Husband and I have had various losses the last almost two years. Last year we had our baby boy prematurely and heartbreakingly died an hour after he was born. Since then we have been trying unsuccessfully- some months, I think through the grief I would make myself believe that there was a line.

I’m 8 days post ovulation today and I think I can see a vvv faint pink line that came within the ‘window’.

I don’t want to tell my husband and get his hopes up bcos I’m scared that I’ve got line eyes. I am feeling a little rough which prompted me to take the test so maybe I am pregnant?

This was a lovely thread to read OP, I’m so happy it’s going well for you. It must be terrifying but absolutely try & enjoy it as much as you can, doctors will be keeping a close eye on you, you have the benefit of experience this time around.

So, so sorry about your son. He’ll always be with you & his new baby brother or sister. All the best Flowers

Yes, get a stitch and take the progesterone, there is no reason not too and they really do help. I’ve taken progesterone in both of my pregnancies after a previous loss and it also helped to reassure me. I think one of the worst things with pregnancy is the feeling of having no control, however this helped me feel like I was at least doing everything I could possibly do to help the baby.

CatkinToadflax · 16/03/2021 07:42

Lovely news OP! Flowers My DS1 was born at 24 weeks due to incompetent cervix. With DS2 I had two stitches placed at 12 weeks, plus progesterone from 12 to 36 weeks, and we made it to 38 weeks! I totally recommend going for one or other or both options. Good luck OP x

WhiskeyTangoFoxtrot1 · 16/03/2021 07:06

I've just read your oats OP and I was hoping for a good outcome. So so pleased for you.

I can't imagine what you're going through but I had a MMC and CP last year. I'm now a week overdue with my rainbow baby.

Unfortunately I didn't find a way to cope with the anxiety, and with your story, I can't imagine you will but I hope you do! It got easier for me when I could feel movements. And I just took it one day at a time, never took the next day for granted. I was "12 weeks and 6 days" never "13 weeks tomorrow" except to DH where I would say "if we have movement in the morning it will be 20 weeks" etc.

Don't know if this would work for anyone else but I just didn't like the idea of jinxing or expecting something that isn't guaranteed.

I hope all goes well and you really deserve this ThanksThanks

Ikeameatballs · 16/03/2021 07:03

No advice but wishing you well. When is your EDD?

Misspacorabanne · 16/03/2021 06:59

Brilliant news op! I'm sorry I can't offer any advice on the premature birth front, but I just wanted to say congratulations! Smile

DarceyDashwood · 16/03/2021 06:58

I haven’t been through what you have been through so have no words of wisdom but just wanted to say all the very best for your pregnancy and try not to worry too much Flowers x

EugenesAxe · 16/03/2021 06:54

Sorry! Didn't see your update - that's great news and I hope it goes all as planned.

Good to know actually that a 'line eyes' pregnancy post has turned out to be a pregnancy!

Pearl97 · 16/03/2021 06:54

This has made my day - and it’s not even 7am. I wish you all the love. Please keep us updated xxx

Enterthedragons · 16/03/2021 06:51

Yep defo!

EugenesAxe · 16/03/2021 06:51

I could see nothing for ages, but if I don't look directly at it, I have a vague perception of a line in the second position.

I hope you get positive news soon and I'm very sorry about your DS.

Changemaname1 · 16/03/2021 06:42

Sorry op no practical advise on the stuff you asked but I just wanted to wish you well Smile
