Congratulations! That’s amazing! Really happy for you!! ❀️

let’s not all give up! The last time I got a positive was way after my period was due! I wish I was that chilled this time round! Xx

Butterflyanniehall · 25/03/2023 06:51

@90mamabear
yes hopefully a little december baby! but I have such bad anxiety I just can't accept it yet! xx

I really hope you get a positive soon!! xx πŸ’•

90mamabear · 25/03/2023 06:53

@Butterflyanniehall this was me in my last 2 pregnancies. I couldn't stop taking tests and wasted so much funny I literally couldn't accept it's true and I've promised myself this time when it comes as it will be our last baba to just enjoy it . I find once you miss your period it starts to feel more real. Then after your first scan . You can get early scans from about 7 / 8 weeks which are so reassuring and help you tick along to the 12 week one! That will be so lovely . What a Christmas present πŸ₯°πŸ₯°πŸ₯°. Thank you for your kind words πŸ₯°πŸ₯°!! Stick by this little thread and hopefully some of us wi be joining you for due month twinnies :) xx

@Butterflyanniehall what were your symptoms ? Anything different ? Xxx

Ah enjoy the excitement of those two lines. Agree with @90mamabear you can go for an early scan to help reassure you. Just stay healthy, drink plenty and try to enjoy it as much as you can. What an amazing Christmas gift, I agree! Please stay around and keep us posted on how you get on and hopefully some or all of us will join you on this journey! Xx ❀️

Butterflyanniehall · 25/03/2023 07:05

@ElleJones1 thank you so much! fingers crossed for you!! x

@90mamabear I would love a little Christmas baby!

I have a 6 month old baby. When I got pregnant with him it wasn't planned and totally unexpected, but the day I was due my period I had a nap and woke up with a metal taste in my mouth I was mortified so I googled why that happens and it said possible pregnant so I done about 5 test all positive....
this time round I had to metal taste again and thats why I tested! but apart from that no other symptoms!!! I ended up with hyperemesis though :( xx

I have bad cramps and feel like AF is coming but I am not trying to worry!! as with my first pregnancy I had the same, awful cramps and light spotting...I was in so much pain, got an early scan and at 5w3d there was a heartbeat....and all was fine, had a healthy baby at 40 weeks xx

I am hoping for the best. Fortunately I have never had a miscarriage. Only been pregnant once and had a healthy baby....But reading on here about chemicals and miscarriages has really scared me! πŸ˜“xx

Butterflyanniehall · 25/03/2023 07:07

@ElleJones1 @90mamabear

Sorry to add but do you think it makes sense to buy more test and keep testing? Or should I just accept the test I have already done?? xx

ElleJones1 · 25/03/2023 07:26

I would accept it. I think watching lines is very worrying and can cause anxiety. I don’t do that once in my last pregnancy. Please don’t do it. Accept you’re pregnant right now and go with it xx ❀️

ElleJones1 · 25/03/2023 07:35

I’ve just taken one and this was 2 mins after doing it xx

Butterflyanniehall · 25/03/2023 07:42

@ElleJones1 ok hun, thank you! I will just try to accept it for now and see what happens over the next few weeks!

To be honest, I would say that is positive?! Mine started out very faint like that on the strip test!! Then a day later got positives with a First Response test xx

Congratulations!!!! xxx

ElleJones1 · 25/03/2023 07:43

Did another one to really see in the same wee and a big fat no! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh xx

Butterflyanniehall · 25/03/2023 08:22

@ElleJones1 ohhh sorry, how confusing and frustrating! are those test sensitive?? x

ElleJones1 · 25/03/2023 08:26

Yeah they’re meant to be super sensitive. Who knows what’s going on?! Very frustrating! I literally almost cried watching the second line come up within 2 minutes! Then I just had to do another one and now this! 😭 xx

Butterflyanniehall · 25/03/2023 09:02

@ElleJones1 Oh dear! I'm so sorry. It's not fair! In my humble honest opinion I do see very faint lines in a few of the photos you have posted! But then if some keep coming up negative it is very confusing. The only thing I could suggest is try a different type of test/brand xx Fingers crossed!

90mamabear · 25/03/2023 10:41

@ElleJones1 I'm hoping this is good news in the end for you πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•! I really think that line looks like a proper one ! My clear blue ended up with a blue evap after 5 mins !! It was so convincing and literally made me cry ! X

The wondfo (top one) is a little pink on person the others are just shadows but they came up within 3 minutes.

Really hope you get another line in the next couple days your first east@home test looks good!

90mamabear · 25/03/2023 18:26

@Butterflyanniehall I have a little one very close in age to yours !!! Mines coming 9m but want them close :) I also have an older child too :):) we waited a long time between them ! And don't want to again ! I have been the exact same both times. The period feeling multiplied , cramps the heaviness ! Exact same ! Xx

90mamabear · 25/03/2023 18:27

@Pbubz I def see something ! X

OP posts:
90mamabear · 25/03/2023 18:32

The only thing making me very suspicious ladies is I've had horrific cramps all day! And I get them before my period but I'm not due until Thurs / Fri so it's very very early x I had this last time

OP posts:
Pbubz · 25/03/2023 18:37

@90mamabear my AF is due on Thursday and DP will be away 5 days so if I do actually get a bfp I won't be telling him until he's back, and then we're supposed to be going a bit night out on London on good Friday. No idea why I'm thinking this far ahead already when I've basically just got a shadow of a shadow but it's hard not to I guess!

Baby dust to all xx

90mamabear · 25/03/2023 18:39

@Pbubz of course it's hard not to when you want something so much !!:) im everything crossed for you xxx
