Hi

I have been trying for over a year and have had my first consultation with the fertility clinic last week. AF was due Thursday and hasn’t showed up and I haven’t had my usual pre af spotting. I am terrified to test I don’t know why I think I don’t want to be disappointed. Has anyone else felt like this. I was think of waiting until I’m a week late would this cause any harm if it were to be a bfp how quickly should you get in touch with your doctor if I were to be pregnant what is the first steps?

I’d say that’s a pretty solid line tbh, even for a week overdue.
Congratulations!!!!! 🌟

That's darker than the control line OP! Congrats x

PerfectPinecone · 21/10/2020 09:36

Congratulations. You were having the same symptoms as me. I tested at roughly 4 days late and got a good line. Your line is darker than mine was

Thepilotlightsgoneout · 21/10/2020 09:39

You are pregnant!!! Congratulations!!! Drop breaths, try not to panic Grin

Timetotry123 · 21/10/2020 09:43

I think deep down I knew it, what do I do now, do I test every few days or what’s the next step ?

BeingATwatItsABingThing · 21/10/2020 09:52

The test line is darker than the control line so you are 100% pregnant. Congratulations!!

Timetotry123 · 21/10/2020 09:59

Is it darker is it not because it’s upside downConfused

Bettina500 · 21/10/2020 10:01

Waiting4another · 21/10/2020 10:05

Blazing positive, what a fantastic result for you! Huge congratulations! Guess you had better cancel the IVF and start booking some appointments!

Waiting4another · 21/10/2020 10:08

I don’t think I have ever seen a darker test!

Timetotry123 · 21/10/2020 10:09

Oh I see what you mean I’m so silly I think I got the lines messed up oh god and I’m going to be in charge of a baby lol! Yes definitely I’ll cancel it today and give someone else a chance. Cant believe it!

The only thing you need to worry about with a test like that is multiples (joking, obviously don’t freak out about multiples, just enjoy your massive BFP)

Timetotry123 · 21/10/2020 10:12

@Waiting4another really! I can’t believe it’s took all this time and the month I get my consultation through it happens lol

OP posts:
Timetotry123 · 21/10/2020 10:13

I have 3 sets of twins in my family lol!

Waiting4another · 21/10/2020 10:17

Haha, well in that case feel free to freak out about having multiples Grin
This is the best thread ever, so so thrilled for you!

Timetotry123 · 21/10/2020 10:22

Thank you so much Smile I hope it gives others hope I have been reading this forum for months and see bfp and you can’t help get disheartened but it can and will happen maybe just not as quick as you hope but everyone just needs to hang in there Smile

Yesssssss! @Timetotry123! Woohoooo! I'm so pleased for you! Congratulations!

Wow congratulations @ArtfulScreamer! This is amazing!!!

Sproutpie · 21/10/2020 10:32

I’m so so happy for you. Many congratulations 🥳

ArtfulScreamer · 21/10/2020 10:46

Yay you're in my boat and yep you looked at the test upside down it's a very strong positive. If you're anything like me your next steps will be worrying about all sorts constantly and obsessively checking the tissue paper every time you pee. I've booked my midwife booking in appt and I've bought a couple more clear blue digital weeks indicators tests so I can test end of this week and then next and hopefully see the weeks indicator go up (I did this after my IVF and it did marginally put my mind at rest).
Congratulations here's to a happy and healthy 9 months for both of us.
