    Oh no cpoir. I'm so sorry it's not good news. Slow rising hcg can be indicative of an ectopic but it could also just be early. Were your samples taken 48 hours apart exactly? That's the usual doubling time to begin with.

    Will be thinking of you on Saturday. Xx

    50 hours apart :cool:

    I don't suppose there's much I can do right now. I hate the fact that if Saturday is no better then I just have to wait for the inevitable :(

    I'm wondering if this is happening because I conceived too soon after coming off the pill and my natural hormones aren't high enough. Wasn't actively trying but wasn't avoiding either x

    Yeah, being in limbo sucks a55. I felt worse not knowing what was happening. When I realised it was over I accepted it very quickly. If your numbers have risen again but only by a bit, they may offer you a drug treatment to end things incase its ectopic.

    It could just be one of those things. Not right for whatever reason. My current pregnancy is straight off the back of a miscarriage and so far it all looks okay. It's just one of those things I suppose. We'll never know.

    Maybe bean is just being a bit slow and will have sped up a bit by Saturday. Fingers crossed. Will be thinking of you xx

    Oh no. I'm panicking again :( Silly silly woman.

    A friend of mine announced his wife is pregnant today. Due the same date I would have been with the m/c. Don't know why its upset me. Perhaps i'm just feeling a bit delicate today :(

    Cpoir - good luck for tomorrow. Hope its good news.

    How is everyone else doing?

    I'm sorry Lily, but you're not a silly woman :grouphug: It's totally understandable that you'd be upset given what you've been through. I hope you start to feel more yourself soon, when is your next scan? I think we'll be 'graduating' around the same time IIRC so probably a similar time to mine if you've opted for the nuchal screen? Sending lots of positive thoughts and good wishes your way.

    Will be thinking of you tomorrow cpoir and hoping for good news :grouphug:

    Afm, I'm having a private scan on Sunday morning with DH just to reassure us both now the spotting has finally stopped - 20th June seems much too far away!

    Next scan is Tuesday at 9am. Feeling very anxious they are going to say theres no h/b :(

    I think my 12 week scan will be the week beginning 10th June as they tend to do them earlier here. Yes, we will have all the screening but I've already had a lot of tests to rule of various genetic conditions in previous pregnancies. Downs or any other condition wouldn't make a jot of difference to us mind.

    Good luck for your scan on Sunday. Come and show us a pic and let us know what EDD they give you :) xx

    Still not good news...301 hcg now up to 410 so not doubling. Spotting has started again today (first time since last weekend) but cervix is still closed and no pain. Got to go back again Monday afternoon :eek::eek: My arm is starting to look like a dot to dot...long sleeve tops for me next week otherwise people will be thinking I've got a problem :rotfl:

    Thanks for all your good wishes - Hope everyone else is well :D

    Enjoy tomorrow Amy and everything will be fine Lily x

    I'm sorry cpoir. Atleast they are giving you a chance rather than trying to end things already. Have they talked about prognosis? How are you feeling? I trust my gut instincts more than doctors and blood results or scans these days.

    I want to go to sleep until Tuesday. My brain keeps going into meltdown and I also have terrible backache :( meh
