Faint lines not progressing?

Hi all!

I had unprotected sex on July 30th.

I had a faint positive on a one step strip test on Saturday 10th August. I've tested every day since and the lines are still really faint. I'm feeling anxious.

Has anyone had a similar experience? What was the outcome?

Here's some of the faint lines. I would expect them to be darker now?

Have you missed your period yet? It could just be very early still

@sel2223 I'm not entirely sure as I'm breastfeeding and my cycles are all over the place 🤦🏼‍♀️

It's cycle day 36 for me, post partem my cycles range from 25 to 42 days 🤦🏼‍♀️

I would maybe just test every other day now (first thing in the morning) instead of every day and see if you can see any progression that way

Oh op 😞 how much are you bleeding? It could be implantation bleeding?

Started bleeding today 💔😢

I am so sorry. I was in the same position last week - was so excited. We pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off and go again. Sending so much love xxx

JW24M · 19/08/2024 19:04

Have you popped to the doctors? Just realised you got a positive test… and I meant TOTM. Be worth getting checked out. Bless your heart xx

JW24M · 19/08/2024 19:05

It could still be ok? xx

km9371 · 20/08/2024 16:07

A lot 💔😥

I am supposed to go to EPU but I've no childcare for DS accept DH and I'm not going alone.

So very sad for my little Aires baby that couldn't stick around 😢 it's particularly hard as nobody knows I was even pregnant, so if in future anyone is reading this just note that keeping your pregnancy a secret doesn't make a potential loss any easier at all. Celebrate that little miracle whenever you want with your loved ones x

I read the thread and didn't want to leave without my comment.😥I am sorry it happened ... I had two early losses and only I and DH know. It was not good for my mental health. TTC is hard and MCs are even harder. It is the pain which I will always remember. I hope you will recover both physically and emotionally.
