BFP After Heavy Bleeding

[mrsablett]

Blood taken this morning. Awaiting a call today with results. I have never been so scared.

Ever since the transvaginal scan on Monday I’ve been having very dark brown smears when I wipe. Cramping hasn’t been great either but actually, it feels like it might just be trapped wind! Haha.

I took another OPK today. I realise it’s not a pregnancy test but the cramps and blood had me worried. I got a blazing positive. PLEASE LET THIS BE IT! xxx

HCG hasn’t doubled. 45hrs between tests. 599 to 933.

They want to scan me tomorrow even though levels are said to be too low for anything to show on a scan but because my lining is so thin and my numbers are rising (although not doubling), they want to try and see where this pregnancy is before they close for Easter weekend. Great timing! M

Bit deflated but not giving up hope x

Hope ur scan comes out positive news for u.

They're meant to double in 48hrs so that's not even enough time for it to double. It was pretty close to doubling, don't give up hope x

 

[mrsablett]

Thank you for the good luck messages!

Still nothing visible on the scan BUT I am very pleased my lining has thickened to 7.1 today though! I am hoping that is a positive sign?

I am to attend a&e tomorrow (because EPU is closed over bank holiday) for a repeat blood test (48hrs after the last).

My weight and bowel gas made the scan a little difficult (embarrassing!). I’m told it was casting shadows. I have been constipated and suffering with painful trapped wind for the last few weeks. Maybe a pregnancy symptom?

Back for another scan on Tuesday should my bloods keep increasing enough.

Oh that’s great news, I have everything crossed for you. Xxx

Any updates @mrsablett ?x

What a roller coaster.

My blood came back at 1447. Not quite doubling again. Because EPU was shut it was a gynae Dr that called with my results. She said “I am sure you’ve been told already it is unlikely this is a viable pregnancy”.

Because my numbers aren’t climbing fast enough and they couldn’t find anything on the scan, they asked me to go straight back in for another scan with a Dr last night.

Yet again they couldn’t find anything anywhere! They scanned me for well over an hour. They would have done surgery to get in and have a look by eye but because I am showing no symptoms of an ectopic they have sent me home to keep an eye out for any changes and to go back tomorrow for a further blood test and a scan with a consultant. They have some concern that it may have nestled in my CSEC scar and that I believe could be very dangerous.

They have told me with HCG over 1000 and it being a week after a positive test they would see a viable pregnancy by now and offered me their condolences.

I am heartbroken but without being a crazed TTC loon, my consultant at ACU (Assisted Conception Unit) when I spoke to her after the 2nd bloods and scan wasn’t concerned about the numbers not doubling exactly and she also said that sometimes the pregnancy can not show on a scan until numbers are much higher.

If I wasn’t high risk from previous losses and being scanned so early, I’d be plodding along my 12 weeks happily oblivious to any of this.

I took another test this morning for what it was worth and my numbers are climbing for sure. Insane strong positive before the control line even showed up.

I am as prepared as I can be for the worst but until they find this baby, I am holding on to a tiny teeny bit of hope xx

 

[TTC no2]

Holding on to hope for u too x

 

[CrazyChic]

I'm just caught up. Wow what a roller coaster.

I hope you get some answers Tuesday, it's so horrible being in limbo. Try to enjoy your Easter xx

 

[WinterWolf]

Oh gosh what a nightmare! I'm hoping you get some (positive) answers on Tuesday. x

 

[mrsablett]

I’m being seen tomorrow at my local hospital. Which is great because I don’t think my nerves could have held out till Tuesday. I’ve been hypersensitive of ectopic symptoms all day!

Hi how did you get on today? Hope it was positive xx

 

[mrsablett]

The consultant couldn’t find anything anywhere again. I’ve had more bloods taken. I’m awaiting results. She said never say never but she very much doubts this will be a viable pregnancy. Aside from a miracle, I need to hope my numbers start falling to avoid medical intervention.

Bizarrely, right now I just want this over with so that I can fall pregnant again. We had to have Ovulation Induction treatment to get here and well, basically, it’s worked! Concentrating on the positive side of things X

 

[mrsablett]

Numbers still climbing. Now 2151. I have no symptoms of ectopic, so I’m back again on Tuesday for another HCG blood test and if the numbers are still going up, another scan that afternoon.

Fingers crossed!

 

[mrsablett]

Kind of you to cross anything you possibly can but I’m quite sure more than a miracle is needed now x

 

[kels1234]

What a journey! Truly everything works out for you, hoping for the absolute best! Waiting is such a hard thing. Thinking of you Xx

 

[Jen87]
