the same?

I am hoping for some good news here - I will keep my fingers crossed for you. Keep us posted honey x x

 

[MrsMoo72]

Thanks love, i had bright red spotting on the 1st then got bfp on 3rd so i think that was implantation? So don't know if it's possible i implanted late and so am not that far along? I really don't know.

No idea when i ov'd as i don't temp/opk/chart or anything and i only had 1 af since mmc, that cycle was 30 days so don't know what length this cycle would have been..

I think ectopics rise slowly but i don't know what's considered slow?

 

[struth]

Did you manage to speak with your GP or did they just give you your numbers over the phone? Have they said what they will do next? I think you need some answers honey

How rubbish that the drs will be closed for Christmas now - will you go and see your GP or are you still under the EPAU?

 

[MrsMoo72]

Its all been done at epau, no gp involvement yet. Dr google is just confusing me even more!!
I can just imagine that 2moro will be inconclusive so it will drag out a bit longer

 

[MrsMoo72]

Oh btw I had a chorionic haemorrhage with my ds and had a proper period-like bleed for over a week but he turned out perfect so I hope you're not worrying about it xx

 

[mercedes2010]

Hi! May I join in? I just found out I'm expecting a little miracle on August 28! We are so excited!

 

[filipenko32]

Congratulations mercedes! You're precisely 8 days behind me! X

 

[justwaiting]

welcomes mercedes.

Ladies I'm gonna go quite for the next few weeks so Merry Christmas and a Happy new year to you all. Can wait to come back and catch up on all your progress. Hopefully the last christmas with out a baby for us all. have a fantastic Holiday season. xx

 

[Jenna1984]

Had scan last night, bubs had grown! Now 7w 5d with a perfect heartbeat of 150bpm. It even wiggled a bit, it was amazing.
I'm sorry that you are unable to get any assistance, MrsMoo, that sucks.
Welcome Mercedes.

Happy Christmas all!

Xxx

 

[struth]

MrsMoo - are you back at the EPAU today then? I hope so. I would be thoroughly confused in your situation too. It seems that those betas are rising as they should but that they are perhaps not as high as they should be? I'm hoping that you have just got a slow grower in there. Keep us posted honey - I'm thinking of you xx

Jenna - glad to hear that the scan went well!!! What a brilliant Christmas present for you. I'm hoping to go at about 8-9 weeks for another scan (I think I will have to pay privately but it will be worth it if it gives me peace of mind). Congrats hon!

Justwaiting - have a good Christmas and New Year. See you in 2012!

Congrats Mercedes and welcome! I hope you have a happy and healthy 8 months with us all here!

Fili - how are things with you hon?

Thanks sweetie - funnily enough I'm not worrying! The nurses seemed completely unconcerned and told me not to worry so I'm taking their advice. It was very small apparently so they thought it would either bleed itself away or be reabsorbed.
