I have to admit I have been obsessing over ttc for 5 months. I've had 3 cp and been devastated. I've had sore boobs for 10 days and dizziness. My AF is due today, so I took a test. I'm not too sure if I'm seeing things.

If you can afford it then test as often as you want, if it'll put your mind at rest. Hormone levels double every 2-3 days so you wouldn't notice a difference each day. Maybe to save yourself some money test again midweek?

I always use FMU. I know I shouldn't test every day but with my last 3 chemicals I've tested and got a positive and the next day negative.

Ah, I didn't realise you meant 'keep taking tests to see if the lines are getting darker' - don't do this! My understanding is that very few women would see the line get consistently darker day by day; it depends too much on how dilute your urine is, what time of day you take it, etc. A lighter line doesn't mean that you're losing the pregnancy.

Yesterday's test on top and today's on the bottom, today's second line is a little lighter than yesterday's! Does it look okay to you?

I really don't know! It's happened so many times, usually I get a positive then the day after I get the negative.... I would rather know that just start bleeding.

It's tricky and up to you but I think testing daily is going to drive you a bit mad - and there's the chance that one of the days dilute urine will mean you get a negative even though you are still pregnant, and that would be very distressing. On the other hand, I can see why you'd want to know from a negative test rather than bleeding starting if it is another CP. I think that's what you should weigh up - if it is a CP (which I very much hope it isn't!) how would you rather find out?

Don't know if anyone will see this, I did a test this morning and this happened. I don't want to get too excited but this is the first second pregnancy test I've had after having 3 chemicals. My DP doesn't want to test till next week now, but I wanna test every day! What do you all think?

I can definitely see two lines, the second photo is especially clear. Maybe take more tests in the next few days to see if they get stronger then contact doctor. Hope all goes well this time x

This is what it looks like now, I know people say 'once you've done one test, there is no need to do another' but I'm just wondering if I should do one every other day or so incase I have another chemical?

I'm not gonna get too excited, just in case it's another chemical pregnancy! Thank you for replying!

MrsG280516 · 25/11/2016 10:41

If the second line appeared within the time limits then that's a positive, congratulations!

SpunBodgeSquarepants · 25/11/2016 10:39
