I'm soooo pissed off with my body! stupidly did a test yesterday(2 actually) not with fmu, and only 10 dpo (never get a twp be4 13dpo)and got 2 twp!wtf???, so was getting all excited thinking wow 10dpo!!!.

Got up at 3am and did another...and yes was bfn...hense didn't sleep and did yet another at 8am which is fainter than yesterdays!!!! what a total muppet I am!.

So now am thinking my body played a trick on me, and has now changed it's mind...nice.

After the mc in May and chemical last month I'm totally disheartened with the whole ttc business...Dr has binned me off on both ocassions, and told me as I have 2 dc it will happen! but I'm 38 now and with a new dp, who has no dc!...have booked in again on Thursday, just not prepared to sit and wait anymore!...it's too much of an emotional rollercoaster.

Sorry for the me, me and more me post...but can't tell anybody in RL...af not officially due till Wed/Thurs...do you think there is any hope? or am I kidding myself?...any advice or experience with this would be sooo appreciated x

Sorry to hear you are feeling so disheartened.

It's rare to get a false positive - much more common to get a false BFN. The instructions normally give a list of things that might cause a false positive, so maybe it's worth having a look and seeing if any apply?

Have you been using different brands of test? What's important in a pregnancy test is it's sensitivity to HCG. The sensitivity of POAS tests varies from 20 IU HCG to 50 IU HCG. What brands have you used?

For an early test, you need to be using a more sensitive test than when you test on due date.

Perhaps the test you got a BFN on is less sensitive than the other three? Smile

I think your three positive tests do sound promising. Perhaps test again tomorrow to confirm either way?

Found this on NHS choices website.

"If the test result is positive, you're almost certainly pregnant." Grin

"If the test result is negative, you may not be pregnant. However, negative results are less reliable."

Good luck for tomorrow. I've got my FX crossed for you. Let us know how you get on! x

ljg72 · 13/09/2010 12:38

Thank you that was really lovely of you to find that for me SmileXX

Will have a look now...and will let you know what happens...I'm keeping EVERYTHING crossed X

Hello...did another test today and it was negative.
Due on tomorrow, so just waiting for af to arriveSad, the same thing happened last month. This month I just felt different if that makes sense? and thats why I tested so early, as usually do very harcore spin/combat classes at the gym so thought I was being careful as had mc in May.

Thanks MrsS2136 for your support x

ljg72 just to say thanks for your post on the other thread and I'm sorry you are having a tough time too.

Hi ljg. I was MrsS but have name changed to something that more accurately reflects how I currently feel TTC!

I am so sorry to here you got a negative result. I know what you mean about feeling different. Last month I got spotting at Day 24, had really sore boobs, felt nauseous, everything smelt funny and I was in a permanantly bad mood and tearful. I convinced myself I was pg and POAS every day from 7dpo. All negative. I felt that I could will the stick to turn into a BFP. All I was was disappointed and then completely vile to DH when AF turned up. There's no getting around the disappointment.

Isn't it ironic that we spend a substantial proportion of our lives TnotTC, using contraception, worrying we might be pg when we don't want to be and then when we finally settle and meet our DHs and DPs, it turns out it's not so easy after all. When we had sex ed at school I was under the belief that pg was guaranteed if you had and unprotected shag. Hmm

Keeping everything crossed for you for next month. X

Hi Knackered loving the name change! think I may change mine also...Smile.

this whole ttc lark is very crap!!!! and yes you spend forever trying NOT to get up the duff, and when you change your mind its soooo difficult! emotionally and financially.

My Dr advised me not to test early as chemical pregnancies are so common...but how do you not when you are trying!!! and also you just know you are!...(well was on Sunday).

Threw out all the used tests and had one left so thought fook it and did this afternoon...my faint line is back again! WTF!!! is going on?m af due tomorrow so we will see.

Here's hoping we get lucky soon XX
