BFP but I’m so confused!

Hi ladies - really hope someone can help or has had similar experience…

We have been ttc for 2 years now. We had a MC in 2020 and have been trying again since then.
Did a test on 4th Feb (cd26) as this has been end of my cycle for last 6 months or so and was BFN!
Period arrived next day and lasted normal 4-5 days.
Then started spotting on 15th and 16th Feb, some mild cramps, etc. I don’t usually get any cramping around ovulation, and never any spotting mid cycle but I assumed it was ovulation related as felt it was too soon to be implantation (only cd 11/12)

But…when the cramping didn’t stop after a few days, I did a test and got BFP on cd14
Rang my doctor and he said to monitor the cramping and go to A&E if it gets severe or if I start bleeding in case it may be ectopic as it’s on one side.

Basically I’m sitting here doubting that I’m pregnant and desperately trying to stay away from the pregnancy tests as I’ll go off my head comparing lines!

Has anyone else tested positive this early in their cycle?

Is there any chance of booking a private scan? Feel for you OP. I know exactly what you mean about the headfuck of ttc.

@threadslayer unfortunately I don’t have anywhere less than a 1.5hr drive away for a private scan…and if I am only 2/3 weeks along, they won’t be able to pick anything up anyway

@Bundaberg84 Yes! Although, in fairness, most of my friends and family seem to fall pregnant almost immediately after deciding to try, so it’s obviously easy for lots of people…I just wish there was more realistic education around reproduction and fertility, as it seems to me that more and more couples are struggling to start a family
I knew people growing up that couldn’t have children, but you never imagine that you’ll have difficulty yourself I suppose
