Intro and T&P Needed

I've been off BCP for two years and actively trying since July. On Nov. 30th I got a BFP in the afternoon on two Wondfo strips. The next morning (12/1) I tested with a FRER and got a definite positive. I tested again the following Wednesday (12/5) and the test line was much darker than the control line.

Fast forward to last night...I woke up to pee and had some brown spotting on the TP. This continued every time I wiped, so I called the Dr. this a.m. She had me come in and they did a urine test which showed that I am still pregnant as of right now, but it also showed blood in my urine. She did a pelvic exam and said that everything looked good and that I might be spotting b/c of the increased blood flow to the cervix. She also did an internal ultrasound and saw the gestational sac but no fetal pole or yolk sac. She estimated that I was about 4-5 weeks based on what she saw. However, my LMP was Oct. 30. My cycles are very irregular, typically lasing around 40 days. I also spotted on Nov. 13.

 She did bloodwork to check my levels and I have to go back on Thursday for more bloodwork and then back Monday to see her. I'm so worried that this preg. isn't going to stick and that I'm starting to miscarry :( Any words of advice? Could I really only be 4-5 weeks?  I was gassy/constipated right when I first found out and slightly now. By boobs have been tender off and on the past few days, but that's about it. She told me not to stress, but I don't even know how that's possible right now.

It is possible that you ovulated late.

I would try, as hard as it is, to stay positive. See what your results are.

T & P for you!

T & P your way, and I would say yes it is possible you are only 4-5 weeks. I got my 1st BFP on 11/12 after having a BFN on a HPT on 11/5 and a BFN at the Dr's on 11/7. My LMP was 9/20. I had been having 42 day cycles, so in theory should have had AF arrive on 11/1. When I went to my Dr to confim on 11/13 I was told that I was probably 7-8 weeks already (if this were the case why did it not show up the week before). At any rate the following week I had some bleeding and the OB suggested I go to the ER. At that point they did blood work and an U/S and I was measuring 5w3d at the time (which according to my PCP I should  have been 8-9 weeks). I went to my 1st OB appt on 11/29 and they did another U/S and there was a HB and I measured in my 6th week. All to say that I am 3-4 weeks behind what I would be going off of my LMP.

 I have seen some women on here test positive as earlier as in their 3rd week.

Take it day by day and I'd wait until after you get your bloodwork from Thurs back. GL

Honestly, don't worry.  Like a PP said, you may have ovulated later than you thought.  I am 11 weeks and still bleeding.  And we're talking more than a tablespoon here.  But the baby is fine...I'm just someone who bleeds throughout 1st tri.

It's okay.  :)

The Dr. called this morning with the first round of beta s and it was about 7,000. She said with them that high she should have seen more than just a gestational sac. I'm going tomorrow for a more "high tech" ultrasound and the other beta test. Pretty much devastated :
