I think I had another c/p

madelyn07 · April 2011

Of course this is all just speculation, seeing as we aren't really trying (meaning we aren't seeking treatment right now). But..I really feel like I just had a c/p.

Reasons..

*I know I ovulated (not really a sign of the c/p but you know what I'm getting at).

*I was late (5 days). My cycles are always 28 days unless I have a cyst. We'll get to that later..

*I had spotting before AF showed and that never happens. Only time I've ever had spotting before AF was with my c/p back in October.

*I had all of the symptoms I had in October..super oily skin (my skin is always insanely dry), lots of CM and the chalky stuff, intense thirst, lots of cramping.

*AF is always very light..only heavy times have been my c/p and after our failed IVF. If I have a cyst, causing AF to be late, AF is super, super light. I've had multiple surgeries to have cysts removed, if there is one thing I know, it is how my body acts when I have a cyst. AF right now is really, really heavy.

*This AF is also very clotty and stringy..(sorry, TMI), only time that's ever happened before was with my c/p.

Again, obviously this is all just speculationg but..as someone who has been through 3 years worth of BFNs and only 1 pregnancy (c/p), I know the difference.

I haven't called my RE..I'm not sure that I will. I'd bet by the time I went in for b/w, my beta would be at zero. And even if it wasn't and they could confirm this c/p, it wouldn't change anything. It would *only* be my second loss so they wouldn't do any additional testing (already did the thrombosis profile after c/p #1). We aren't even sure we will ever cycle with an RE again. Of course, if we do cycle again, I'll mention it to them but..

Ugh.

And I don't really need confirmation...I'm nearly positive just from my body/heart right now anyway.

I'm so sorry Madelyn ((HUGS)).

mrsgcal · April 2011

Oh I'm so sorry hun. Did you POAS at all during those 5 days? A concern I would have is that it could be ectopic. I had what I considered a normal period and then the next day found out that I had a beta of 5. This went on for weeks and weeks and turned out to be ectopic. I ony say this because I would hate for something worse to happen. ((HUGS))

(you may remember they think but can't confirm my last cycle was a c/p and seeing your descriptions only makes me believe it even more b/c I experienced so many things you described ::sigh::)

I don't POAS during my cycle so there's no way to confirm whether I was pregnant or not either, but I had some of the exact same symptoms as you this month and wondered if I had a c/p as well. My cycles since my FET have been extremely short, and this one went about 4 days longer. I was starting to get stupidly hopeful, despite the fact we have been given horrible chances on our own. I spotted on Monday, which never happens. And now I have a heavy, clotty AF. This happened to me in May of last year, and I swore it was a chemical back then as well. I would rather this not happen because it is such a mind game. Sending hugs. IF is cruel.
