  • Thinking of you lots Abi, hope your dh and dd are looking after you and giving you lots of hugs x
  • Sperm can live for up to 7 days so that gives you all the way up to the 13th. If your cycle is usually 32-34 days that means your af was due sometime around the 25th -27th which means you got a bfp at 10-12dpo. It's possibly you ov'd on the 11th then that would work with the dates. That means you could be as early as 5 weeks 1 day - 5 week 3 days pregnant. So you wouldnt see much on a scan. Don't forget everyone implants at different speeds so that could explain low hcg levels. Things could still turn around for you. I'm sorry if I'm being annoying I just want you to know its not all over yet and there is a glimmer of hope xxx
  • Lol! Thanks GG, your alot more in the know about it all than me!
    They had a good poke about (internal scan!) and didnt see anything.
    Ordered IC tests, Ov tests & clear blue digi off Amazon, double determinted to get pg again, I'm not letting it win!! (IT being whatever evil causes miscarriages!!)

    Good luck with your scan GG! X

  • That's what almost 3 years ttc and a million hours on the Internet does to you! I swear I could be a fertility dr now ;)

    Thank you, I am sick to my stomach with worry. I'm pretty certain it won't be good news but you never know I might just win the lottery tomorrow x
  • How did things go GG? Been thinking of you today! :-)

    Another one looking for news from gg. Hope alls well x
  • Well... my scan results are inconclusive. i have a gestation sac, yolk sack and a fetal pole but no heartbeat. fetal pole is 3mm so most likely too small for there to be a heartbeat anyway. the question now is am i less pregnant than was first thought or has my baby stopped growing.only time will tell. i have another scan on valentines day (boo) so we will find out then, dr was actually very positive and said she thinks i am just not as far along as i should be. there is a possibilty all is ok, but would mean i got a positive test around 8-10dpo, which is obviously possible. it may be an answer for the low hcg numbers but obviously doesn't help the doubling times problem. so we now have another 9 days of waiting on our hands to find out good or bad. the waiting sucks, if in 9 days things are ok i will obviously be ecstatic but if they are not and my baby still measures the same i will be heartbroken and it will only make the pain worse to think it had stopped growing when we seen it on screen today.

    ho hum. mixed emotions. One min i feel happy and positive the next i feel doom and gloom and its definetly bad! nightmare situation.

    How are you today MSM?

    And you too Abis?

  • GG sorry today was a bit inconclusive, but it's great that the Dr seems positive about things.
    The waiting sucks, no two ways about it, but at least there is still hope.
    Metranil dreams of becoming a neon,
    You don't even take him seriously,
    How am I going to get to heaven?,
    When I'm just balanced so precariously..
  • i completly agree, she seemed positive because of my pcos and irratic cycles, obviously if my dates were more accurate then things would be different. hoping and praying this baby is a fighter and is going to have a lovely heart beating away next week.

    good luck for your scan MV x

    Hope tomorrow goes ok MSM.

    Sorry that the results were inconclusive GG. I find the not knowing part very hard, so hope you are coping with that better than I would. Hope your next scan goes ok xx

    I'm doing ok. I went back to work today - it was fine. Haven't cried I don't think today? I rang the doctors to find out if I needed to do anything, and they said I should have a blood pregnancy test to confirm everything was below normal levels. I think he was trying to say that home pregnancy tests weren't reliable and that I wasn't actually pregnant in the first place which was annoying me - but it was difficult to understand him - probably lucky for him cos he might have gotten an earful :o The path lab was closed by the time I had done my other jobs and collected the referral, so will have to go in the morning.

    Bleeding isn't too bad today, neither are the cramps altho I did take some strong painkillers before work just in case I found them difficult.

    Meant to say thank you MV for reminding me about painkillers. I was still in 'pregnant' mode and thinking I would have to take paracetamol which don't really do anything for me. I hadn't even considered ibroprufen until you said :o It eased a lot once I had some tablets and had a hot water bottle. Am sure the entire terrys chocolate orange I ate helped in some way as well :o Not that the scales will probably agree with me :( Was very grateful for a hug from DH when he got in. He works an hour away - it was just a shame I didn't get an hours notice on when the bleeding would start cos it would have been nicer to have him here. Thanks to everyone for their support tho - it means a lot xxxx

    Feeling quite positive considering I suppose! Altho I always am little miss optimistic :o Hoping to be more fertile this month, get upduffed, and have my forever baby. Third time lucky n all that :o
    :love: Married my lobster in July 2011 :love:
