Miscarriage or Menstrual period?
Hi mommies, my DH n I ttc for a second child last month(Feb). My last period was 2nd of feb 2014, I run a 37 day cycle and my ovulation was 25th feb, if at all we missed d chance of conceiving, my period should come 11th March but was surprised to start bleeding yesterday(5th March) till dis minute. Went to d hospital yesterday to v blood pt which came out negative, did an ultrasound too but ddnt find anything to suspect pregnancy. M confused as d bleeding is accompanied wt cramps, headache and shoulder pain. Anyone who could b of help as to wat dis could be? Neva had my period earlier.

If the blood test came back negative and they confirmed the uterus and tubes are clean and no ectopic (yes?!), then my guess is you've had a shorter luteal phase than usual and your period came earlier -- doesn't sound like a Chemical Pregnancy, which should be a relief, but I'm sure you're disappointed as you're TTC. I would say take an anti-inflammatory for the pain (advil). If at any time, you feel the pain is too much or you're concerned about the amount of bleeding, go back to the hospital or call your doc. Hope you feel better soon and wishing you all the best on your journey!

Hi kaykaykay
I had the same problem in Jan this year.l was a week late though.l started cramping and feeling dizzy the dr did my Beta and itwas 8.Said l wasn't pregnant.l went back home and was sick and had a pain on the left side.A week later l tested and was a Bfp.Then when my af was due l started bleeding.I went for a sonar and said l had an ectopic pregnancy!I had the shoulder pain and my hcg levels were not rising fast that's why the Urine test took long to become positive.
How are you feeling now? If yu have pains in your abdomen see your dr asap
And rule out any possible problem
