*** October 2015 Mummies ***

Pumpkin - thinking of you today, hope it all goes well xx

Feeling a little shattered today to be honest! had my bloods done and am now looking forward to bed time! roll on 7pm!! lol

Hope you all have the sunshine we have here in Cambridge! It's beautiful today.
 
Thanks mumagain. Just waiting to be seen by the doctor - so nervous and I feel sick. You don't live far from me. I'm only 30 mins from Cambridge. The weather is lovely today
 
Fingers crossed Pumpkin!Fingers and toes :hugs:
 
Well again they don't know anymore! My blood levels have risen again by about 10%! So either it is a pregnancy in the right location and I'm just abit odd or it's still an ectopic. I'm going back again on Thursday but this time I will be having a scan first and then blood taken again. I've been told of I start to experience pain I have to go straight back.

Feel like a broken record now.

Hope everyone is ok this afternoon
 
Well I had an eventful weekend, rushed to a&e with suspected dvt in my leg (pregnancy increases risk and being immobile and dehydrated increases even more AND I have had one previously so bingo!)
I vomited so much infront of the Dr she got concerned and she couldn't find any veins to do a blood test because I was so dehydrated. I then keeled over on her so she put me on a drip and admitted me. Unfortunately because of the suspected dvt I was out on an old people's ward not a pregnancy or gynecology one so spent the entire time surrounded by old people with dementia shouting all night and a rather violent threatening woman with morphine addiction withdrawals. It was quite frankly terrifying and not restful.
The drip helped a ton and they've started me on cyclazine which has really taken the edge off, although they make me so dizzy & tired. Because I'm pregnant they couldn't do the blood test for a dvt so I had to have an ultrasound on my leg (she wouldn't 'accidentaly' slip it onto my tummy boo) and that was inconclusive so they have put me on 2 100ml blood thinning injections a day until the baby is 6 weeks old and I will be classed as high risk pregnancy and consultant led.
I'm home now and despite keeling over on the loo today and my mum and mother-in-law taking my son for me I'm doing ok, I've kept everything down so far today, still nauseas to hell but the meds are doing their job. I'm seeing my mw for my booking in tomorrow so I'm going to beg for an early scan as so worried what my hospital trip might have done to the baba.

Thinking of you today pumpkin, hope you get answers xx

#edit# just saw your update, sorry you are still no further ahead with an answer but at least no pain yet to suggest ectopic and it's going up. Hopefully you are just weird!!!

Oh my bunnykins that sounds horrible - glad your feeling abit better now
 
Thanks pumpkin :)

I'd love to see a movie or tv show to portray pregnancy in a normal way, ie not just the yey 2 lines on a stick plain sailing 9 mths no worry, pop baby is here! Instead show the constant stress, worry and complications, feel like maybe those who aren't pregnant might then be more sympathetic about how rubbish it can get! And that those 2 lines are not a magic guarantee there is defo a baby in 9 months.
Was reading a news article today on some woman out of a girlband saying she had been unable to get off the floor because she was throwing up in a bowl and I really felt for her but some of the comments on the article were downright awful saying it's just pregnancy get over it, and that she should be happy she's pregnant not moaning etc etc I was steaming at people attitudes and it's cos media shows them it's easypeasy!!

The scan wouldn't show anything probably bunnykins. Youd need internal at this early. You'd probably have panicked more had they tried lol
Hope youre ok . sounds pretty traumatic x
