Early BFPs

Hi, does anyone want to come and keep me company? Currently ttc#3 and I don’t know how many dpo I am as my cycles have been a bit unpredictable for the last year but I’d say between 8 and 12 dpo at a guess. I had a chemical in September and a miscarriage at about 6 weeks in early November. This month has been the first month we started trying again and I wasn’t going to test early but after feeling knackered and iffy all weekend I did an impulsive test last night before bed and got the faintest squinter ever. This morning I tested again and got a faint but definitely there positive that my phone camera managed to pick up 😬.

I don’t even want to tell DP yet as the last 2 BFPs didn’t stick. I don’t know what do do with myself today in between homeschooling and the kids have picked today to be really motivated and not needing much help from me.

@Secretsquirrelisfedup at least with the tww you know if your period hasn’t come by X date you can test. This is indefinite Grin

DH does not want to talk about it yet which is a bit lonley, he said he does not want to get excited until we are out of the huge danger zone.

I’ve had a lot of nausea which I’m taking to be a good sign?

Are you planning to keep testing or is the once enough for you?

Limbo is so much easier with company. Sorry you’ve both had similar experiences though. I used to think the tww was bad but after knowing that it might not stick I think this bit might actually be worse. I keep flipping between excited and pessimistic although currently I feel sick and horrible so that’s positive.

I’ll join too Smile

I’ve just got a definite faint positive at 11-12dpo.

Had a chemical in the past so I’m going to be panicking for the next few weeks I think!

I’ll keep you company Smile

I’ve had faint positives this week following a miscarriage in December. My tests turned stark white negative again after a couple of weeks and then I had a positive ovulation test mid-jan.

I’m still not sure if this is definitely a new pregnancy or not as I haven’t yet had a full cycle and period, but I plan to test again in a few days to see if it gets darker.

This would be #2 for us.

Also this could be coincidental or not but another thing that made me test was messing around on my fitness band app which I’ve not remembered to check for ages and my usual resting heart rate is 59/60 bpm and has been for as long as I can remember but it’s been consistently around 79/80 bpm for the last 2 days.
