Waiting for AF after M/C, anyone else? OCBM

[Lindsay109]

Crys glad mam went ok!

I got my crosslines today... think I've missed it... xxx

Hooray for crosshairs!! Why do you think you've missed it?

 

[crysshae]

Yeah I bet they aren't as rushed.

I'm a bit down though as I'm spotting today xx

Awww. Hopefully it's just a cervix thing or whatever caused the bleeding before and no problem for the little one. You go tomorrow for your hCG level; right? Maybe if it's high, they'll get you scanned soon.

Fingers crossed.

Yeah tomorrow at 11.30 UK time. I got my results at 5 pm last week.

I think the plan is to re-scan me to rule out ectopic but I don't think they'll do that tomorrow

 

[Lindsay109]

Hmm, guess I should have read farther before replying, lol. Bluestars - I've heard that BD before O is actually better than BD on the day of O so hopefully you caught the egg!!

Nat - I kinda agree with that - we have public health care here as well and they won't give an early scan for reassurance. Last time I just had a 12 week nuchal scan (when I found out about the mmc that had happened a couple weeks earlier) - apparently a lot of people don't even get that, they have to wait until 18 - 20 weeks. The OB told me that next time I will have a 7 - 8 week dating scan, I didn't ask for it and not sure why she will send me for it, but I'm not going to argue because it'll probably make me feel better... I know it won't prevent anything, but might help reduce some stress.

Crys - glad to hear your mammogram went well

I hope the spotting goes away quickly... maybe it's just a little implantation bleeding, or your cervix...

I like the window idea

Some people have BUPA which is private medical care but not very many.

A private reassurance scan here is about £80

Ouch. Scans here- at the OBGYN are free. Well, we pay a small fee for health insurance every month and everything is pretty much included, blood as well. The NT scans, and other ones do need to be paid for, but we get reimbursed by both health and private health insurance. In the end we pay pretty much next to nothing.

Drink a lot Nat, dehydration can also cause spotting.

 

[Nat0609]

Thanks everyone.

Lots of water it is xx

I still wouldnt teat during the day id still go by fmu... try not worry too much and wait until hormone levels come through xxxx

 

[Nat0609]

I get worse results with FMU xx

 

[crysshae]

I'm glad the spotting stopped. Some tests have less dye that others...so that could be it.

That's good news that the spotting stopped. If you've been drinking a lot of water, that may be why the tests have not been as dark.

 

[Nat0609]

Thanks ladies, you all always have a positive and rational explanation for me xx

I agree, I don't think there's anything wrong with having a drink or two in the 2 week wait... and it's true, it may be the last chance you get in a while
