To follow-up…
The cramping feeling has gone away, my lower back is still hurting from the pinched nerve, which made me think, hmmm, maybe that’s why my right side is a little achy, the nerve’s on that side. I’m still bloated – not unusual – and still bleeding – also not unusual. And I’ve been peeing like a mofo.
But I had the on-call doctor paged anyways, I just spoke with him. He asked me a bunch of questions. He basically said an ectopic is a possibility, but this early it’s not a huge immediate risk and that they’ll see what’s going on tomorrow morning at my ultrasound. So no need for the ER tonight.
Honestly I’m starting to think the pain is stress-related.
Natalie, I had a subchorionic hemmhorage w/ my last pregnancy. I bled on and off for the whole first trimester. The bleeding would come and go. Some days I’d spot, some days I’d gush blood and some days there would be no activity at all. As scary as it was, it never caused any real problems (in fact, it ended up being the least of my concerns). I know its scary, but hopefully your bleeding will subside soon enough and all will be well.
you mentioned the pain/pressure in your belly and peeing a lot (besides the fact that your pg) could you have a UTI? i don’t know if you mentioned that or if that was ruled out but…
i am looking forward to hearing about tomorrow’s ultrasound and i hope it brings you peace. peace of mind.
Honestly, I don’t think it’s ectopic. Little bunny would have traveled in a very strange direction if you ask me.
I think that this pregnancy just starts very differently than the other one and I also think that you’re as stressed out as they come (which, by the way, is completely understandable).
I really, really think that your ultrasound tomorrow is going to reveal something alive in there, and that the bleeding is a nuisance, but nothing really serious.
Burning a candle for you and sending you happy/huggy vibes.

I just happened on your blog one night at work. I am so feeling for you right now. When I was pregnant after a FET, I also had a subchorionic hematoma and had bleeding and horrible clots for 14 weeks. It was awful and I got to the point where I hated going to the bathroom because I was afraid of what I would find. That was my first pregnancy after 3 m/c’s. I was terrified pretty much until I delivered. Every little twinge and ache scared me.
I am thinking about you and hoping for a beautiful heartbeat for you tomorrow.
Thinking of you and sending all my best hopes and wishes for a happy ultrasound.
I am so so sorry.
Just saw your tweet and I am in tears for you. I am so sorry honey. It’s just not FAIR! How do you get a tubal from IVF??
This can’t be. I am sitting here screaming my lungs out, in my head anyway. All I can think is NO.
Nat. That is just the most sh*t thing. I don’t even know what to say. How can it go tubal being IVF????? Ugh honey I am so very, very, very sorry.
Good luck today, Nat.

Longtime lurker coming out of lurkdom to let you know how sorry I am. This SUCKS. :(
I’m so so sorry.
So sad for you and Den. How could this have happened?
I have absolutely no words.
I am so so so sorry. I just want to cry for you and Den ~ This sucks so much.
My heart is breaking for you. I am so sorry.
Thinking of you and Den today – I’m so sorry.
there are no words… i am just so sorry…
Oh my god, Nat. I am so so sorry. My heart is breaking for you.
I am so so sorry.
I need to find a cosmic blaster to blow whatever is up there right out of the sky. Fucking now. I just cannot believe how fucking unfair this is. Sorry for the swearing but – how much more can be dumped on a person??
I will never make predictions anymore – in hindsight my first comment on this post is incredibly cruel. I’m so so so terribly sorry :(
I’m so very sorry.
so, so so sorry……..
wtf, wtf , what the MOTHER FUCK! I mean this has to be some twisted most fucked up joke I have seen.
I’m aching for you Natalie. REally. I am so sad for you it makes me sick.
And angry. Fuck.
All my love to you and Den.
my heart is broken in pieces for you and Den. I’m so sorry Natalie. i wish I could take the pain away…
Nat, I am just so deeply shocked and saddened by this turn of events. I am just so, so sorry that you have to go through this!!!! It is beyond cruel and unfair.
I’m just so sorry. I wish with all of my heart this didn’t have to happen to you.
I have been following your site for a few months but have never commented. I just wanted to say my heart is breaking for you.
I can’t believe it…I am truly sorry this has happened and my heart aches and my mind just can’t comprehend this. I just don’t understand. I am so sorry.
I would not worry too much about an eptopic, can that even happen with a FET or IVF?
Wait – sorry, did not see your tweet, IM SO SORRY! I had no idea it was even possible with fet’s. And to loose your tube to boot, life is not fair. my heat aches for you.
I am truly devastated for you.
I am so sorry, Natalie. Words can’t even say it. I’m so sorry.
I’m also delurking myself to say how truly sorry I am. This is not right and very unfair.
