Worried

[Toomanytoomany]

Its not looking good to me, im still in no pain today but it appears to have gotten a bit worse, and a bit brighter red. I went to the hospital and they just did bloods and said all was ok in that depatment, but given i had U/S on wednesday it was pointless doing another so soon as they doubted nothing would have changed. I just want to cry.

It isn't necessarily bad news - I bled like a period for ten weeks, sometimes bright blood, sometimes brown. While it's probably sensible to acknowledge that there might be something wrong, it's no guarantee that things aren't going well either! Hang in there.

It might be reassuring if you can have serial quantitative HCGs done - they can test the level of pregnancy hormone in your blood over a few days and see if it is rising as it should.

well i have a guardian angel in the form of the nurse at my dr, she read my file and went on a man hunt at the hospital for my results from today, my hcg is 15,500.........the last one done this time last week was 935 so she said all is ok, she has taken an interest coz she went thru the same thing, she has booked me in again for more bloods monday so fingers crossed i go up again

I'm glad you've found a good Dr and nurse that will help put your worries at ease UDD! Just shows that persistance can pay off!! :-)

Just got back from the dr and am somewhat shattered and looking for solace ofsome decription, nurse screwed up and my numbers are only 1505 not 15500. so on the 3rd of dec i was 935 to the 12th being 1505, im not doubling obviously, what does this mean does anyone know, dr says it is still a viable range for my scan dates n stuff but i just hope he isnt peeing in my pocket and tellin me what i want to hear. Bled a little more last night had some VERY small clots which i checked and they were just tissuey still no pain, just a warm feeling in my pelvis..........but i am not sure if that is coz i am consiously aware of everything down there right now. Please be honest with me what r ure opinions?

I'm not sure what to say... can't give you any medical advice, but just wanted to send you a huge hug and my utmost hope that yr little bubba is sticking with you. I know what it is to worry (story of my life / pregnancy) and I know what it is to lose a pregnancy and in my experience there's not much anyone can say that will make you feel secure until you're next looking at / listening to that heartbeat.

All the best hun. Bestest, sticky, strong-healthy-bubba vibes to you.

A quick note to thank you all for your support, i went to my ultrasound this morning coz i was still bleeding, and everything was still in place, then i was driving back to my dr and had a stich like feeling in my right side. When i got there i went to the loo and TMI ALERT and there was more bleeding and a clear sac! i looked at it and you could tell it was the bubba sac, coz u cud see where it was attached to the wall and it was in no way a blood clot, i kept it and the dr confirmed it so now i am in bed feeling very sorry for myself and thats about it. But thankyou all for your support anyhow.

SO sorry to hear your sad, sad news. What a rollercoaster of a day you've had with things going from ok to devastating so quickly.

Give yourself permission to grieve in whatever way you need to - have alone time (or be with friends), eat (or not), think about yr bubba (or distract yourself for now)... There is no right way, or easy way to handle it, as you well know, but you WILL find your way.

Hugs and blessings for you, may your 2009 be filled with a healing heart and new life.
