any ideas as to what the heck is going on with me?

Oh it must be so frustrating! I find that as I get older I become less regular... so I lost trust in my regularity as such. My most accurate symptoms were as you described... the nausea and "fullness" around the bladder/uterus region. Also as you might remember with my situation last year, having a period also didn't necessarily "prove" anything either! It's so darn hard. I think ectopic would manifest as pain quite early... but I could be wrong.

Thinking of you!

An ectopic pregnancy would be showing on HPTs I would think, usually they are associated with very high HCG levels.

*hug* Rory, hopefully you can get some answers soon.

Thanks girls I wouldn't be surprised if I am just one of those women in the 1% who HPTs tends not to work for. I never suffered a drop of morning sickness in either of my pregnancies and if I remember correctly, the same hormon HPTs test is the one which causes morning sickness. Fingers crossed! I just want to know what is going on.

I googled other possible explanantions for no period and early menopause came up - I don't think that is me. My grandmother stopped having AF when she was 61 and my mother didn't go through it til she was 58 LOL!

Rory, is there any chance of getting to the GP sooner, like today? I think that's going to be your best bet in working this out that it's a BFP for you hun!!!

[Roryrory]

Nah, I work full time and it is just too much of a hassle. I had kinda psyched myself up to find out on Saturday, but knowing the doc may want to do a blood test I know I might not even know anything till this time next week.
I am worried that if I am pg and it takes too long to confirm it, I won't be able to get into the Mercy birth centre!!

Ahhh of course, yes! I booked into Cabrini at 7 weeks and "only just made it"... crazy hey? Goodluck this Saturday! I'll be having blood taken too: for my thyroid issue.

Ah well I now have an explanation - AF has arrived, so it was just a screwy cycle (or if I was pg it was for 5 minutes only!). Now I have no way of telling when I am ovulating I will have to deliver DH the good news - we'll just have to DTD every day once AF is finished
