Hey Everyone!

Let me start by saying I have a Little girl that I had back in November 2016 via C-section. Ever since then my periods have been regular but they have been extremely heavy with extreme cramps during and in between periods. I have set up a couple appointments to go see my OB but they are an hour away and I’ve had to reschedule couple of times. They ended up kicking me out of their service so currently I am in search for a new OB.

Every once in a while when I would lay on my belly I would get what felt like a baby kicking which we ended up realizing was just gas so I just ignored it.

Since January I have only had three periods of which have all been irregular, either long or really short. Two of the periods were only 3 to 4 days which for me is short because I normally have 7 to 8 day periods. The other period was 14 days long. The bleeding has been a mixture between spotting, heavy and light there has not been a steady bleed.

When I lay on my belly feels like I have a knot. It hurts and it’s uncomfortable in a majority of the time it makes me nauseous. I’m not exactly for sure how long is this been going on because it’s been on and off ever since I had my C-section except for the knot. I have gained a bit of weight so I just kind of assumed that the knot is my stomach on my uterus being bloated due to me having irregular periods for the past six months.

My best friend is pregnant and she just invested in one of the at home Doppler’s. (The thing that plays your baby’s heart beat.) after finding her baby’s heartbeat and listening we decided to play around with it. I put on my chest and listen to my heartbeat which was anywhere between 90 and 105. We then moved down to my stomach I’m my uterus area where the knot is. it sounded like we kept catching a glimpse of a heartbeat and we just assumed it was mine, but we continue to mess around anyways. And we got a heartbeat. That heartbeat was 149! Confused we just continued to assume that it was my own heartbeat so we checked mine again. It was still at about 100 to 110.

I have taken and uncontrollably amount of pregnancy tests from January until now. All of which have came back negative. I believe a may have even had one or two blood tests done.

And now all of a sudden tonight we hear heartbeat of 149. After realizing that I’m probably just going crazy I called another one of my friends and spoke with her. She agreed and said I was crazy and wanted to listen. Every time we put it back on my belly down my uterus area, Whatever it sounded like they’re catching a glimpse of a heartbeat it just disappeared and sounded like something had moved. Whelen put it on my friends belly again to listen to her baby. Every time we caught her baby’s heartbeat here she would move away making that swishing noise. Exactly what it sounded like on my belly. After hanging up the phone with my friend we decided to give it one more shot on my tummy. And we got a heartbeat again. Still in the high 140s. After this we did check my heart rate and it did go up a little bit but nothing over 115. We tested it out one more time and my friend who is not pregnant and currently on her period, And we got nothing.

Has anyone ever used one of the at home Doppler’s and if so what are they know about them? I am going to call and try and get into the doctors to find out what the knot is whether it’s a baby or not it should still be looked at which I understand. But I’m curious as to what our anybody else’s thoughts who may have similar story of Aylor not knowing that they were pregnant and we’re or using the at home Doppler‘s or having irregular periods or anything of these lines.
