hello all, i have just joined. i have just suffered a misacrriage at 5 weeks 2 months prior to this i also had an ectopic pregnancy. i was suprised to find out that i had fallen pregnant again after undergoing surgery to remove my ectopic preg. on visiting my doctor he took some blood to measure my levels of hcg he repeated this 5 times as my levels were not increasing as they should. He told me that it was possible i was having another ectopic or misscariage. i was sent for a scan and discovered the sac was where it should be and the heartbeat was confirmed. as you can imagine i thought it was nothing short of a miracle, they told me my levels of hcg were normal for this stage of preg and not to worry everything was fine. Sure enough 24hrs later the cramps began they were like period pains but 20 times worse, the i started to bleed i passed a large clot which i can only asume was the broken down sac. I rang NHS direct a doctor rang me back told me to take pain killers and ride it out. 1 week later and i still feel bloated i have a funny taste in my mouth and a strong sense of smell, does anyone know wen a preg test will be neg after a miscarriage? i am sorry for such a long story i just would really appreaciate any feedback especially if someone has been through something similair i feel really unlucky at the moment we have been trying for a year, and i really am considering going back on the pill as i am afraid to let my body go through it again, they have already constructed part of my tube i really worry about that. i am sorry for rambling on i have read some of your experiences and have taken comfort in some of the things said, it is better when you know somebody understands. Thank you for taking the time to read this x x
