Hhhh....eee...lll....pp!!!!!

[blackduckies]

Any thoughts on what to do next?
No AF since ??? maybe Feb? got very light spotting and thought I was about to get AF but nothing still thinking tis my body sorting out since having DD (12months old)...
Remember in March thinking I was about to get AF anyday...nope..then noticed sore boobs and very stretchy and copious amounts of egg white mucuos..pushed the panic button and did a HPT..faint line at the end of time limit...went to docs and got a BT...it comes back as negative - but no HCG number!!!
But a neg is a neg RIGHT???Please tell me thats right? Anyone had a neg turn into a postive via BT..?
So another week has passed, sore boobs, achey ovaries, bloated, copious amount of mucuos egg white/ super stretchy/ fertile looking...what happens next? do I go back to docs and ask for a repeat BT? going to look really stupid...DH has had the big snip, but last sample still had live sperm 18months after the event..already got one bubs out of the operation and absolutely scared to death I might be BFP again..
Any thoughts /advice/insite/similar experiences and outcomes welcome, thanks.

I think you need to go back and get another beta HPT and u/s.

[blackduckies]

Yeh..I guess looking stupid one more time is'nt going to make any difference...lol
I keep thinking another week and AF will be here..but not sure if I really should wait any more weeks?
But no MS??but plenty of other symtoms..also Af symptoms!!! SSSSOOOO confused.

Happy Birthday to your gorgeous girl.

Hope you work it out soon and the results are what you hope for.

Some places will return a negative if HCG is below a certain number. You need to ask for a quantitative HCG test - that will tell you how much is there, not just a yes/no answer.

oh man that is extremely confusing!! i would be going back to the doctors and asking for another test, or a referral for an u/s just to be sure. so you said after DH got the snip, you got pregnant and had another baby?? hmmm....his sperm must be awesome swimmer!! don't feel stupid, it's perfectly legit, and something you need to get checked out, especially since it's happened before. all the best!!

[indie24]

I would go and get another bloodtest just to be on the safe side Blackduckies.

PS Happy birthday to the wonderful Miss Tilly

[MrsFabuloso]

Oh, Pam. Hugs hunny. How stressful for you. I would go back to the docs too. If you're worried about it, can you go to another doctor, maybe just a medical centre? And as BW said, ask fo a quantitative HCG test, then they can tell you how much HCG is in your blood. Then if you're not pg, there may be other hormonal issues.....hope all is as you want it to be

Hey Pam,
Happy 1st birthday to Miss Tilly
Have you got any home preg tests?? I would go back to the Dr and get another BT done ... better to know right?
GL hun x x x

[blackduckies]

Thanks girls for advice and birthday girl wishes!!!
I am slightly in denail I keep goign back to the no it can't happen...but!!! all the same best I go and get some testing done..the other part of me says if tis soo low it comes up as a neg it is'nt going to be succesful anyway..because I would have to be 8weeks???ish...we are just so busy and finding the time is hard I really hate dragging the kids into the docs especially with all the flu around at the moment..excuse, excuses..denial, denail...
babies are so gorgoeus and another one would make no difference to the clan...BUT also know I am finished...after Tilly they said no more babies... too much scar tissue... too much blood loss... close to rupture.... so it would be worst case for us if it came back as + plus mummy is too old and would'nt want to go through all those tests again..all the reasons why DH had the snip!!! anyway thanks and best I get in and find out for sure.

[MrsFabuloso]

Aww, good luck hunny. Get thee to a doctor!! Even if you're not pg, there's something going on. I will keep everything crossed for you.

[mummydreamer]

awww Blackduckies......i don't know what to say Lol. other than take it as it comes!! but good luck with it all and hope you get some answers.

[ezymay]

Oh Pam just saw this! Just want to give u hugs and birthday wishes for Tilly!!

[cheekyfrog]

Pam, tricky one! I think I'd be doing some HPTs and then making my decision from that as to whether to follow up with a trip to the doctor to request a blood test to check levels. Hope the wondering isn't doing your head in! Big hugs and lots of love and big birthday kisses for Tilly for her first birthday!

[blackduckies]

Bought some HPT got a faint line....OMG, OMG ,OMG!!!
DH is taking a stupid it can't be me approach..I just said well go get tested again, because I have'nt been doing anythign I should'nt....as if I woul dhave the time let alone the inclination...grrr men..but at the same time I kind of get where he is coming from..but very worried all the same.
Line is too faint for 8weeks..there is no way it is going ahead....I will use my other test in a few days time and see what happens.
Thanks for the support

[Nicambhar]

Hugs Pam... I'd be taking the tests into the dr with you and asking for an ultrasound. I can only imagine the stress of draging all the kiddies along but you better get checked out... Good luck darl and happy birthday to Tilly, I can't get over how quickly time has gone by.. Take care xx

[cheekyfrog]

Geez, Pam! Yes, like Suzie says, try to get an ultrasound done asap. You need to know what's going on. Boy oh boy, but I'd be taking DH back to the surgeon to get a refund... or something... ha.
Great big fat hugs, Pam. You are a wonderful, wonderful mummy. Thinking of you.

Another possibility is you Oed late and that's why the test is so faint right now. I Oed 5 weeks late with this bub and then conceived. My Ob said she's seen longer missed periods then a conception within her patients. The only reason I believed a HPT was because I had two that were positive with the lines and then a digital rammed it home for me! Also did you try different brand HPTs on each occasion? I had 2 different brands that didn't work for me when it turned out I was 2 1/2 months pregnant with DD and then another brand that was a really faint positive!

HTH hun!
