Think I have a bfp.. Crapping myself

Please bear with me, I am shaking while I type. Had a mmc in July ( got to twelve weeks but baby only made it to 9) obviously this is the most traumatic thing that has ever happened to me and my family. Have been trying again since September but with no success. Anyway this cycle I had really painful bleeding mid cycle and sore boobs so thought I was out. Just peed on an Internet cheapie even though I am not due af for a week and got 2 lines. Am preparing myself for it to be wrong but is a line not a line??!

A line is a line.

Sit down and have a drink of tea or water and just take a few deep breaths. A line is a line and so today you are pregnant. Nothing is certain, you know that after your loss earlier in the year but just keep telling yourself that today you are pregnant. I hope everything goes very smoothly Smile

Grin A line is always a line. Congratulations

I agree - a line is a line!! It can't detect a hormone that isn't there! Good luck!! xx

Hi purple, i could of written your post as I also had a mmc in september been trying since and got my bfp on boxing day. I can't tell you to relax really as i have been a nervous wreck but been trying to keep myself busy and not think too much. Haven't gone GP's yet or anything as don't want to jinx it. If you want to talk my inbox is open :-)

i always read on here that internet cheapies are the same low budget ones as used in gp surgeries and family planning clinics op.

fingers crossed for you. xxx

ThePollyAndTheIvy · 30/12/2013 18:30

Keeping my fx for you OP! A line is a line is a line, and like someone else said, the test can't detect a hormone that isn't there!
Thanks

Hi, I am in exactly the same situation as you. Had MC in July, been TTCing since September and got BFP on 28 Dec. I'd only POAS so I could chuck it out, was NOT expecting that result! I'm terrified too, but also delighted. Just need to hope it all works out. Big hugs xx

Thanks so much folks, until I had mc I never realised how stressful this all was and kind of took it for granted. Have just been beating myself up for having had pâté on Christmas Day which I know is ridiculous but I can't help it. If I was more tech minded I would put a pic of this bloody test on as the only person in is dd who I don't want to tell after last time!!!!

God this whole thing is driving mad. Have now done 3 Internet cheapie tests, I clearblue digi and one clearblue normal..all positive but Internet cheapies haven't got massively darker since Monday. I know it's early days, not due af til Sun/Monday but I am talking myself into madness here. Not slept since Monday. I feel like I am just waiting for a negative test to bring me crashing down. Am convincing myself its a chemical pregnancy or the tests are wrong.

toots123 · 02/01/2014 11:41

Don't worry about how dark the line is. Its positive so enjoy it. The more stressed out you are the higher the chances are of something going wrong. I cant imagine how your feeling but relax and enjoy being pregnant and worry about what may happen when that comes
