Positive test. Freaking out

Middle of the day, period due tomorrow. This is a good strong positive right? I've attached a test from a previous miscarriage that never got darker even 7 days late. I'm so nervous. Current one is on the wood.

It looks positive to me. Why are you freaking out?

I've been trying for 18 months and had a miscarriage last May. It just doesn't feel real.

Yes that looks like a good positive to me, you're not past your missed period yet and it's a solid line. In a few days you will see the test line as dark as the control line.

I understand that. Before my last baby I had three consecutive miscarriages (of a total of 6) then a year of not conceiving. I had every rational reason to suppose it wouldn't a) happen in the first place and b) continue. She'll be four this autumn.

Congratulations! I had similar with a loss last April then a BFP in November after 19m of ttc. I'm now nearly 20wks. So pleased for you x

Congratulations to you @EverythingNow did you manage to relax after your bfp? I'm in full blown panic right now. Not sure when it will subside, this is so surreal.

@Aph413 not until my 8wk scan (private) and then increments of feeling less anxious until 12wks. I'm ok now I feel it moving but still have moments.

I literally tortured/reassured myself by testing every day until about 7wks Blush but like you I had much stronger bfp this time.

@EverythingNow thank you. I think we're going to go for a private scan too, anything for reassurance. I did make my DH hide the pregnancy tests though.

Test line is darker than the control now. I think I'm starting to believe it could be real. Excuse me taking photos in my pantry. The lighting is fantastic in there

Massive congratulations, that's so positive! Book yourself in for an early scan to reassure yourself, and best of luck with your pregnancy 💐
