Line eyes please

There is something there isn't there?

I'm probably about 7-10 DPO but didn't OPK, just used the Ovia fertile dates as a guide. AF due Wed according to the app and used FRER cause I've been feeling a bit crummy (although not the same symptoms as I had with my first pregnancy).

Definitely something there. Test again in a couple of days

I see it xx

Thanks, I am freaking out (in a good way) I have a second FRER so will do it in a couple of days to confirm!

I can't see it 🙊 it's faints so by Wednesday I bet it will be a blazing positive 🤩

I see it!

I cant see it, but it may be that its just super early.

I see it! I did an early detection first response with my current pregnancy, got an even fainter line than yours 1 day before period due, waited a few days did another test and had a BFP! Goodluck!

Did u retest op?

I planned to hold off for another few days but I started to bleed a little and it wasn't the same as my last pregnancy (it was fresh blood this time) so I tested again yesterday. The line was slightly stronger when I compared them but I'm still spotting fresh blood today so I don't think it has stuck.

I did a test again this morning and it looks like the line progressed on Sunday but i think it might have slightly dropped back again today? I can't remember how quickly the line darkened for my first pregnancy but I feel it was quicker than this.

I guess I'm looking for someone to confirm my thoughts on the pic but also, if you've had an early MC, would you mind advising how quickly the levels dropped so that the test showed negative? Just looking for a guide as to when I should retest again.

Thanks in advance for any help.

@ContadoraExplorer Hi, it does look a little fainter than the previous test, don't count yourself out just yet as your still early and things could change. Unfortunately if it is going to end as a chemical, my experience has been different each time, sometimes it only takes a few days and the line on the test dissapears and then AF comes. Other times it has remained a faint line for quite a while (1-2 week) going up and down slightly but never becoming a strong positive. And it can be so confusing and frustrating. 🤞 for you though, do you have any symptoms? You could just have slow rising hcg levels they might shoot up soon 🙂

@olivebranch26 thanks for replying.

I feel like my symptoms were quite clear before I tested which was why I tested so early - fatigue, light cramping, thirst and subsequently peeing loads. The only thing that was really different to the last time was that my boobs weren't sore at all.

Since I tested, I've still been thirsty and tired but had sore lower back and I think the cramps feel more period like than they did before. The spotting doesn't seem to be getting any heavier but it also hasn't stopped so I do think it's probably bot happening this time.

Thanks for the info re your previous MC's, although I'm sorry to hear you have had that experience to be able to give me the info in the first place x

Don't know why that posted twice.

@ContadoraExplorer I'm sorry to hear that your spotting hasn't subsided, although it is possible to bleed and still be pregnant (my sister had the same) it does seem as though an early MC could happen. Have you been pregnant before or is this your first? Xx

@ContadoraExplorer Sorry I do remember reading now that this is not your first baby, the only positivity I can give would be that if it is a chemical it wasn't meant to be unfortunately and as devastating as it is hopefully they do tend to be over quickly and after my chemical I got pregnant right away even though it took a year before that. Unfortunately that one ended in MC too and I've been taking a long break It took a very long time to get my DD so I know when the time is right for my second it will all be worth it.

@olivebranch26 It's horrible. I guess we're both lucky, by comparison to some others, that we both have our DD's but it definitely doesn't feel that way right now. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you, you're right, when the time is right it'll happen x

@ContadoraExplorer I sure hope this is your time, I'm keeping my 🤞 for you. Xx

@ContadoraExplorer hi lovely, my positive was darker on 14dpo afternoon then 15dpo morning, totally freaked me out! But it's back darker again now! I think they can fluctuate xx

@anxiousannie86 thank you. I'm pretty sure that the hormone levels are on their way down but I guess until the line is gone completely it's not guaranteed so I'll keep a little hope x

@ContadoraExplorer I'm keeping hope for you too, keep us posted Xx

Thought I'd come back and update. Definitely a chemical pregnancy - no line now and my bleeding changed to be much more like my normal period around the same time as it was due on the app and has almost stopped now. Onwards and upwards I guess - good luck go everyone trying x

So sorry OP ❤️ I have my fingers crossed for us ✨
