Hi ladies
As the title says, we have been ttc for nearly 2 years. I have PCOS so my cycles are off the wall but basically, my "normal" cycle is 35 days but it's not completely out of the ordinary for them to sometimes be 60 days.
Had AF on 16th June, and sort of half expected AF to be due again around 20th July...but it never arrived! So on 25th July (CD 40) I took a test...BFN. A bit disappointing but not a big surprise.
But then AF still didn't show up. Then I realised on Saturday (CD 58) that my lower back had been sore for a couple of days, I'd been having some crazy dreams, I was knackered and I was feeling really queasy. And I suddenly realised I could maybe, potentially, though unlikely on CD 58, be pregnant.
Asked DH to go and get me a test and he came back with a 2-pack of digis from Asda. Got two BFPs in a row!! :-o
But given my history of miscarriage and crazy cycles, I found myself really wanting to test again today. I did a Clearblue and it looks to be a BFN. If you really really really squint, maybe there is the hint of a line, but at this stage it may well be in my imagination :(
So I guess one of three things is likely to be the case:
-
The ASDA digis gave me a false positive. I know this is usually really unlikely, but Google says it has happened with these Asda ones before: www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/news/greater-manchester-news/asda-pregnancy-tests-complaints-results-12648449
-
The ASDA test says it detects Hcg at 10 mlU but Clearblue one says 25 mIU. So maybe, even though it's a few days later, it's still too early for Clearblue
-
Maybe it was just a chemical pregnancy, and it didn't end up implanting.
I'm so frustrated because I really try not to torture myself with POAS and I try not to test early and get my hopes up but getting a BFP at CD 58 felt amazing! But now I'm worried it was all just a stupid unreliable test.
I saw GP yday and she said that given the history of mc, she wants to send me for an early pregnancy scan next week or the week after so I will know for sure what is going on then.
But is there anyone else out there in limboland? I need some company!!
