i dont really know why im posting, but im hoping writing it down will make me feel better....
the 4th of march i got my BFP (two days before AF was due)
had some mild cramping which progressively got worse and by thursday it paracetamol was not doing the trick, i was in work (i work in a hosp) and decided i would talk to the dr that was on call hoping she could put my mind at rest, she had my sent to A&E where i was then transferred to a gyne unit, i had an internal ultrasound which showed no evidence of pregnancy, i was crushed, i was kept in over night and had BHCg done which showed my hcg was pretty low 116, the dr then said as my levels where below 1000 they wouldnt expect to see anything on the scan anyway but they couldnt rule a out an ectopic pregnancy, i was kept in overnight and then discharged but had to come in for repeat hcg.
my second hcg had increased beautifully to 310, the mw said she was hopeful that everything would be ok but would need another ultrasound to rule out ectopic, 3 days later i was back in hospital as i felt unwell, hcg had not doubled this time was only 790
and the next 1109 they averaged that my hcg is now only rising by 40%
at this point i was told i was more then likely going to start bleeding and it would be classed as a chemical as the gestational sac had not been seen yet
but had to have another scan the following morning, i went in fully prepared for them to confirm that there was still nothing there, and to my amazement there was a gestational sac and yolk sac, exactly what they were expecting to see for my dates.
i had a lengthy discussion with the mw who said if this had been my first scan, and i had had no hcg done this would look like a viable pregnancy, found i had a UTI which could explain the pain i had, and although she said she is anxious about my pregnancy there is a chance that my little pip will progress! i have another scan booked for the 28th to see if they can find a heartbeat and she doent want my bloods checked anymore. she told me stories of two other woman she had seen in the last year with slow rising hcg who both went on to have healthy babies... but cant help feeling she is feeding me false hope
anyway thats me, thanks for reading xxx
