Just got this line at 10DPO. Afternoon urine after feeling rough all day. This is my first time TTC and my second cycle. I don't want to get hubbys hopes up yet. Should I wait a few more days? Ahhhh! No one knows we're TTC any advice would keep me calm! 💕

Omg!

Congrats! 🥰 They look like really good lines! I had a chemical in December but just got another BFP today, 10dpo. I haven't done a FRER yet but I have some arriving tomorrow. I'm quite scared of another chemical though. Here are my cheapie lines today (yes..I tested 3 times!! 🙈)

Omg!

Hi @SillyOldBear3 they look great!!! Fingers crossed for you! When did you find out you were having a chemical last time? That's my biggest fear at the moment but my lines are good!

Is this a thing now? Just spending money on countless tests?

Honestly, you've had a positive test. Congratulations. You really don't need to keep testing daily , there is literally no point

Perhaps for you there’s no point, but for many women, especially those having had recurring miscarriage, testing for reassurance does help to allay the anxiety.

@OldTrot thank you for your input and I appreciate what you are saying but for some it's a lot easier said than done.

@OldTrot I don't think that's a particularly helpful comment, especially as some people on this thread have discussed previous losses and the anxiety this brings. I sincerely hope you have not experienced this yourself, but how people choose to spend their money for reassurance is none of your business. Sometimes getting a positive test (especially when it's faint) is not a guarantee and there is "literally" a point in checking their progression.

BoyMamaChloe · 09/02/2023 08:11

@SillyOldBear3 those lines are good for 10dpo! Mine was much lighter than that and now I've got the lovely blazing positives 🥰 congratulations!

OldTrot · 09/02/2023 09:06

My comment is aimed at the op and the op alone - who has not experienced a previous loss that she states

This is anxiety and it'll be a long 9 months if you test multiple times a day. It would be more productive to get help for the source of the anxiety rather than just waste money on tests.

That's the only sensible advice.

@OldTrot why even say anything?
As you state I haven't stated any previous losses, how do you know if I have or haven't? ...
I have done a few tests, so what!
Thanks for bringing misery to my morning! Please don't comment on my thread again.

@OldTrot it's exciting bugger off.

op this is darker than my line at 10DPO, she's now 15 months. I loved testing and seeing the lines get darker. There's no harm in it fgs. Congratulations!x

@OldTrot what an old fun sponge you are.

How the hell this effects your life, I really don't know.

Shouts volumes about the person you are!

Go away!

@katherine123x

My dd was conceived within weeks of a missed miscarriage.

OldTrot · 09/02/2023 09:52

@badgergirly Grin I'm not a fun sponge! Merely commented on a thread on an OPEN forum about how bonkers it is to repeatedly test, day in, day out. Under the circumstances op describes, no medical professional would advise it either

I mean, what do you do if the line is ever so slightly lighter on day 92?!

But I'll leave you to it, of course. I meant no offence. Just a total waste of mental energy and cash

SillyOldBear3 · 09/02/2023 10:08

@katherine123x thank you! This morning's cheapie was darker so I'm remaining cautiously optimistic!

I found out about the chemical at exactly 5 weeks when I started bleeding and tested. I didn't test for around 5 days before the chemical though, so in all honesty the pregnancy probably failed very soon after implantation and I just didn't find out about it.

I wouldn't stress about it, you're pregnant and although some pregnancies do fail, the majority that reach implantation don't! I try to keep that in mind 🙂 wishing you lots of luck! ✨

SillyOldBear3 · 09/02/2023 10:10

@BoyMamaChloe thanks you, that's reassuring! Congrats on your pregnancy! ❤️ How far along are you?

@katherine123x , ignore OldTwat, clearly forgets that for some people TTC is not a fucking breeze!!
Please share your line progressions with us! It’s really exciting, I love seeing BFPs and sharing the excitement! And for some people who have seen the lines fade it give us so much hope 🥰

blebbleb · 09/02/2023 11:22

I've been testing lots too. I'm trying to keep it to 1 first response a day though as they are quite pricey. The cheap ones aren't showing a positive for me yet.

No more tests for me. I have referred to local midwives!

Good luck to everyone on your baby journey 🌟
