This isn't even a squinter right?!?

Have just taken that test and had decided it was negative after 10 seconds but that line appeared over the next minute.

I'm 15DPO and that was 2nd pee of the day.

Part of me wants to get super excited because we've been trying for FIVE YEARS!

I have PCOS (and have literally just started investigation, had scans, blood taken etc). Have lost 2 1/2 stone since February and this morning I have just gone from "obese" to "overweight".

I'm getting married in July and if this is for real I guess there's no way I'm fitting in the dress I bought 🙈

On the other hand, I got a positive pregnancy test about 11/12 months ago however I was spotting and bleeding from ovulation and for the next 5 weeks. Although blood tests confirmed HCG (which went down very slowly) I genuinely think it was the cause of a cyst (which I've never had before). The pain was the most excruciating thing I've felt.

Now...I've got proper AF cramps and it genuinely feels like I'm about to start my period. But as my luteal phase is normally 10/11 days it's looking promising.

There are so many things going round my head. OH is running me a bath tonight which he runs VERY hot and I know I shouldn't have 😞

I've also just taken up running (couch to 5k, starting week 4 next week) and really want to continue but I know I'm pushing myself when doing it.

And we've booked a hot tub place for our honeymoon!! 😩

I guess it's a case of testing again tomorrow and if all good giving the OH the good news (in a cool fun way I've had planned for ages!!)

Aaaaarrrgh, I just want to scream!!!

I (think!) I just got my BFP!!

@ApplePie86 I felt like I was coming on my period for 2-3 weeks and got cramps throughout the first 12 weeks but less consistent as time went on. Try think of it as things stretching down there!

Congratulations.

I had cramps too. I was so sure AF was coming because of the cramps. I’m about 9-10 weeks now, not had a scan yet but I feel pregnant and assuming everything is still good. My cramps were pretty consistent until the last week/10 days, since then I’ve just had the odd, small twinge.

Thank you! I do indeed have a million things going round my head. I've already googled hundreds of "can I do xxx when pregnant?" 😂

I'd probably feel a little better if I didn't still have these intense period cramps 😩

@extrababydust123

Looks very positive to me also 🥳 can you do a frer or pink dye test to be sure?
I have a CB digital I was going to use tomorrow but I could actually nip to the shop to get a FRER to use in morning instead.

I think I'm most concerned about it picking up HCG from a cyst so one of those completely rare false positives that people say don't happen but actually do 🙈

Looks like a positive test to me!!! 🥰
Do a proper pregnancy test though just to be sure!!
Congratulations, mama!
