New thread as the other one is about to go!! Defo forgotten a few peeps! Please add ladies!

@MrsRosaline omg!!!!!!!! I mean the hcg has to be pretty strong for the digitalis to show up right!? How many DPO are you? 11ish? If so I think that line looks fine! Congrats!!!!!!!!! Xxx

Admittedly it's the 6 day early clearblue digital one 😬 @newtolineofduty. 11DPO, period due tomorrow/Saturday ish.

@MrsRosaline if possible I'd try and wait until sat to do another!!!! Have you got any symptoms? Xx

It's been on the side for an hour now and shown up a bit more. Yes I have really bad backache @newtolineofduty and I did wonder yesterday when I was in the queue at the canteen and the smell of the turkey made my stomach turn!

All great signs @MrsRosaline! Crossing everything xxx

Thank you @newtolineofduty 🤞🏻

@MrsRosaline eeepppp this is so exciting!!! Congrats chick!! ❤️❤️ obviously I can totally understand the caution though. Deffo agree with @newtolineofduty about doing a test maybe on Saturday if you can hold out!! Looks super promising 🙂🙂 xxx

@MrsRosaline omg!!! Yayyyy you're pregnant!!!!! Don't worry about the line strength on the frer you're super early still at 11dpo. Mine looked similar to be honest plus your clear blue says pregnant so there is no debate!!!

So bloody happy for you hun!! I did have a feeling this could be your month and I'm so pleased it is!!
Just take each day as it comes, what will be will be. I gave myself milestones in weeks and to be honest, I still worry about miscarrying! We just try to protect ourselves

So happy for you!!! ❤️

Haha @CShandy01 I'll probably test again tomorrow morning 😬

Just worried @hoola23 because the line takes like 1 minute to show and I'm sure when I was pregnant with DD the line showed instantly!!

@MrsRosaline maybe the test was a bit dodgy. Out of the two tests, they both say pregnant so you're defo pregnant!!

Well it was the same with the miscarriage in September @hoola23... took a good few minutes to come up. Can't all be dodgy tests can they! Argh. Will have to keep waiting. I've gone about my day as normal and every now and again remember and think "omg"

@MrsRosaline well just try to stay focused, first hurdle is done, and think positively you know that you are conceiving and this is only the second month you've tried since this miscarriage right?

@MrsRosaline maybe you implanted slightly later this time than with DD so the hcg just isn't as strong this time at 11dpo? You'll know for sure in two days what's happening so I'd just try and hold tight xxx

Yes @hoola23. We tried in December, and gave it one last shot in January. Who knows. I guess a positive is a positive! I never tested 11 DPO with DD or the other one. @newtolineofduty

What supplements are you all using? I'm hesitant to use pregnacare as the day I started them last time I miscarried. Obviously I know logically those two things aren't linked, but psychologically I'm scared to fake them!

@MrsRosaline pregnacare with the additional omega 3 as well as an extra vitamin d supplement xx

Great. Did you take the omega 3 throughout the first trimester @newtolineofduty ? X

@MrsRosaline yes right from the beginning xxx

@MrsRosaline I'm just taking a vit D tablet and folic acid. Nothing fancy! How you feeling today?

Thanks @newtolineofduty. I remember not taking omega when I was pregnant with DD for some reason but can't remember why!

I'm not doing good @hoola23. I had some blood tinged mucus this morning, same as the last one. I took a FRER which was positive, although no darker than yesterday and I also took a CB digital that read "not pregnant". I know that they are less sensitive than the FRER, but it's still got me worried. I don't want to miscarry again but think it's going that way ☹️

Sorry to hear that @MrsRosaline. Was the CB digital another 6 day early one? If not I wouldn't worry yet as I wouldn't expect the frer line to be any darker yet hun x

No, it wasn't an early one. It was the normal one that tells you how many weeks. @newtolineofduty

@MrsRosaline agh well I deffo wouldn't give up just yet then x have you got a frer for the morning? X

Yes I have a few boxes @newtolineofduty 😂😔

@MrsRosaline don't read into it too much hun. Forget the clear blue ones until you're at least 2 days after AF is due and hcg doubles every 48 so the frer prob won't look much different than yesterday. Also, I've had brown discharge every day since 6 weeks! And red blood at times. I know how you feel as I was the exact same and I still think somethings wrong but there really is no way of knowing just yet but i certainly wouldn't be thinking the worst right now. Take each day as it comes x

Thanks @hoola23 and @newtolineofduty it's so nice to have some people to talk to about it. I've been tearful at work today and it's not like I could tell anyone why! I won't do another digital until Sunday then, unless bleeding properly starts, and then I won't bother at all. It's just so different to DD. I never even saw the tiniest speck of blood really the whole 9 months.
