not again :(

[olibecham]

hi ladies,

im pretty sure i already know the answer to all of this, but, here it goes...

i tested on wednesday and got a faint bfp using first response, again on thursday - same thing. went straight off to the docs and my hcg only came back at 6. this technically means not pregnant but the hpt was definitely positive and i was 1 day late for af with a few tell tale pregnancy symptoms. i was convinced my levels would rise steadily and that this had to finally be a sticker. surely this couldn't happen a third time in a row...?

this morning i woke up feeling 'not pregnant' and thinking it was probably all in my head i went and bought another hpt just to reassure myself. i was sure id see a nice dark line but instead got a bfn. another test (first response) a few hours later and still bfn. af was due 4 days ago now. still no bleeding but i guess its only a matter of time...

i just can believe it. was i ever pregnant? was it a chemical pregnancy? does this count as 3 in a row?

im so desperately sad right now i just dont know what to do. :gloomy:

my husband is supportive but i really dont think he gets it. i dont have a great gp and im not sure if this will qualify me to see someone at the repetitive miscarriage clinic at the W&C. I just want some answers to all of this but im really not sure there is any.

If anyone has any advice or has been through something similar id be really grateful to hear from you.

I'm so sorry the tests didn't show the results you wanted. Maybe be pushy and ask the GP to refer you anyway.
:hugs::hugs: Hang in there. It will happen for you.

Olibecham, I can sympathise with you! Last weekend I took a HPT (thought I ovulated early this month, so thought AF should be due) and :bfn:. On Thursday AF had still not showed, and I did feel a little queasy after visiting a friend so I did another test... which showed the faintest of 2nd lines, so faint I thought I was imagining it and chucked it in the bin without another thought. Yesterday arvo AF had still not arrived so I took another test and its defn :bfp:, but not as dark as the test line (and HPT's I used are supposed to be xtra sensitive). I don't feel pregnant, and certainly had no hints during the 2WW so I am paranoid and convinced I have another blighted ovum on my hands. I had a blighted ovum in November 08 which I didn't know about until the 11th week, but lacked pregnancy symptoms like I experienced with my 2 yr old son! Off to get bloods this week, but I am not holding out much hope!:no: At least bloods should pick it up earlier and spare me some pain & heartbreak.

My thoughts are with you, hope all works out!!

Olibecham - so sorry to read your post. I have had mulitple m/cs - anything from a 'chemical pregnancy' through to about 9 weeks. I've had a heap of blood tests to test for certain causes and was supposed to have a HSG (I think dye into the uterus and tubes) to see if fibroids or something were preventing implantation/growth. I think your GP should give you a referral to see someone who can hopefully prevent this happening again - if your GP won't write the referal, find another one - if there is a cause, most can be fixed and stop you suffering through this horrible pain.

:hugs:

I just wanted to give you some :hugs:.

That really sucks, and Im not surprised you're sad. Hope you can get a referral for further investigations, and most of all that you can do something really nurturing for yourself.
:hugs:

That really sucks. My thoughts are with you and I know I would be just as sad if it were me. I'd definitely find a GP who would refer you so you can find out what's going on.

In the meantime, here's something I thought you might need...

:hugs:

sorry to hear what u are experiencing atm.
i myself have had 3 natural pregnancies, first one was missed abortion(died at 6 weeks and didnt find out until 11 weeks).
second one was a m/c but never had chance to go to doctor.
third one i got preg after a failed ivf cycle but had spotting from day 15 of cycle and went on to m/c.
i have also had a chemical pregnancy from a frozen embryo transfer.
i have had all the miscarriage testing and chromosome testing done on myself and dh and they still cant find anything wrong with us.

best wishes, hope to see a nice bfp next to your name soon.
