My third attempt to fall pregnant with donor sperm through a clinic... I got a faint BFP on a first response test on Mon 15/12 , when AF was 3 days late... I started bleeding on Wed 17/12 - possible TMI but bright red, with small clots, like a period with bad cramping. Two days later it seemed to be over except for minor spotting.
I'm clinging to that short time period as a chance that maybe it wasn't a miscarriage, it was just a hormonal bleed or a subchorionoc hematoma (I over-research)... but while I am faintly nauseous, which only started yesterday, when the bleeding seemed to mostly stop, my BBs are no longer tender like they were.
I'm clutching at straws aren't I? I've already un-told the people I told about the BFP, and it's in my signature as a m/c but I can't stop hoping I'm wrong...
Hi Sorry to hear about the bleeding It's hard to say one way or the other, but I know how it feels when TTC to hope< I used to hope even once AF has come that it wasn't really AF and to clutch at straws... Maybe do another test...? it should get darker. Or is it possible to get a blood test?
I think it's too early to tell and I'm that it wasn't a m/c. I would try and get a BT
I had bleeding in early pregnancy and so do a lot of other ppl so I hope you are one of the lucky ones.
Leash - you're so right about the googling - I should stop but I can't! There're just too many straws out there to clutch at.
P.S. Jazz is more gorgeous every new photo I see of her!
SaraJane, thank you for your positivity
Hmm I think the earliest I'd be able to get BT results would be Tues... *maybe* Mon... I thought of doing another HPT but the one I have left I think is more sensitive than the one I just used so if the line was darker it wouldn't necessarily tell me anything. If there was no line - well. That would tell me something I'm not sure I want to know for sure.
It's also hard because my mum's being all helicoptery and hovery and I would get immediate interrogation about results of a test, whatever they were. Not possible to do one without her knowing I don't think, unless I did it in the shower.
Well I just bit the bullet and did another HPT - more sensitive than the other was and this time there's only the tiniest faintest glimmer of a maybe-I'm-imagining-it line so I'm thinking it's time to let go of the false hope.
I'm also bleeding and cramping again today so I'd say it's definitely all over. Was fun to hope though.
