Me and my partner have been ttc since miscarriage 2 months ago. I’m a bit late so I took a test this morning- this is the result. What do you think? I thought it was negative but the more I look the more unsure I am. Let me know your thoughts? I was due 3 days ago xxx

Well, I just took a test wanting it to be negative (it was). If it had looked like yours I'd be panicking... So, tentative congratulations.

Can you get a digital for a clearer answer?

BrutusMcDogface · 01/12/2017 06:02

The one you've just done is definitely positive, in my opinion! Congratulations! Flowers

Last pic looks like the first test I did with my now three week old son. So I say positive😊🤞🏻

I’ll get a digital or something later today, I’m not even sure when my period is due, because of the fact my miscarriage was only 2 months ago I have only had one period since, which was on the 24th Oct. so I’m not sure if it messed up my cycle a bit or if I’m actually pregnant ( although these lines seem to suggest I am) as I don’t know when I was next due.

Definitely positive, congratulations!

Helen290 · 01/12/2017 09:35

That's a positive but like other people have said don't test again till Sunday as hcg doubles so the line should get darker test every 48hours, I know that's hard but best thing to do to keep your sanity as seeing just faint lines will drive you mad lol.

pinkie87 · 01/12/2017 10:53

Get a first response, it's more sensitive than a digital and you should get a darker line. Congrats! I got my positive 2 weeks ago after a missed miscarriage in September.

Congrats! I look forward to your next update Xmas Smile

Get a clear blue, the ones that say pregnant or not pregnant, then you will know for sure.

Namechange90 · 01/12/2017 17:14

The first couple of pics I'd have said no but the latest one second line is more visible. If you are your very early stages good luck xx

Starting to feel a bit unsure as I’m a bit crampy at the moment so I’ll keep you updated. Went to the doctors for water infection and showed doc the tests, he said they look positive and is sending one off to the hospital to get checked. By the time I get the results back though I’m sure I’ll already know for definite whether I am or not- but worth sending it off I suppose

Also has such a bad headache today it’s turned me into a right foul mood? Has anyone found this during early pregnancy? I’ve had this headache all day

HoneyCake86 · 01/12/2017 21:03

In early preg i get wierd dull headaches but i get like an annoying ‘whooshing’ sound through my ears with them... as if blood is rushing from one side through my head to the other x

Really? Perhaps it’s that? Had such bad cramps aswell they’re nothing like what I had when I was miscarrying but still quite sore x

HoneyCake86 · 01/12/2017 21:18

Ah hopefully your doc and pathology can come up with some answers for ya. To be fair, that test wouldnt be positive unless there was pregnancy hormone knocking about at higher levels. There must be a pregnancy at some point for that. Fingers that the cramps are just ligaments softening under hormone influence, and nothing sinister. Do you know when you will get the results of the test sent off?

HoneyCake86 · 01/12/2017 21:18

Fingers crossed**

Misslemon01 · 01/12/2017 21:19

@Katiekiara you must be spending a fortune on tests! Get those little HCG sticks that the NHS uses on eBay for a couple of £ per multipack. I’m not sure why people say opening the test dries it out, as the NHS HCG stick has no plastic outside to start with and it obviously works fine.

Congratulations by the way! 👶🏻

Bluefrog26 · 01/12/2017 23:50

I'd take that as a positive!! Congrats

Oh no sending hugs Thanks

I'm sorry to hear of your miscarriage- did you get a negative test after that? Mine took about 3 weeks to be negative and my periods were all over the place too.

Big virtual hug

I’m on my way to a&e now to see a doctor and get referred to have a scan and find out what’s going on. So upset as I did only have a miscarriage 2 months ago so hoping it’s not another one :(
