    Very Scared

    I am getting very freaked out atm and was wondering if anyone had any experience similar to mine.

    In Nov 2010 DH and I decided to try for number 3, we have a beautiful DS and DD. We were very excited to discover the day before New Years Eve that I was pregnant. The joy didn't last long as exactly a week later he rushed me to the hospital it alot of pain and i was eventually diagnosed with an eptopic pg. I was given a shot of methotrexate and 6 weeks later given the all clear. But we had to wait 3 months before we could try again.

    After six months of TTC, in Sep 2011 I found out I was pg again and was excited but cautious till I had the us at 6 weeks to check for another eptopic. At 6 weeks and 2 days we saw out little bub right were it should be with a strong heartbeat. But 3 weeks later at my next ob appointment we were shattered to find out that out little one had passed away.

    We decided to try again straight away and now I am totally freaking out. I did OPK this month and didn't get a positive at all. I stopped testing the day I believed I should have ovulated and it was still negative (the tests were getting so expensive). I figured that I either didn't ovulate or were going to ovulate late. So my period was due Mon/Tue this week but nothing. I did a test on Sunday and yesterday and both were negative. But did another one this afternoon and there is a faint positive. My boobs are bigger and are starting to show veins. Has anyone else had such a late positive pg test and gone on to have a successful pregnancy? I'm just really worried as I know that eptopics can show up late. I'm going to do another one first thing in the morning and then ring my OB.

    if you ovulated late then the test would be late.

    also after a mc our bodies can take a while to get back into the usual swing, so it is common to have irregular cycles afterwards.

    *big hugs* I really hope there is a little sticky one in there for you!!

    Thank you.

    I did another test this morning and again got a faint positive. So went out and got a digital pg test, I figured that it was better to get a definative yes or no not trying to see a line that may or may not be there, it was positive. Rang my OB and his receptionist said to go down and have a blood test. I spoke to him briefly and he wants a blood test done today, Monday and then see him on Tuesday. He test for quantative Beta HCG and progestrone.

    Last night I could hadly keep my eyes open after about 7pm and I've been having alot of aching pains like my period is about to start. I have had this before (but not with the ectopic so hopefully that is a good sign) and was told that it is most likely stetching pain.

    So now I just have to wait till Tuesday and hope that my levels have close to doubled.
