Worried sick. I did ring the epu and they said that it sounds like a chemical pregnancy.
The lines were so strong last week though and I had pregnancy symptoms.
Guess I just have to wait and see now.
I'm fully expecting to start bleeding in the next day or so :(

Guys I honestly don’t understand what is happening my tests went back up to 0.5 for the past two days so thought i’d have my peak today but it's literally gone back down to 0.2 I just feel like crying i’m so sick of ttc I feel like my body is failing:/ has anyone else had this and still got ur peak?

Does it look like the app has measured the line correctly? You can adjust the sliders if it’s done a bad job and get a more accurate result. Is it significantly paler?

ChaE05 · 16/07/2025 15:36

@Nightshift110I'm so sorry, you must be worried sick. This is the trouble when we keep taking these bloody pregnancy tests! At this point I'm not overly sure you will be able to get anything looked at from my personal experience. After I had my first miscarriage, I fell pregnant immediately after but my pregnancy tests weren't progressing over the next week and i just knew in my gut what was happening. I phoned the EPU and they wouldn't see me unless I was bleeding or in pain. Told me to take a pregnancy test again in a week. I did start to bleed later that week and that's when they saw me and took my bloods etc. But it would prob be worth phoning your local EPU? They might have a different procedure x sending love x

I had my bloods tracked at the closest early pregnancy unit to me (I'm in Ireland). Depending where you are, you could phone your closest one. Some GPs may offer that locally and you could ring your practice and see what they suggest too.

Forgot to tag you @Nightshift110 Let us know how you get on x

@Nightshift110 I am sorry, how worrying. It's possible that you're hydrated and your urine is diluted and so effecting the tests. For peace of mind, it might be worth asking to get your bloods monitored to see what is happening with your levels.

How do I even request bloods? Will the gp do it ?

@DorsetGirl89 ah i hadnt realised it was 7-10dpo that was best, lady on the phone just said 7 days before period is due..to be honest she wasnt overly informative. I've got the appt booked at my surgery, might give them a call and see if I can move it a bit later as no point going if im only 4-5 dpo!
I probably didnt word it very well, I usually start to get a rise CD 12 and then peak CD13/14 and it drops down really quick, so hopefully tonight or tomorow ill start to see that rise

Hey everyone. Just checking in. Congratulations to all the positives.

I've worried myself today .
I did my last CB digital just now , at 5 weeks 1 day, expecting it to be 3+ as I got a 2-3 at the weekend.
It's gone back down to 1-2 .

Any advice ? Suppose I just have to wait and see. Perhaps go buy another one to do in the morning .

Morning Ladies, hope everyone okay. Been a bit quiet as not much happening here! CD7. Have just got some more blood test results back that I paid for privately. AMH, T3&4, prolactin and testosterone. Everything came back within range apart from testosterone which came back low! I didn't even realise it was a concern for us women but I took the advice from the book 'it starts with the egg' and apparently its important. I'm a bit concerned now. Anyone know much on it or had theirs tested?! X

LuckyDuck93 · 16/07/2025 11:20

Hi everyone, just catching up, congratulations to all the BFPs 😃
@DorsetGirl89 i'm having the same issue, got my progesterone bloods booked (had to go for 1 day early as as it was a saturday) and now i'm getting a bit worried that i'm going to ovulate late as I'm CD12 and no sign of a peak, although I do have quite a short peak anyway. Its hard work this ttc business isnt it

hollyhocks2 · 16/07/2025 11:16

Ah @Mummysparrow that's a long time waiting for your 🌈 I really wish for all to continue swimmingly well ❤️

7DPO here. Hoping a little fertilised egg is making its way along and getting ready to implant nice and firmly into a cosy warm womb! We shall see. Lots to distract me luckily for the rest of the week, celebrations with family. I think I'll test Sunday which will be 11DPO.

I now have 5 pregnant friends. With those that are early on, I can't help wishing it happens for me this month so that our babies can be close in age and our mat leave can overlap. But I guess whenever it happens I'm bound to have a friend pregnant around the same time as it seems everyone is at it!!

Kerrylf · 16/07/2025 10:39

@Mummysparrow congratulations, I wish you all the best. I have been TTC 7 months since my loss and finally getting some tests from the GP. x

Mummysparrow · 16/07/2025 09:19
