Nearly 53, definitely menopausal...or pregnant???

I know it doesn't sound possible but I'm being sick, can't stand the smell of my husband, have terrible headaches and am craving rice. I never eat rice! Also I can't bear tea and I normally drink gallons of it!
It must be a virus, right? No-one my age could possibly be preggers?

I thought it was a covid test too.
I've never seen a pregnancy test look like that! Can you take a picture of the entire thing? What brand is it?

Would a baby at 53 really be a blessing!?

Lsquiggles · 21/10/2022 13:46

I hope you get the answer you're looking for whatever that may be

A friend of mine has lost both her parents and she's not even 40 yet. They were older parents, not as old as 53. I wouldn't be counting it as a blessing if I'm honest.

Good luck anyway OP.

You know people die young, right? That’s an awful thing to say to the OP tbh.

Hi Sorry (genuinely) I have never seen one like that before. They must have changed since I last used one. They normally have a stick at the end.
I can't see a line but my eyes aren't great! Maybe pop into a Boots pharmacy (or alternative) I think they will be able to help?

Pixiedust1234 · 21/10/2022 13:53

get a covid test too

I thought this too but just googled and yes it is a pregnancy test. Didn’t know you could get tests that looked like covid tests but apparently you can.

So it is.
It looks just let me a covid test. I seriously thought you'd got them mixed up and had peed on a covid test by accident 🤣

I can't see a second line, no. Maybe test again in a few days

I know someone who had a healthy baby at age of 52 so possible.
When i was peri i frequently got episodes of feeling like i had morning sickness and certain smells made me feel queezy.

berksandbeyond · 21/10/2022 13:57

Oh god I hope for your sake you're not.
I'm 33 and I can't imagine being 20 years older and having a baby 😩

Muffit · 21/10/2022 13:57

My Great grandmother had my great Uncle at 51.
Hope you are doing okay!

MrsMacnair · 21/10/2022 13:57

yannalisa · 21/10/2022 13:48

It is a preg test

Can’t see a line so looks negative too me. Test again in a few days if you are not convinced.

mileaminnie · 21/10/2022 14:01

Yoiks! I hope app comes back and lets us know. I'm strangely invested

motleymop · 21/10/2022 14:01
