Posting here for traffic as conception board seems pretty slow. Apologises SmileConfused never had this problem before hoping the wise ones can shed some light

I Had a baby 12 weeks ago and we have only had sex once 8 days ago, according to my app that's also when I ovulated but my cycles are random still from being having a baby recently. We used a condom as well! It didn't break that we could see as we checked. Half the tests I've done have been positive and half negative! I'm not sure if they are dodgy or not as I forgot and only checked after 15 mins with both of the "positive" ones but the lines are also very pink so I'm not sure if you can get a false positive this bold?
So confused right now! And not sure if I should be happy or shitting myself.
Have included both "positive" and negative ones. The neg ones are mid day ones with a hold for a few hours and the positive ones are morning but had been for a wee in the night.
Thanks! X

8dpo is very early to get a positive whatever the circumstances.

I’d wait a couple of days and get a pink dye test and then you’ll know for sure

I don't think my cycle is accurate right now to be honest. Only had 2 since the birth 😅

These are pink dye tests and some
Of the most sensitive on the market x

Wait a bit longer then do a digital or a different brand

Pottedpalm · 10/10/2021 17:47

Maybe not relevant, but why are you doing tests if you used a condom the one time you had sex?

SALTyartist · 10/10/2021 17:51

Ooh those two pink ones look very positive rather than evap BUT you say we’re checked outside of the timeframe. I’d maybe wait (as agonising as it is) and try a digital. Was there anything in particular that made you want to test?

StripeyBadger · 10/10/2021 17:52

If you’ve only had sex once, then you have to be around 8dpo surely? I also don’t get why you are testing at the moment.

girlmom21 · 10/10/2021 17:56

I agree about not being sure why you'd test if you've only had sex once and used a condom. Are you paranoid about getting pregnant or do you think he's trying to sneakily get you pregnant again?

I've got two kids so I know the symptoms and feel a bit off so I tested

I had a baby 12 weeks Ago! Of course I'm slightly paranoid about getting pregnant so soon, it's been a bit of a surprise if it turns out to be positive! And not sure how it's even happened when I personally checked the condom.

I've got 2 children so I just had a funny feeling a did them, the first one was one of the positive looking ones so I continued to do them in disbelief lol.

My cycle is really random and before I had my last baby I have a longer lutal phase or something that makes my cycles different to normal so I think I'm roughly 8/9po but have no actual idea ☺️

Will definitely do an early digital, if those are evap lines that's quite bad isn't it!

I just felt a bit off, like tense and some things smell a bit strange but that could also be aunt flow on her way

You don’t need to have an idea of your cycle to know that if you have had sex once since giving birth and it was eight days ago then at the very best that’s how long ago you conceived.

You had sex 8 days ago?

A fertilized egg would have barely even have had time have travelled up to your uterus yet. Let alone be giving preg syptoms and showing up on a test!

financialadvicenc · 11/10/2021 17:57

Retest!!

Very aware of that but I did have what looked like 2 positive tests 2 days apart! I think it was a dodgy test as I've had negatives since

Must of been an error in the tests as they are negative now Confused

Have no idea what on earth is going on but I am actually pregnant! Blood test confirmed it!
