I’ve now had faint lines 3 days in a row! Period isn’t due for another 4/5 days and I’m about 12/13dpo. I just need some positive stories of people getting BFP after a few negatives! I should also throw out it’s not faulty tests I’ve had lines on multiple brands

Hi @Jess1997 that sounds really good, unfortunately there's nothing you can do but wait a few more days. 3 in a row is definitely really hopeful, try not to drive yourself crazy testing though. Best of luck 🤞

@Sez281 i just thought by now they’d be getting darker! I’m super bloated and crampy today so I’m praying AF doesn’t show 😭😭 terrified of another chemical

@Jess1997 Aww I totally understand, I had a CP last cycle 😢 The problem for me is symptom spotting and testing too early 😣 I know it's easier said than done not to though. Fingers crossed your line gets darker over the next few days 🤞

Jess1997 · 29/07/2023 14:27

@Sez281 im normally bad for symptom spotting but this month I was convinced it wasn’t the month bc I didn’t have any of the symptoms so I think the symptoms I thought were pregnancy symptoms were actually just period symptoms 😂😂

Hi @Jess1997 you've had 3 faint lines in a row, that's really good hun!
The wait is so difficult, but not long to go Xx

Jess1997 · 29/07/2023 14:40

@Sez281 I just assumed after 3 days they’d start to get darker 😭😭

@Jess1997 I totally get your frustration but honestly this stress isn't good for you. They might not be getting darker for a number of reasons like diluted urine etc but the main one being that you're still so early. Try to hold off testing again until AF is actually due, I know it's so much easier said than done but just try to keep busy xx

@Sez281 im in work right now but it’s really quiet so it’s all I’m thinking about 😂😂 my toddler distracts me when I’m at home tho!

Sez281 · 29/07/2023 15:27

😂😂 That's a great distraction @Jess1997. And I totally get it, I'm quick to tell everybody else not to stress or keep testing but I'll probably be the same next week 🙈 Fingers crossed for you, keep us updated 😘

Jess1997 · 29/07/2023 15:44

@Sez281 im the same!!! Great at telling other people to be patient but not so good myself 😂😂

@Sez281 started bleeding there so it was just another chemical

Aww I'm sorry to hear that @Jess1997 😢 I was in the same boat 2 weeks ago and it's really shitty 😢 I've read so many stories on here from people getting their BFP after CPs so hopefully next cycle for you 🤞🤞Until then just mind yourself x

Hi did u get ya bfp after op

Jess1997 · 22/12/2023 23:52

@Bex4567 no unfortunately! This was just a chemical pregnancy, then I finally got a BFP at the end of October only to find out in early November that it was an ectopic on my c section scar! They had to give me methotrexate to sort that out so not allowed to TTC again until March!
