Sheesh, what a crazy old time I've had. So I broke and did a test on day 6 post transfer and there were two lines. Yippy! But then that night I had some strong abdo pain, but it went away after a couple of hours. Wednesday the blood test confirmed the pregnancy with a high HCG, awesome I think, no ectopic etc. Saturday night again I get the weird pain, but this time way worse, so off to the hospital I go (with husband and 14mth old now at 2am) where they decide its probably an ectopic pregnancy. They keep me awake all night, make me fast (in case I need emergency surgery) and wait until after 2pm to do an ultrasound to find out its not ectopic, but a big ovarian cyst that is leaking blood into my abdomen and the gestational sac is right in my uterus where it should be. They still wanted to keep me in because of the bleeding, but I managed to get them to let me go home. Man, for someone that has spent such a lot of time in hospitals, I really hate them. It seems odd to me, that all the fertility specialists and gynos seem to have ultrasounds that they use all the time, yet at the Royal Womens, they don't?!
