The Hopeful Hearts Circle 1 - December 2025🎄💖

[Iris2024]

Hey! Welcome to the Hopeful Hearts Circle 💕

Look out for this tagline every month and keep in touch and follow each others journey every month. We all got each other and we’ve got this girls!

Welcome to a wishful December 🎄🤍💞

@BlondepeachI did. I’ve tested this morning. There’s a line but still incredibly faint. I’m worried that it may be a chemical as not darkened much between tests.

Did anyone take progesterone in early pregnancy? I know the EPAU said to ring them when I have a positive test but how positive does it have to be? 🙈 I realise this might be a silly question. I’ll add a photo of this morning’s test at 11DPO

I think that’s a good line @Fullofconfusion- I’m not having to turn my phone on its side and squint, it’s very clear. No idea when you can get progesterone but you are very likely pregnant right now!

@Fullofconfusion I would also say that’s a good line for 11dpo! I’ve attached my 9-11dpo tests, so mine was probably even a little fainter. Also remember hcg should double every other day rather than every day ☺️

I had progesterone ready to go which I took from my 10dpo test I think, so would say it’s definitely worth calling to try and get asap!

Thank you ladies.

@Blondepeachthat’s so helpful, thank you for posting them. My original test which would have been 9DPO looks like your second one so there is progression. I’m just totally in my head about it because our journey has been a very difficult one. I’ve also not told my partner yet as wanted to check it was progressing and wasn’t a chemical. He’s massively struggled with the losses and is stressed at work at the moment so I didn’t want to cause more stress for him.

I’ll give EPAU a ring and ask about progesterone today. And then keep fingers, toes and all other extremities crossed that this is finally a sticky one!

@Fullofconfusion completely understand keeping it to yourself for now, I think I tested for around 10 days and every morning I was just waiting for the tests to fade, but this time it didn’t (I had x3 chemicals and an ectopic prior).

All you can do is hang onto some hope which is an absolute mind game itself! Everything crossed for you ❤️

@Blondepeachits definitely not easy to keep the hope but it’s there. 2 miscarriages, 1 chemical and a TFMR for me.

I called EPAU and they will put up some progesterone. They’ve also booked me an early reassurance scan for 7 weeks 🤞🏻

@Fullofconfusion everything crossed for you, hope the next few weeks until your scan go quickly & smoothly!

My line this morning is incredibly faint. I think this is another chemical. I’m going to stop the progesterone and let nature take its course. Feeling very sad today again

@Fullofconfusion oh bless you, I've got no words, just sending you so much love x

@Fullofconfusion Im so sorry, what an absolute emotional rollercoaster. Did you take another test today or has anything changed? Sending you a massive hug ❤️

I didn’t take any further tests. I wasn’t feeling confident as the lines weren’t really progressing but the last one was much fainter than previously. I started to bleed today so it’s another chemical as I thought.

Roll on June when we have our referral to the early loss clinic. It’s got to the point where I’m not sure I can keep trying for much longer

@Fullofconfusion im so sorry 😞

Im just checking in with the thread I originally made and see how everybody is doing ❤️

@Taysonic any updates on a way forward?
