I'm Currently Feeling: | Back in the nightmare zone - when will this end? Hi everyone,
Well, I had to go back for yet another blood test today and another scan. Until this morning I thought I was 6 weeks, 5 days pregnant, based on the date of my last MP. Distressingly, stilll zippo on the scan. At least, that was what they sonographers said, then they said (as if I wasn't there), "oo, that could be a very small, 4-week old sac." I jumped and asked them to point it out to me, but they zipped their mouths and kept mumbling that they couldn't be sure. Then they said (again, just to themselves), "that looks like a minor bleed there". "WHAT MINOR BLEED WHERE?" I demanded but again, they were reluctant to say anything more. I waited alone and in a very tearful state (no, not tearful, wailing state by now) on my own in a waiting room as my husband couldn't get the time off work to be with me. Total nightmare. Then the saint that is the head midwife explained to me it could still be ectopic, or I'm not as far along as they thought or it could be twins. So, more blood taken, and results were good. HcG still "going up nicely". So I've got to go back yet again on Wednesday for yet another blood test and another bloomin' scan with a different sonographer. The midwife said she thinks I'm around 5 weeks pregnant so this worry could all be for nothing.
All in all, total nightmare! Thanks ladies, had to get all that off my chest.  | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | It's so not thoughtful at all when they do that whispering stuff and don't talk to you, like your invisible and your not human.
Anyway I hope that you get a better sonographer on Wed who can actually give you some answers. xx | | | | Status: Offline

I'm Currently Feeling: | I'd have let my pregnant emotions go and I'd have flipped out demanding they tell me and not mutter between themselves. GAH!
