Am I pregnant?

Help! I’m 9 days late on my period and have started to show signs of pregnancy. I’ve had heartburn, feelings of sickness and my body is very achy. An initial pregnancy test said negative which I took a couple of days after my period. However I took a test a couple of days later which is positive. The positive result was very light but it was definitely there! We decided to do a test a couple of days later to see if we got a stronger positive result and it has come back negative. I think we conceived (if we did) very late in my cycle, possible days before my period was due. I have read online that my hormone level may not be high enough yet but I don’t understand why a positive test result came back and now it’s saying negative. Any advice?

Hello
I'm sorry to hear that and I can feel you Coz I am going thru the same thing my af meant to come on 3/5 and I had bleed on 30/3 which was full liner but now I am 10 days late with BFN and I have no symptoms I just can't stop thinking about it😢

This sounds like such a confusing situation, I really do feel for you @Jenna14 have you tried to test again first thing in the morning? That's when you hcg levels would be at their highest, if that is negative & you still haven't had a period after 14 days or more I would contact the GP maybe you could have a blood test?

Thank you! I am going to take a pregnancy test with the doctor this afternoon. All in all I’ve had 2 positive tests and then the last one was negative. Doctor said this is strange so they are going to help! Fingers crossed!!

@Jenna14 how did you get on at the docs? I had this before, FMU showed a faint BFP, then when I tested later in the day it was a BFN. Next morning's FMU was another BFP, then negative. I did get stronger lines for a while, then when I was about 5+3 I did another test that was just laying around and I thought "let me just check" and it was a barely there BFP. Mine ended in MC (hence why at 5+3 it was so faint). Sometimes it's because the HCG is too low for the POAS tests and a blood test is the best way. As long as you're HCG is rising and you're not bleeding, I would try not to worry too much x

@jazzibelle the test at the doctors said no but they have asked for a urine sample to take to the lab for further testing. They said it could still be really early pregnancy so the lab test would be able to identify something. Just a waiting game now!

Hoping it comes back for you!!!

Jumping on here myself for a little advice - hoping to find out if anybody's experienced anything similar and what I should do?

So I've been feeling very strange the past 2 or so weeks, decided to take some tests took 4 and 3 showed very faint lines and the other was negative and taken during the day (first pee of the morning - I know, but wanted to see how this one would differ Incase they were just evap lines)

Then I started bleeding on the 15th now my period wasn’t due for at least another week and a bit - my cycles are messed up and my period always seems to be 5-7 days late each month - so for it to come so early I was a little weirded out and TMI my periods are super heavy but this started like off coloured discharge. Thought maybe the menstrual gods were shining down on me and finally regulating my period after all these years - it kept getting heavier and lighter for a few days and then stopped by the 4th day (again not normal for me). I took a test the day after just to settle my mind and got a positive much bolder than the ones taken before the bleed.

I’m not too sure what to think - my nipples have been stinging like crazy! And have been getting annoying headaches the past few days with tightness in lower back and abdomen.

I just wanted to know if anybody experienced anything similar?

@Mairek it sounds like your bleed was an implantation bleed and you're pregnant from you've written. Congratulations

I've never been pregnant before so not really sure what to expect or how it feels! Gonna do another test tomorrow and call the doctor :)
