Again i apologise that i have no personals..but as you all know this rollercoaster nver ends...first your happy to see that BFP and youv'e gotten over that first hurdle..but now theres just a alot of new stuff to agonise over and i am getting so sick and frustrated...
These are the latest results....what do you guys think...keep in mind i have had ectopics and chemical pregnancies before...
Could this be another chem or ectopic?? More bloods on Friday with a 2nd ultrasound next Monday! All the googling i hace done says i should be seeing a gestational sac by now! What do you guys think?
Emerald Star~ I have been thinking of you these past few days.I really dont know too much to be honest.Your levels are great but if there is no sac on an u/s then it could be either of the 2 you said. Im soooo very sorry.This must be so hard to deal with.All the questions that must be in your thoughts!! Do let us know how you go.
Hopefully someone else on the forum might know more.Dont google too much either.You usually only ever hear the bad...trust me,i was on googling all the time and it caused me so much more worry than ease. xx
That's a very early scan EmStar - it's not so strange to see no sac. What did they say about it? I'd wait till at least 6.5 weeks or so before panicking Your numbers look really good!
ETA - or wait, am I thinking about heartbeat...? Sorry. I'm no good to you.
Quick reply, will do a proper one later when at work but just a quick one. EmeraldStar - how distressing for you, I'm sorry to hear that. I agree though, stop googling immediately! No one ever shares good news on the internet in the same degree as bad news and you will read only scary things. It's very very early for a scan. I know it is entirely pointless for us to tell you to relax/ not to worry, as of course you will, but please remember how early your scan was. Some babies just develop at different speeds. Know that we are all thinking of you and praying for a good Monday scan.
Right now at work and time for a longer reply (gosh my work ethic has gone through the floor...
Mindbaby - welcome to the thread and congratulations on your BFP.
Mrs Slyder - yes I'm due July 17th although I guess you are more likely to go before me? How exciting, two girls! I'm giddy about having one, having two seems like a fairytale!
Who was it who mentioned the Melbourne baby show? Where and when is it? I might have to go.... try and get DH into the mood, he's still a bit overwhelmed by the whole thing poor love. Although he is increasingly being treated like a slave at home, he's constantly fetching me things and making dinner good man.
Mitf - ouch, that sounds like it hurt. Hope the belly is ok now. I have noticed I am massively more clumsy at the moment. I seem to knock a drink over a day, and have burnt three pans in a week (a very expensive habit)
On the subject of purchases, I've bought a mountain buggy on ebay. Got a bassinette off a friend and a bath from next door. We don't have a car so will rent a car seat for getting home after the birth, and I've bought a (new) sling for carrying bub around in. I've been offered a loan of a baby Bjorn and a monitor. All of which is rather boring on the shopping front! I don't really like schmaltzy baby pics, so I've got three 1920s travel posters that I'm getting framed, one that is Australian on flying to England, one of Australia and one of India. They are amazing, you know that age of glamour type thing. I've also got a sepia style map of the world to get framed - I want the baby to know where Grandma is!
Yesterday was an appalling day - when furbaby went back to customs. Thank you for all your kind messages. I won't say that they didn't make me cry because they did, but they did help, and I thank you. I kept myself busy tidying, I will admit that we did have a cleaner yesterday too, and now our house is spotless for the first time ever. I put loads of stuff in the loft and tidied up the garden, bleached the stone flags and kept myself busy. It was hard work but the best thing to do to keep myself from dwelling on my sadness. And today I'm working so that keeps me out of trouble.
I hope you are all well. I've got hospital visit tomorrow and Saturday is big day - half way there. Hopefully I will be out of my blue funk by then.
