Hi,

I've just taken this test and got this result. I've only taken the one so it might be false but it looks positive.

I've had no symptoms but just wanted to test as I was worried I might not be able to for some reason after having a chemical and mmc over the last few months.

I'm about 12/13 dpi possibly, period due Tuesday. So worried it will turn to another chemical but also happy I can hopefully still conceive as such! I don't want to tell husband yet for it to be another failure Sad

I don't know how to feel I have that adrenaline rush right now but so so scared to go through another mc. I've had another chemical start of last year also, ttc first baby.

I don't really know what I want from this post, just wanted to tell someone!

Is this positive - handhold please?

Thank you all. Epu rang me back yesterday and I went in and collected a prescription for 5mg folic acid & progesterone pessaries to be taken twice daily. I started yesterday so hopefully this is it now.

I have a viability scan the week in two weeks time! I apparently do not need aspirin as all my blood work came back fine. Just praying this all works now and the little one sticks.

Doctors will prescribe 5mg folic acid and 75mcg aspirin.

It's def positive, you literally can't see anything at all when it's negative even when you shine a torch through

Thanks so much everyone  I told dh yesterday, I couldn't wait any longer. He's trying to be sensible because of what's happened before but he's super excited I can tell.

Still waiting on epu! I think it was about 6 weeks I mc last time even though I didn't find out until later so desperately want to get in soon.

@MyDcAreMarvel I don't live in Liverpool but thank you so much! Silly question do drs prescribe an actual amount or is it just more than what's in the pregnacare tablets? I'm thinking what if I don't take what they want but then fa doesn't do any harm does it? And the aspirin is a lower amount too isn't it. Think they wanted me to have progesterone pessaries also but obv will need to wait for them.

Lovely lines! Congratulations 🎉🎉

anon812 · 23/07/2019 18:20

Definitely positive congrats!

MyDcAreMarvel · 23/07/2019 16:21

If you do buy them take the whole tablet not 1/4.

MyDcAreMarvel · 23/07/2019 16:20

These are the ones I bought . If you live in Liverpool I have plenty spare. Huge bottle!

Thank you @MyDcAreMarvel I might do that. I think there was something else they wanted me to have and progesterone pessaries but I might start myself off on the aspirin and folic acid anyway.

You can buy 75mg aspirin at any chemist and high dose folic acid next day prime delivery from amazon.

Thank you GrinGrin
Still haven't told dh yet!! Waiting on a call back from epu. It seems like every day is precious when I'm not taking any medication. I feel a lot more chilled this time which is helping though!

Thanks so much ladies.

I didn't make it to Superdrug yesterday but used my cheapie I got on the way to work as soon as I got in (couldn't wait) and got the attached.

Rang epu, hope they come back today otherwise I'll follow up. Want to get started on them ASAP to give this little bean the best chance!

Thank you :) @Michellebops just bought a random one from the petrol garage on my stop but realised it doesn't say what mui it tests so might not be sensitive enough

Superdrug have a deal with £2 off if that's handy for you 🤞
