Just popping my head in to check on everyone. Been away on holidays down south for a family wedding. AF was very unusual this cycle, bled for 5 days then 2 days of nothing then bled lightly off and on up until 2 days ago. I should have been ovulating around that time so now I dont know whats going on. Took pity on DH and dtd last night and started spotting slightly not long afterward. Im freaking out because its so unusual for me to have this happen, and I have been extremely slack about my pap smears so my worst fear mind is conjuring up diagnosis of cervical cancer or something. Have IVF specialist appt on May 30 so just have to hold out a little longer.
I just wish I could catch a break :(

HI Freya
I hated the spotting. It was annoying. My cycle is all over the place. :hug:. My mind wanders to things like that too. Worst case type scenario. Scarey and unneccessary. FX for your FS appointment.

Hi Girls!
Hi Freya, I'm sure it's just an odd cycle, I've had that happen before, try not to worry.
Hi Porsche - where are you at with yours?
AFM - well girls, yet again, I'm not out of the woods. My HCG numbers have been rising nicely - great in fact, was booked in for my dating scan for yesterday, woke up Monday morning, gush of blood and clot......raced down to the clinic and they sent me for an urgent scan with me fearing the worst. Got a heartbeat - although the sonographer (same as the last time when she was so harsh with me) said she's sitting on the fence as it was 95bpm and the average is 100bpm for the gestation.....anyway she found a large subchorionic hematoma can you bloomin believe it!!!! I just cannot win. It's about the same size as the sac and while 40% of women get this in pregnancy the larger the clot the more at risk of miscarrying you are. So I've been ordered to take it easy and go back for another scan next Monday. Yeah, take it easy with a 2.5 year old while stressing about having your 4th miscarriage. I am feeling really seedy all day which i hope is a good sign but the clinic aren't measuring my bloods/progesterone anymore since I've technically have a viable pregnancy. I don't know what to do, how to feel, I just can't keep putting myself through this, why can't I just be normal!

Hi Ladies
Alison god your poor thing. I can't imagine what your going through. Relax yeah right. Glad to hear all your levels are rising. And your feeling seedy. All good signs. FX your luck changes soon.
I had a + BT with levels of HCG 701 and pregesterone 162. So good "strong" levels according to the nurse. I have another BT on Saturday to check levels and then I'll book in for the 7 week viability scan. I too feel seedy on and off. I've had a couple of moments where I thought I was going to throw up. I wish I could that would ease some of my anxiety. I'm not looking too far ahead. Just the little milestones like this next BT and then the scan etc... I'm not 'excited' at all just cautious. I'll be happy when and IF I reach 10 weeks.

that's great Porsche, what cycle day did you get 701 on, that's a good number for early on. My 14dpo level was 204, on Monday it was up to 27,400. But just to show how bad my progesterone is, I'm on 3 suppositories a day and it's still hovering around 60, sometimes it's a little lower!!! Good luck and I hope things run smoothly for you, I am praying for a miracle personally. xx
-
Alison - I'm hoping your little miracle pulls through for you. After all the crap this has to be your fairytale.
I got my 701 at 12dp5dt or 16DPO counting from EPU. I keep getting the wide eyed look from FS's nurses lol. It must be a high level. Good cause otherwise I'd be ina flap. I was getting + HPT's from 4dp5dt.

Oh Alison, you do deseve a break and a stress free pg (well as much stress free as possible considering it's a pg after a m/c so it's always going to be stressful). I wish they could give you the all clear hun, it just sucks! The fact that the levels are rising nicely is very good and a comforting thing. Now we have to wait for the hematoma to go away. I'm sorry you are going through this hun, I wish it was more plain sailing for you. Big hugs and hang in there lovely :hug:
-
Freya, I'm sure all is well, it's hard not to imagine the worst though, when you're body is misbehaving! Hope your FS app. goes well for you hun :crossfingers: Hopefully you won't need it ;)
-
Hi girls, looks like I'll be sticking around longer than I had hoped. I had my follow up scan after my hematoma was discovered last week, only to be told bub hasn't shown much growth and the heart rate has dropped. Waiting to talk to the specialist tomorrow but another miscarriage is inevitable. I am struggling more than ever, this is my 4th in 12 months, I was so positive this time as i have been feeling so sick and my HCG levels have been fantastic. Just goes to show. The question is, do I give up the losing battle or give IVF a go, I don't know what to do, how to feel anymore :cry:
-
Alison oh man the only think I can say is faaarrr out. My heart just sank for you. I am sorry you are going through this again, so horrible. Hugsx
-
Alison, just wanted to pop in and send you a big :hug: Wish there was more I could do :(
-
Hi Ladies
Alison I replied in the other thread but just sending big hugs and thoughts.
-
Alison, I also replied in the other thread.:comfort:
-
Thinking of you Alison :hug: xoxox
-
Oh Alison :( :hug: Dont worry about decisions right now, just process the next few weeks then go from there.

Just a little update on myself; still got random blood tinged mucous but bleeding has gone. Should be due for AF again end of this week, start of next maybe. I dont know anymore.
Life has gone to crud though, last wednesday two of the kids and I were in a car accident - our Tarago is probably written off and the other vehicle (at fault) lied to police and insurance, blaming it on me. The kids and I have been pretty stressed and traumatised by it; Ds2 has autism and he has not coped at all with what happened. Im still a little sore a week later but nothing dramatic. Finally they are assessing the car to see if its fixable or if we get a check to buy a new one. Then Ds3 was diagnosed with asthma, Ive spent the last two nights worrying while he coughs and wheezes in his sleep - last night nearly resulted in a hospital visit. I just cant catch a break, starting to think we are cursed :(
DG, Porsche - how are you girls doing?
-
HI Ladies
Freya - OMG how awful for you. I hope they write off your car. My DH has a commodore that he crashed and it should have been written off but they repaired it and It has been nothing but a lemon since. DH refuses to get rid of it. Try and push for it to be written off so you can get a new one. You've had a rough few weeks :hug:. I hope it gets better for you.
I'm doing OK just anxiously waiting for our 7 week viability scan. I'm obsessing over everything HCG levels preogesterone levels. Dr Google is being kept busy.

Oh Freya, how awful hun! I'm glad you're all OK. That would have been very scary for you all. I really hope you can get a break soon xoxoxox
