Hi guys, I ducked off because I got a bit obsessed with testing almost daily and always negative. I came off the pill 4.5weeks ago now, and didn’t know where in my cycle I was and didn’t seem to catch note of ovulation either. I was just about to stop looking and wait for AF or think about the Drs, but this was this mornings test…… please tell me it’s not just my eyes…….

Looks positive! Congratulations!🎉 how many dpo are you? Did you have any symptoms? I’m 7dpo and negative this morn and feel totally normal :( x

I don’t know because I came off my pill and havnt had any bleeding yet. The faintness of this test compared to my last pregnancy I’d say 12 dpo at a guess
it was negative at 10dpo….. don’t loose hope.

peanutForever · 24/04/2025 14:52

@KLK94congratulations looks very positive to me...so hard to determine how far along you are as you just came off the pill!

I can see colour so doubt its an evap line- if u have spares i would test again tomorrow/day after and it should be a bit clearer hopefully xx

SureLook · 24/04/2025 15:18

Congratulations @KLK94 great news!

KLK94 · 24/04/2025 21:38

Thanks guys. I tested again late afternoon since I hadn’t peed since the morning and it was brighter again. Still faint but it’s definitely getting brighter. Hope this little bean sticks.

who else is left in April?

All sounds really positive! Really happy for you!

Well I thought I was out but keep holding onto a teeny tiny bit of hope. There was a faintest of line on first response yesterday which was probably just indent but AF due tomorrow so will have to see. Not sure whether or not to test again today. So stressed! I feel pregnant, I’ve been convinced I’m pregnant for over a week haha but with so many negatives I just have no idea now.

Also scared after MC in August.

Hi all, I’ve been silently following for a while and TBH I resided myself as out for April but now I am confused and hoping for some advice🙏🏻🥺.
Based on my LH peak the Premom app predicted I ovulated 12/04. On 18&19/4 I had some brown spotting, 20&21/4 I thought my period started early had some pink/brown bleeding. This then stopped with a tiny bit of brown spotting 22&23/04 - super unusual my periods are usually 5/6 days. I’ve since had no bleeding but on and off cramping not like my usual period pains feel like my IBS pains where the muscles spasming and goes away with a hottie after a while. On 23/04 I’ve logged a very faint positive, again on 24/03 and today 25/03 - see pics (ignore 3rd line as I tested twice in one day). I don’t think the line is getting darker😩 but please do let me know what you’s think? 🙏🏻 I’ve used some cheapies too and the lines are just the same on those , if I ovulated 12/04 I’d be 13DPO today . I’m so worried I am having a chemical. I live in the UK in this something to call GP about?? 😩 everything I read online is so conflicting & I totally know it’s a waiting game but it any advice would be so appreciated. I’m going crazy in my own head 🤯

Looks like it’s getting darker to me!! Congratulations!!! Around 17dpo it would be bright. Give it time. Looks like you’re pregnant

Did you test this morning?……

KLK94 · 25/04/2025 07:16

Did you test this morning?……

No because I’ve ran out of tests 😅 but have some more FRER coming today so will test when they arrive.

Just scrolled back through the thread and realised that my line looks a lot like someone else’s who ended up with AF so even more convinced of indent now.

How are you feeling?

Always the way. When did you look at your tests, within the 5min window?…..
I’ve never had an evap/indent and not be pregnant.
I feel okay thank you, lower back aches, tired in the morning, light cramps now and again. But I feel pretty good

Looks like progression to me. I’m in UK too. The GP wouldn’t even see me when I MC at 7 weeks in Aug but that might just be mine. Could try the early pregnancy unit too if you’re worried but your line does look like it’s progressing! Will keep my fingers crossed for you

Ronnie09 · 25/04/2025 07:33

@KLK94 & @Hethers thank you both so much for replying so quick. I’ll hold out some hope 🤞🏻it’s madness trying to concentrate on anything else !

@KLK94 congratulations to you too! Do you know when you’d be due?

@Hethers I’m so sorry to hear about your MC , I’ve got my fingers crossed for your test today

Oh really. Now I’m getting excited again 😬 Yes I could see it straight away even though it was a squinter. I actually took two yesterday and they were both the same. I guess I’ll know for sure today/tomorrow.

Pleased you’re feeling ok. All the those aches and cramps are a good sign 😊

At an educated guess 3rd Jan……. Based on how this test looks compared to the test I took in 2023 when pregnant with my daughter. I’m going to see how the lines progress. Hard to know since I came off the pill and havnt bled yet so I don’t have a base line. Just hoping this bean sticks, as the last one didn’t (think they call that chemical)

sending baby dust to us last few left

@Hethersfingees crossed hope to see a pic with two clear lines later on! Xx

Samsi17 · 25/04/2025 18:35

Bit of an update.... I had a big bleed this morning and went for a scan, they couldn't see anything so did an internal and could an embryo with yolk sac but measuring 5 days less than i thought. They weren't overly worried about that as said my ovulation couldve been later with breastfeeding but they also found a hematoma adjacent to it which is what's causing the bleeding. So for the moment it's ok but could go either way and they talked me through symptoms of a miscarriage... back in a week, but obviously very anxious and fearing the worst. Still bleeding but it's not clots or cramping. Hoping it'll ease soon... 😢

SureLook · 25/04/2025 18:57

@Samsi17 sorry to hear that, you must have gotten a big fright. Hopefully you'll see your little bean in a week x

Sounds like a little bit of reassurance which is good. It’s there and real.
good to have an answer on the bleeding too. Fingers crossed and baby dust for the next few weeks for you!

KLK94 · 25/04/2025 19:11

@Hethers - any news tonight or waiting until tomorrow morning?

KLK94 · 25/04/2025 19:11

@Hethers - any news tonight or waiting until tomorrow morning?

I’m so stressed. The first response today was still faint but I would say more obvious than yesterday, definitely pink and came up straight away. It wasn’t a lovely dark line that I’m desperate to see but thought it must be something! But now I’ve got brown discharge so praying it’s not AF or CP.

Usually when my AF arrives it’s bright re straight away so holding on to hope still! Maybe it’s implantation which would make sense with faint lines but 14dpo today so feeling so unsure!

Thank you for checking on me!

Samsi17 · 25/04/2025 19:52

@KLK94 Thank you. It at least wasn't the worst I was expecting but it's hard just to wait and see. They didn't offer a scan since I'm so early but I pushed as was so anxious and glad I did as I was convinced it was all over this morning so in a way it's good to at least understand what's happening I guess...

KLK94 · 26/04/2025 06:28

This morning I got the official CB tick of approval. Officially pregnant. Line was there after only 1min.
I guess I can stop testing like a crazy person now and just believe it.
good luck everyone
