I'm thinking I'm pregnant?! Going insane

Some one talk me down. I'm shaking. I can't stop crying.

We tried for years to have ds who's now nearly 6. Having been trying since to have a much wanted other. Had a few miscarriages early in so I really shouldn't be getting excited.

We were told by doctors we wouldn't have another.

One of my best friends died last week and in my grief fog I had sex with dh as I knew I was ovulating (after ten years of trying to conceive you're pretty damn sure when it's happening). I knew I'd get pregnant. I've never been so sure.

Look. This is a line right??

I can't breath. I feel like I can't move ever again.

Bermuda by any chance?

Sorry you've had such a rough time OP. Sending you hugs 🤗

Infertility is very tough OP.

I got obsessed with testing, and after lots of disappointments, it suddenly struck me that testing early doesn't change the outcome.

If I was pg, I'd have been pg- knowing either way didn't change the fact. So I stopped testing until I 'needed' to (eg was going out drinking).

That was the only way I stopped myself going bonkers.

catofdoom · 01/08/2019 20:29

Oh I've driven myself bonkers years past. Tested 10 plus times a day, driven round to friends house to demand they see a non existent line, had my period full on for three days and still insisted I'm pregnant!

I'd chilled right out the last year or so though.

just do a proper pregnancy test? im sorry to say but those ovulation tests dont look positive to me.

I hope you get what you want OP but test before you stress!!

Laylor · 01/08/2019 20:58

Really hope you get a positive. I'm 11 weeks pregnant and have been trying for 2 years. Me and hubby were about to start fertility in July and then on fathers day we found out we were expecting. I know too well how easy it is to get overly excited. Rooting for you
Good luck

Dh should be back any moment.

Another one who's been there OP. Be kind to yourself. Fingers crossed for the future if this time isn't to be.

Cantthinkofanythingrightnow · 01/08/2019 21:06

Fingers crossed for you Flowers

Blugh. Negative. Bollocks.

Surely if you DTD last week and were ovulating it's too early for a positive pregnancy test? Wouldn't count yourself out just yet!

catofdoom · 01/08/2019 21:52

@mcmooberry I'm 13 days past ovulation and period due tomorrow. Sorry, initial post was confusing.

OP posts:
Bellasblankexpression · 01/08/2019 21:53

Yes what’s the timeline again OP? If you only
Did the deed last week that’s definitely too early to test?

Bellasblankexpression · 01/08/2019 21:54

Cross post, ignore me!
Really sorry OP hope you’re ok x

Silverlining101 · 01/08/2019 22:20

Sending lots of love OP. Such a hard journey xx

mcmooberry · 01/08/2019 22:50

Oh no, how disappointing :-(.
Horrible to feel all happy and on top of the world just to crash back down. Am very sorry xx

Rivkka · 01/08/2019 23:38

Don't you still need to test first morning wee? If so try tomorrow

catofdoom · 02/08/2019 01:22

I'll test in a few days if I don't get my period but I want to clean the world and strangle dh so I'm assuming af is on it's way.

Although I was absolutely crazy when I was pregnant last time. Don't know if anyone remembers the 'crazy things you do when pregnant' thread from 6 years ago when I consistently lost my shit and ended up throwing poor dh's iPad in a puddle because he woke me chainsawing. Christ we were a nutty pregnant bunch.

catofdoom · 02/08/2019 01:23

@Rivkka I saved the wee from this morning and added afternoon pee to it (much to dh's horror) and tested with that.

Just curious, how come OP? (Saving this morning’s pee and adding to it I mean. I didn’t think it worked like that)

Bloody hell poor DH. Let’s hope you’ll be a bit calmer this time round if you’re pregnant!

catofdoom · 02/08/2019 13:27

@Bellasblankexpression I'm not really sure! It's not the hormone would wear off is it? Maybe I should test again this morning?! He bought three tests and I'll be damned if this is happing again so may as well use them!

I’m wondering if you are off the coast of Maine? I think I remember a poster a bit ago who lived on an Maine island...

Anyway, I hope you do get your BFP soon, op. 💐
