Going crazy (pg ment)

Hope you don't mind me still posting here, I still class this place as my "home" and since my pg still hasn't sunk in I don't feel like moving on yet.

I e-mailed my Consultant about getting more Progesterone and he said to collect some more from the clinic tomorrow morning, he also said that I should e-mail him again to arrange a time convenient to both of us for a scan in 2.5 weeks

Then I e-mailed him about the 3 faint bfps and the fact that "DH" still thinks that some of the booster is still in my system and he hasn't replied to that one yet, hopefully he will soon

I hate "pestering" people about this..I'm checking my nipples for changes, looking for more visible veins in my boobs (which I have noticed), running to the loo even though I haven't drank that much and STILL checking the tp, boobs are only sore to the touch at the minute.

Think I have gone off food from almost puking over chips earlier on, I'm trying to eat but feeling full almost straight away, an almost complete turn around from a few days ago...and headaches as well as a sore back every so often.

I have definately gone loony, I think I should be committed

vixen, Do you mean that you will get more progesterone from the clinic tomorrow, or getting more blood drawn? I think it's great if you could get more prog if it will put your mind at ease (I don't know what your prog # is). I was on 1cc PIO/daily at your stage, and my prog through the eighth week was only high teens/low twenties. They wanted me to stop taking the PIO (they thought my # was fine), but I was so nervous about low prog, that they let me go on prometrium vag. suppositories until the 12th week. Hope everything goes well tomorrow...and try to hang in there until your scan...hope the wait flies by for you until you could see your little bean. Oh, I think it's cute that you called it a "loo" ..never heard that before.

No honey you are not crazy, but you do need to relax. What are you doing that is remotely helpful to yourself? Nothing. This is not helpful. You are either PG or not PG and your boobs and nipples aren't going to tell you a thing. You need to accept on faith that you are PG and treat yourself accordingly. Rest, eat well, go for a walk. I agree that you need more progesterone, I don't know why your clinic wouldn't prescribe enough to begin with, but anyway, other than that, relax!

Definitely make sure you get the progesterone. I know how you feel about not 'really' knowing - it is maddening! But don't obsess on the pregnancy symptoms because what they are, when they happen, and who they affect is totally random.

GL!

I tested this morning and got 2 negatives , I don't know what to think now...I am sick to my stomach, can't eat...AF is nowhere to be seen, not even a spot.

I tried a clearblue and an First Response and they both only showed 1 line, what is going on?...I am so worried that I jumped the gun...I know I said the lines were faint but the test from the hospital still show the line even now.

I don't know what to think. Maybe your urine was too dilute. Did you drink more than usual before bed? This is hard to say. I'm sorry you are feeling so sad. I wish I could say something to make you feel better, but I know nothing but a + is going to make you feel better. Maybe it would be best to get a blood test, they are more sensitive. I know they don't do them as a matter of course there, but you need to know, this isn't healthy to be in such a state all the time.

Also it's possible you did detect something, and then it stopped progressing, I know that's hard to think about right now, but it is a possibility.
You are in my prayers sweetie, I hope you feel better.
Trina

I am so sorry that you are going through this rollercoaster. I know I have mentioned this so many times and its for a good reason. You are going to second guess yourself all the time and keep on doing HPT. The 2-3 weeks u/s appointment is going to be worse than the 2ww. I have been there not to make you any more anxious.

When I spoke to my GP I told him that it was an IVF procedure. It was causing me obsess on HPT and I was not sleeping which was unhealthy and he ordered a beta straightaway. As I mentioned before he did not request a second beta but I contacted a private lab in a private hospital and got my 2nd beta. I looked at the yellow pages and phoned a few of the private hospitals in our area.

I hope you dont mind me going on about the same thing over and over but I understand the rollercaoster and crazy emotions. The only way to tell for sure is a bloodtest until your u/s. Thinking of you.
