Pg tests - does this sound ok to you...?

Apologies in advance - after losing two this year, I'm paranoid as fuck and probably driving you all mad. I'm a little worried as I had some diarrhoea through the night and the only time in my life I've ever had diarrhoea was during my last MC. My test results are as follows:

4th Oct: 2 x First Response (sensitivity 10): both clear, definite lines
6th October: 1x First Response: stronger line
7th October (day AF due): 1x Asda (sensitivity 15): clear line, but not that dark BUT ALSO CB Digital (sensitivity 25): 'pregnant 2-3'

So how does CB think I'm more pg than Asda when CB is looker for a higher HCG level? Does that sound ok?

You sound as bad as me for how many times you POAS to really, really make sure Smile

You have every reason to be anxious following your previous miscarriages but please try and relax and not over analyse your lines. Whilst I was obsessively POAS following my first BFP I was getting all sorts of lines of varying strengths! You ARE pregnant, let your dating scan worry about the rest Smile

FWIW the first sign my friend had that she was pregnant was because she was having diarrhoea! She had even gone to her GP about it who asked her if she'd taken a PG test... It hadn't even occurred to her Smile She is now due in 8 weeks!

Hi Writer : I think we're kinda alike lol. I currently have five pg tests on my desk in front of me, all with the dates they were taken written on them Blush. I am obsessed. I'm really scared I might MC again.... Do you think the GP would check my HCG levels two days apart to see if they're rising properly? I'm going on Wed so thought I'd ask.

Wow Smile. I've read (thanks to a panicked consultation with Dr Google late last night) that a lot of women get diarrhoea in early pg, but I didn't know GPs actually considered it a a sign. It just freaks me out cos I never get issues in that area. I'm gonna be a paranoid wreck this whole pg!

Yup the tests state you're pregnant! If it's any consolation, I did 11 tests before I believed it.

The anxiety is understandable given your history. I was bad after a long time TTC but found having a mantra of There is no reason why this won't just be a normal, healthy pregnancy helpful to say over again when fears crept in (oh and DD is fine!).

I'm 16 weeks now RaRaz, still a paranoid wreck and I'm pretty sure I will be until this baby is born healthy and well.

When I first got my BFP I took a further 8 tests over the next 2 days Grin

Due to various problems and bleeds I've had I have still been testing, I even did one last week!! Shock That is how insane I am!! Grin
