Hey all,
Would you mind if I squeezed into here?
I would ask if you had room for a little one lol but I'm not so little! Grrrrr BMI haha!
I thought I was pregnant up until yesterday morning. I started bleeding a lot of brown and deep red blood so we went along to the hosp for an internal scan. I was 5weeks 5/6 days or so I thought.
When I had the scan there was nothing there
I was so confused as we had got positive HPT from the 30th Dec right up to the 4th of Jan (when we did our last one and was still nice and pos!) I had done them at diff times, they were different brands and all "proper" ones, first repsonse etc.. To say we were confused is an understatement really.
The Dr explained about a "chemical" pregnancy. I had heard the term before but thought we had completely gone past the risk of that, as we were testing positive still long after my period. We are sad about all of all this but mixed in is the relief that our baby did not even get to the heartbeat stage, in some way and I not sure if my words will make sense, but in some way that helps us accept this more. If it had to end, whilst we are gutted beyond belief, this is the kindest way if makes sense. Sorry if that sounds rambled.
So, we have decided to jump right back into the saddle so to speak! It was explained to me that yesterday, the start of my bleeding would be classed as CD1. That feels weird as it was a very much wanted baby but now it's just a cycle day
I have 2 older children. My youngest is 12! I am 36 and hubby and I very much want a 3rd baby as much as we wanted our first many moons ago!
So now I have ordered lots of Preg tests again! BUT I am going to be very wary about testing and the Dr had said they will help put my mind at rest next time with blood tests done at a early stage for me. I think I will be to scared to rely on HPT's alone, but that fear may pass as I become a POAS addict again! lol!
That's my story! Nice to meet you all! Sorry for the ramble and I look forward very much to chatting with you all and cheering you on in your journey
Hugs xx
