Test results

Well, I just called and did what I could, but unfortunately, I just have to wait. Geez, this is becoming such an uncertain time. I can only have a check-up on July 11th. Hopefully, the bleeding will stop soon and I'll get a nice little belly. Thanks for your sympathy. I'll let you know how things are going if there are any changes.

Best regards and love,
Bianca

Hi ladies, I don’t get it either, it feels so weird. I already asked if you could check, even just to see if there’s something there, so I’d have a bit more certainty, but they won’t do that. And you can only do another test once the bleeding has stopped. I’m really tempted to just call a midwife and go there, since I was allowed to choose, but I’m feeling pretty bummed now. I secretly hoped I’d get some more certainty today, but unfortunately not.

Called my partner, and he says the same: we can't do anything, I'm still too early for that, and I have to wait at least until next Thursday because then I'll be 7 weeks. She also said that even if we see something now, we still won't know if it's okay because they can't hear the heartbeat yet, so I'll still be facing a setback. I understand that, but I'm still unsure. Sometimes I feel my stomach tighten from the inside, like there's a little air bubble in there—maybe it's too early, but that's my only hope. I can still wear my own pants, but they're very tight, so now I'm wearing maternity pants.

Now I hope everything is okay and wait to see in two weeks. Thank you all for your replies and kind thoughts.

Love, Bianca

Hi hi, I need to correct my last post. I said I felt kind of pops, but I actually meant that my oldest is pulling inside my intestines. It doesn't hurt, but it gives a bit of a strange pressure feeling.

My question is now: I don't know if I had a miscarriage or what, but as long as I have that feeling inside me as if someone is pulling or has a pressure feeling, is there still something there, or could that also be with a miscarriage? Sorry for the silly question maybe.

Hi Ju, I haven't taken a test yet because the bleeding only stopped today, and I'm not sure when the best time is to test again. Thanks for your response!

Love, Bianca

Sorry, I wasn't logged in here. Again, haha.

Hi Ju, yes, I thought so too, so I did a test, the cheap one from Kruidvat with the pipette, so I put it in a jar and put the pipette in it, 4 drops on the test strip. But now after wiping, I was still losing blood. Yesterday it was completely gone, and now when I woke up, it was back again, but not in the pad, on the paper though. And that's how it was yesterday evening too, it was gone in the evening and back in the morning. But the test was negative, not even a light pink line, nothing. But well, it can't be anything else with some blood, apparently. Oh, I'm going crazy over this. I keep telling myself I'm pregnant, but I'm so scared of the disappointment if I get an ultrasound. Everywhere you read different things, so I've stopped because it just drives you even crazier.

Well, we're waiting and waiting. Thank you for your sympathy, Ju. It's nice of you, and of the rest too.

Greetings and love, xxxx

So I called the hospital again, but I get so sick just from calling the gynecology department. I don’t even get the chance to explain that I want to make an appointment for after Thursday, because then I’ll be 6 weeks. No, I get transferred again to the delivery ward, which I really don’t want. I go there, and the midwife says we can’t do anything for you; you’re just having your period. So I asked, why does the test then show positive? She said they’re not reliable. So I said, well, there are 3 tests that aren’t reliable—I took 3, and they all say I’m pregnant. Then she said, well, if that’s the case, you’re pregnant. And then I asked why I’m bleeding, and she said what the doctor already told me: you’re just having your period. So I said, how can that be? I want to see a gynecologist. But she said even they can’t do anything for you. I’m like, what? That’s weird. A friend of mine is just 6 weeks pregnant, loses a few drops of blood, and she’s told to come right away. And I’m losing blood continuously for 3 days, and I can’t even get an appointment. This is really getting to me; it’s so upsetting. Bah, bah.
