3 days late, possible faint positives!

Hello! TTC #4 to complete our family! Currently 3 days late for my period (i think) according to my app, although it's not always accurate.

I've taken tests from around 8 dpo(ish) and have got 2 faint positive tests the last two days - I'm currently testing every morning till AF arrives! Although I'm worried i have line eyes, or if they are evaps.

I have no cramps or symptoms that suggest AF is coming (i usually get awful cramping and moody) although i do have acne, which is a common symptom of AF for me, but not accompanied by other symptoms, so I'm really hoping this is it, and that i possibly ovulated late, hence the faint lines.

Been TTC since January this year.

Anyone have any advice or insight please?

The faint positives are so hard to see, definitely squinters! Unfortunately, won't show up on camera. This is why im anxious 😬

Another test this morning, now 4 days late. I just really hate this waiting. Not sure if i see a faint line. Probably not, probably been imagining the others or they are indeed evaps 😪

I'm using one step Internet cheapies! May purchase a FRER online today. Just anxious to see a fully negative test on one of those really to be honest. Thank you so much! X

Hi everyone,

Today is a bit of a crazy one for me- after nearly 3 years of TTC following a miscarriage, I've finally got a BFP! I am utterly shocked- I'm currently on a waiting list for the infertility clinic and I just assumed something was wrong, so for it to happen naturally is just so wonderful.

I'm just wondering if anyone has any tips to help with anxiety about miscarriage. As my first pregnancy ended in miscarriage and it's taken me this long to get pregnant again, I feel like as soon as I celebrated the BFP I was overwhelmed with anxiety that I might lose the baby. So any calming tips would be amazing!

I'm only 3 days late for my period- and managed to get a pretty strong line so I'm trying to feel confident. It's just so difficult!

3 days late, possible faint positives!

@Hopingforhappiness1 I’ve had multiple losses in the past year and a half. My advice is to just take every step as it comes, don’t look too far forward. Just think “okay, so I have 2 weeks until first midwife appointment” or whatever it might be for you. For me for this one, I’m having blood work done on Friday and then again on Monday to check it’s doubling. Then I’ll
Move onto the next thing.

@TTCfortheforth good luck! 😊❤️
