Well its been a rough night. I was having a dull pain in my right side from 9pm last night. I was able to get to sleep but then woke at 11pm. My housemate saw my light on and when she saw me she insisted on taking me to the hospital. They took bloods and booked an ultra sound for this morning, so of course I had to stay in ( knew I should have packed a bag but at least i remembered my socks, I remembered how freezing it is in the ultra sound room!) Well the bloods came back good hcg now 1400 (doubling every 54 hours) but unfortunately nothing to see on the US ( the net says it is unlikely you will see much till hcg is 2000). I have been ordered to rest (so miss my best friends birthday up the Sunshine coast this weekend but I know she'll understand) and have bt again tomorrow and another scan with my Obst. on monday morning. I know they are worried about it being ectopic but from what I've read there is only a 1 in 100 chance of this and my hcg would not be doing as well as it is. I mentioned to my obst. could it just be that bub implanted late and is still too small to see yet and he said thats very possible so I'm sticking with this until I know other wise. This would also explain my low hcgs at the begining and which would suggest I'm about a week behind where I though I was.
Sorry for the all about me post but I just wanted to update before I jump in the shower and get all unhospitaly. I'll keep you updated.
Just a quick update - spoke to a nurse today, she was lovely, my ultrasound has been moved to tomorrow at 10.30am, don't know what to expect, so i'll let you all know. No more spotting, so fingers crossed for a positive outcome.
Just a quick post girls sorry for no persies just wanted to tell Sunbeam i had a similar experience at 8 weeks. Had a terrible sharp pain in my right side for about 4 or 5 days and one sunday at work it was that bad i couldnt even stand up. I went into emergency and the doctor thought it was eptopic and i was stressing about that too but the pain was caused from a cyst on my ovary which is quite common on the ovary you ovulated from. The cyst burst and had no pain since. Hopefully its a similar outcome for you, keeping everything crossed and thinking of you xo
Sparkles & Sunbeam - so far sounding good, I'm waiting anxiously for some really good news from both of you. Sending you both good thoughts and lots of sticky vibes.
Sooo...i have some good news, bubs is measuring at 7w3d (3 days ahead what i thought) and strong heartbeat of 156 bpm. So relieved right now, No reasons for the spotting, thinking it was probably caused by the yoga dislodging some old blood. First hurdle out of the way and fingers crossed!!
Thankyou all for your kind words and thoughts.
Hope everyone else is well xx
Thanks for the support ladies. The pain has pretty much gone so now there is just the stress of waiting to see if my little bean shows up on monday. I will be 6 weeks and 2 days by then (not accounting for possible late implantation) so there should be something to see surely!
Sparkles- Whooo so glad your scan went so well thats awesome news.
