Guys, I'm so embarrassed. She started taking my blood and I started feeling woozy and nauseated, and she had to stop in the middle of it. There is blood all over my shirt, I had to lie down with an ice pack, and then she had to finish it again later in a different arm. Ughhh.
I should get results tomorrow, and then do some follow up bw this week.
She kind of scolded me for not waiting a few cycles :/
What's her name?! I'm going to kind of scold her for being an insensitive bitch!!! (even though it's probably her job, I don't care - you're my friend and I don't want her scolding you during this happy time!)
I wouldn't worry about that. With a chemical, she's right. If you had waited, you would have never known. My first mc was a chemical and he said to just act as if it was my period and not bother waiting. The others were longer and he still just told me to wait a cycle. Fingers crossed for a healthy 9 months
She's probably just annoyed that she couldn't give you an EDD. An ultrasound should clear it up.
After I had my miscarriage, my OB initially told me to wait 3 cycles. But after I pressed her, she basically said she just did it to cover her ass so I wouldn't be upset with her if something went wrong. But she said if I could get pregnant, I could stay pregnant, and that my chances of miscarrying again were the same whether I waited or not.
Yeah, we don't really know much about the dating yet. I told her if I was basing it off when I started bleeding with the CP, then I am 5 weeks. I told her I had been having some nausea and she said it was too early for that?
I mean, a few weeks ago, she was telling me that if I hadn't tested so early (my period was a few days late), I probably wouldn't have even known...so then I would've just assumed I didn't get pregnant that month and try again, right?
She said its good I can get pregnant, but let's hope everything had a chance to heal :/
ETA: and now I'm worried about not being healed up, or the uterine lining not being build back up enough. Ughhh
Ok, she sounds really insensitive in general. So screw her. And I was having nausea at 4 weeks, so she can put that in her pipe and smoke it.

Umm I hate her. She sounds really insensitive! And it's not too early for nausea, I was throwing up from the moment I found out I was pregnant with Calvin at 3w4d. So she's dumb.
Thanks ladies I should get results sometime tomorrow. She said the hcg results will give a better indication of dating until an u/s in about 2 weeks.
I don't even think that's very true- don't let her talk you out of a dating Us. There is a HUGE range of hcg levels and it's not really a good indicator...

I had a chemical pregnancy and my doctor said we could try immediately. Years ago, no one even knew about chemicals because the tests weren't sensitive enough. Don't even think twice about it.

I'm not a medical professional, but what does this even mean?? I thought a CP resulted when you had a fertilized egg that didn't ever implant so your body treated it as though it was an unfertilized egg. What healing process has to happen after that is so different from a normal period?

I don't know. I'm not sure if it was an actual chemical pregnancy vs an early miscarriage. I'm not sure what the difference is. I know that the bleeding was waaay heavier and longer than a normal period. So, even if I didn't take the test when I did, I still would've known something was up. Plus it was like a week or so late. So I'm assuming she means that my uterus had enough of a chance to get back to ideal conditions..??
That all sounds reasonable - she's still in my bad books though.

Just jumping in...our had 3 chemical pregnancies in a row, and my normal OB said wait three cycles. And my RE, who I just met with, asked me why we waited and told me there was no reason to. Which is good, as I ovulated two days ago and we went for it anyway, though the third one happened just last cycle.
That test looks awesome and your doc sounds insensitive. Just look at that pretty line whenever you think about her unnecessary comments. Wishing you sticky thoughts and a wonderfully uneventful 9 months.
