Think I might be pregnant...and bloody scared.

Hi there,

The title says it, really. I'm not sure,...I haven't POAS. I'm on CD32, though, 16dpo. We've been TTC for about 3 years.
I had an mc last July, a week after my first positive test. Nothing since then and I was already starting to consider adoption. I just can't bring myself to taking another test and I'm terrified that it will happen again. I think, really, I'm just waiting for AF to arrive. I think she might just be late, despite there not being any sign of her (usually, she announces herself and is right on time). If I don't ever see the positive test and it happens again around the same time, it'll just be a late period...instead of another early mc. I'd just be annoyed,...same as every month.
I'm expecting her to be there, every time I go to the loo. Not sure I can cope with this for long.
Someone tell me I'm not mental and can wait until I would theoretically be six weeks. The nurse told me to wait until I had missed two periods, which would make me...8 weeks? Not sure I can manage that.

Excited, scared, worried and hopeful...all at the same time.

I can feel your worry & excitement & caution & fear... Wouldn't it be lovely to have one of those "I didn't know I was pregnant" babies? go on, POAS - get it over with. whatever happens next, you can't change one thing. Allow yourself some happiness :-) thinking of you

Hi Thatssofunny It's a tough one and depends how patient you are, I was one day late this month and had to test, I had everything crossed but it was a bfn. I would try and hold out for another week :)

I can understand your nurse telling you to wait. I had a mc last year and the nurse told me to wait until 6 weeks to test next time because in her opinion these early prediction tests cause heartache by allowing you to discover your pregnant so early and chemical pregnancies/mc's are very common and if you hadn't already tested you would just think you were late that month - I can see the logic.

Good luck!
