Does the bottom test look like a stronger result than the top test?

I hope November is our month too! My AF is extremely heavy this month so the opposite to yourself, I have no idea if it's good or not. I debated about Clomid and trigger too but I will try this month again and then take a break. I hate the side effects to the Clomid! Yes let's keep in touch I'm feeling positive for us both Smile

Elles85 sorry to hear you woke up to AF. Mine is very light since my D&C, I worry this is a sign that something is wrong. I hope November is our lucky Month. Lets keep in touch and make sure we both get our BFP! Are you going to take clomid and trigger again this cycle? I'm thinking of skipping this month until I know where I stand with my blood results.

Hi Mrsbroodymamma I too woke up this morning and got AF which is one day early. So I cancelled my blood test today. So CD1 again and ready to start again. Fingers crossed for you that bloods are all normal.

Thinking of you today Elles85. Woke up to my period today and actually feel releived as this cycle was going on forever. Had my bloods done today so will know by the end of next week if there is anything up with my hormones. Will be looking out for an update from you.

Hi Mrsbroodymamma yes you read correct, I chose to have a D&C also I was 10 weeks, i have ovulated every month since. Your GP sounds bad and unfortunately most GP's take this attitude. Its soul destroying and I’m struggling to see any positivity today. I have my usual AF cramps today. I haven’t tested yet and still have an appointment for bloods on Wednesday. I have been charting my bbt this time and if I went by my temps they are good so I wouldn't read that much into it. I have 1 ds so this would be my second.

Elles85 did I understand correctly, that you too suffered from a MMC. Did you end up having a D & C? How far were you. I was 11 weeks but baby had stopped growing at 8. I ended up choosing to have a D&C which I now regret as I don't think I have ovulated since. Although I am getting kind of regular bleeds I haven't had my usual temp rise since the loss. I am panicking that I have gone into perimenaupause. I discussed my concerns with my GP but he didn't seem to take me that seriously as I already have kids. But he has allowed me to have some bloods taken this week to see if anything will show up. I had read online about clomid messing with your cycle length but I don't know how reliable the source was. I was slightly concerned about ectopic with my tests staying positive for so long, as I have read that is one of the risks of taking clomid. This month has been a real rollercoaster of emotions. Disappointment when I didn't appear to get a temp rise although I had triggered and taken clomid. Then the excitement of thinking I was actually pregnant with tests appearing to get darker at a stage when you would expect the trigger to be gone and then finally the test result rapidly fading. Elles85 are you TTC no 1?

I didn't know Clomid does that. I used it this month too. My AF is due Wednesday. Sorry to hear about your mmc, I had mine in April and it's really hard especially with these bfp's we got. I suppose it was the trigger shot but mine is still lingering on at 12dpt! Your pic still looks quite dark by the way

Sorry to hear that Elles85, I think I know how you may be feeling. This is so hard! I am expecting to get a complete negative tomorrow as the result was so faint today. I was due on today but have taken clomid this cycle so it could affect the length of my cycle. When are you due af. I had an MMC in may and was hoping to at least be pregnant by my due date. I am really starting to lose hope that this is going to happen.

Hi Mrsbroodymamma when is your AF due? I think I spoke to soon I did a test this morning and the second line is barely there. I'm gutted 😥

Mrsbroodymamma · 28/10/2018 10:53

My tests result has gone much weaker over the last few days. 😥 Just wish my period would start so I can move on. I am 15 days post trigger so feels cruel that I am still getting a pregnant result on a Clearblue digital. Hope your outcome is better than mine Elles85.

Mrsbroodymamma how you been getting on?

My tests started to get lighter then back to getting darker again! Just hoping for a sticky bean Confused

Lamaitresse · 26/10/2018 07:54

As far as I remember trigger shots take 10 days to come out of your system. Looks like a bfp to me - I really hope it is!!

I too am booked in for a blood test on Wednesday. If I get to wednesday without a visit from AF I will feel more hopeful. I too am a poas addict. my bin is full of all the empty wrappers. Clearblue arnt meant to be as sensitive as FRS so I think it's a good sign to have a positive on a digital.

Elles85 · 25/10/2018 21:51

Mrsbroodymamma i booked a blood test for next week 31st Oct. How about you?

It's like you read my mind I got a positive 1-2 weeks about an hour ago. I'm terrible at poas!

Elles85 Have you tested with a Clearblue digital test?

Mrsbroodymamma · 25/10/2018 21:46

I think that the top one looks the darkest although as you say indeed they all look similar. I am sure my positive is still from the trigger. I will have to try and be patient. Will you be getting bloods done?

Elles85 is the top one the most recent test?

OP posts:
Elles85 · 25/10/2018 20:38

They range from 6dpt to 9dpt

Elles85 · 25/10/2018 20:32

Mrsbroodymamma I think it looks like your bfp to me fingers crossed for you x

I'll put my pic up now of my tests.

MonkeyToucher · 25/10/2018 19:36

The second line is significantly stronger, so unless the second one was after a much longer hold (of wee) then I can’t see how it can be from the trigger - your hcg is definitely increasing not decreasing which the trigger would!

Chintaria, I think I am 13 days post trigger. Not sure if and when I ovulated....

Hi Elles85, I triggered on Friday 12th. Are you able to take pictures of your tests as I would be interested in seeing your line progression. I also used a strength of 5000iu and had thought by now it would have long gone out my system. The not knowing is do hard.... Wishing you the best of luck!

OP posts:
Elles85 · 25/10/2018 16:35

Mrsbroodymamma - How many days past trigger shot are you?

I'm 9 days past trigger and have been testing out my trigger shot 5000 since 6 dpt as Dr said it starts fading from then but mine seem to be the same!

Rightnow1245 · 25/10/2018 16:19

I have no idea when it comes to trigger shots! But good luck hope it is a BFP x
