Feeling scared... this is a good strong positive isn't it?!

Hi, we've been ttc #2 for 3 years this month and had 3 chemicals and a mc between Jan and Jun last year.

I'm currently CD26, I think 11DPO, and this was my test this morning. I know it's no real indication but the tests for my chemicals only showed from day AF was due and were very faint.

This is quite a strong line considering AF isn't due yet, isn't it? (Clutching at straws!!)

I would say so. My bfp when I was 6 days past AF wasn't that strong!

Eek, so scared and trying not to let myself get excited, but it's such a clear line! I have absolutely no other symptoms though, apart from wanting to sleep all day! And with my ds I was being sick from 2 days before a positive test until the day I gave birth, so the lack of symptoms is worrying.

I know it's easier said that done but try not to worry. It won't help. And don't forget, every single pregnancy is different so no symptoms right now is not indicative of anything Flowers

Thank you. I keep telling myself that. I'm not allowed to talk about it in real life as dh doesn't want me to get my hopes up. He wants this as much as I do, we've just been through a lot of heartbreak over the last 3 years and he's more practical than I am!

10Storey I'm in a similar position, it's killing me not being able to say anything in RL.

Congratulations and Good Luck Flowers

Aww tenstorey good luck. My dh always says that song is his to me (we have the lyrics above our bed) but we will share it 😊

Meant to add I'm symptom free apart from tiredness.

I've had four DC (I have 2 living daughters) and I had different symptoms with all four pregnancies.

Good luck to you too Unborn!!

Haha Oldbirdy, it was our first dance song - we'll agree to share!

Btw I lost 3 when I had low vitamin d; one at 9 weeks and two chemicals. Take a daily vitamin d if you don't already. My pregnancy with vitamin d boosted was the only one of 8 pregnancies with no bleeding / miscarriage in 1st trimester x

Ooh that's a very good tip, thank you. I'll stock up tomorrow.

Looks like another chemical. I got into EPU yesterday and they gave me progesterone and extra strength folic acid, but I started with some red blood and stomach cramps overnight. There's not a lot of blood yet but it's bright red but it looks like my period starting,

Oh so sorry. Fwiw my last 2 children were both conceived the cycle immefiately after a chemical; I think there was a little extra progesterone around. Have you had a vitamin d test? Your GP might do one. I had very low bit d and started a rescue regime 2weeks after my final chemical. Didn't know it but was already preg with my DD who was the most straightforward early pregnancy I had. Will be thinking of you x

Or, it could be implantation....Fingers crossed x

I've not had vitamin d tests but did get some yesterday and started taking them on your recommendation.

Would implantation not be before I got a positive test? x
