Chemical pregnancy heartache

[Lucy26]

Just an update to you all....

sadly I tested positive on official test date and it was chemical pregnancy positive....

The week before test date (5 days before) I had such bad pains and bloated so much I couldn't walk, clinic were very unhelpful so went to doctors. They had no knowledge of Ivf treatment so sadly couldn't help me either.

Two days after test date (last Saturday) I tested again only to get a faint line - but still a clear positive

Went to doctors Monday he was amazing and did a blood test & asked me to go back Wednesday for another blood test to check the hcg levels were increasing as I had a gut feeling something wasn't right.... Thursday 4pm I had a telephone doctors appointment with results.

Thursday morning I started my period very heavy & very painful. Lots of period pains too. I knew it was all over. Doctor phoned at 4 to confirm this was a chemical pregnancy / miscarriage.

Heartbroken, empty & distraught.

Cried for two days.... Had a lovely bottle of wine & a long soak in the bath lots of family walks to clear our heads!!!

But..... 2 days on & On the positive side I have a happy healthy 3 year old, my husband & I are so close it's bought us even closer. My body detected a problem & I'm very proud it's done what it's done from start to finish, my body has show me I can get pregnant so next time will be my time. I won't give up on this dream......

If at first you don't succeed.... Try try AGAIN!!!! - this is me!!!! 😊

I'm so so sorry to hear this. I know there are no words that can make this feel ok. Just to say I'm thinking of you and I hope in time you feel better. Sorry to hear about the lack of support from your clinic I'm appalled. If you are planning on another round of ivf I wouldn't go back there And tell them why. It's disgusting. They could've oftered you counseling or something. I would see your gp and see if you can get some counseling to help deal with this huge blow. And to get all those feelings out. I admire your positivity and think you're so brave. Remember just coz this happened does not mean that next time it wouldn't have a happier outcome. Wishing you the very best and sending big huge hugs your way. Here if you need to talk xxxx

I know you're hurting & heartbroken inside but in the short time I've been in contact with you through this forum I know you'll find the strength to get through this. We both live to fight another day 💪

The situation with your sister is awful and although it's not my place to judge I can totally understand why you feel the way you feel.

Hope that hubby of yours is looking after you well 🌹 x x

You're doing well. 2 months ago, I was in the same boat. It isn't easy. So excited and then devastated. Keep well and positive for the future.
