Symptoms actually a bad sign?

Am I the only one who feels out this month because they HAVE some mild symptoms. Sore boobs and lower abdomen cramps. Due AF on sat and thinking more likely to be her rearing her ugly head. With my DD and subsequent failed pregs I never had any symptoms till at least 6weeks...

Ragh sorry, just moping Blush

Congratulations! That's a real BFP. The darkness of the line can vary depending on lots of things, like how much you had to drink before the test, whether it was fmu etc. I was worried last week because I got a bfp followed by really faint lines on some cheap supermarket tests. I've now done about 8 tests and bfp line is still there and darker than the ones last week. HCG doubles roughly every 48-72 hours so you could test again in 2 or 3 days if you still want reassurance

I’ve moved onto another brand today Grin might have to take out a loan for all these tests...
Clearblue is a BFP. Think I’m just remembering testing with my DD the line was so strong day AF was due so might be fair to say I’m paranoid Grin

@Sardi28 ahh a newbie again. TTC for over a year here, you’ll learn to take pics each time.... saves the walk of shame back to the bin just to ‘double check’ 🙈😂 (I may have learnt this from experience)

Ah @thunderandsunshine01 AF arrived yesterday, bang on cue. Cycle is dead on 28 every month though, so I'm taking that as a positive that I don't have long to wait till next time 🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️☹️
Or she'll be a day late and I'll be even more disappointed next month 🙈🙈 it's a rollercoaster ride this TTC 🙄

@sardi28 ahh no... Sorry for the disappointment it's always deflating isn't it. For every BFN I've got I've treated myself to a large gin, as let's be real...alcohol is the true silver lining of not being preg!
