Hi Kaz, it sounds like you're definitely pg to me. Your hCG levels are low because it's early days. When I was pg with DS2 I got a BFP at home, but when I went to the Dr and POAS he said it was a BFN, as we were leaving I looked at the test again and there was a second line! I think the GP tests musn't be as sensitive?
What you are describing is similar to what I had happen last year & I'm afraid it did not end well. I had several + HPT's with one negative in the middle (all different brands) then got a + BT. I think my result was about 24 - 4 days later it was 12. By the time I was at 12 I had spotting which turned into light bleeding (way less than usual AF) which was for 3 days.
I hope your result is different.... I have seen it happen.
Had you been charting? My level of 24 was at 13 DPO which is extremely low so I knew things weren't right even before the spotting started.
At 3am this morning I woke with severe cramping and took myself off to the casey hospital. They were great. They straight away put two iv lines in me and put me on a drip, as they were pretty sure I had an eptopic pregnancy. They did a blood test and it showed my hcg had gone from 14 on Sunday to 41 today. So that was the first positive. Then they did an ultrasound which showed no evidence of a pregnancy. They said that this could mean its really early days, which I am pretty sure it is. THe ultrasound did show that I have a cyst on my right ovary and it has made me very tender and in a lot of pain. My ovary is about double the size it should be. They said that I have to look out for nausea, vomiting, doubling over pain and fainting and if I have any of those symptons get myself straight to hospital as the cyst has ruptured. Also I have to have hcg bloods taken every 48 hours until I get to 2000 and then I have to have a repeat ultrasound. They are thinking the pregnancy may have planted itself where it shouldnt and are telling me to not get my hopes up. THere are a few worrying signs. So for the next few weeks its going to be a matter of seeing what happens. I did another pregnancy test today and its still positive. Anyway, I am home and ok. I am on painkillers to take the edge off. I went to my gp this afternoon and complained about the dr that I seen last night. She said they have so many complaints about him, so why dont they do anything about him I wonder??
Anyway, thanks again for your positive thoughts. Lets hope there is a happy ending!
My sister also found out she was pregnant and told me yesterday! SHe is only about 5 weeeks. Funny considering our last babies were born 2 weeks apart. WIll be interesting to see how this all ends!
Oh wow Kaz, what a stressful day . I had a similar situation in January of last year and it was so stressful not knowing for sure what is happening. You rest up as much as you can and I am praying for a good result for you.
kaz, great about your levels, sounds pretty painfull. i went to casey at 4am a few nights ago they they were terrible so glad you got treated better that me. The doc told me that "nothing happens after twevle weeks os you have wasted your time". he didnt even examine me or anything!!
gosh i hope this is it, sound like it's just the cyst causing trouble.
