6dp5dt line - looking for a hand hold

I had a FET last Wednesday and I just did something really stupid and tested early and I’ve got faint but clear lines. They came up straight away and they’re slightly pink. I’ve never seen a second line in 3 years of trying and even though I can see them I just don’t really believe it. I didn’t have a trigger and I’m on the usual medication (estrogen and progesterone) so I don’t think it could be a false positive? I used the same batch of tests for my last FET and it was stark negative on 9dp.

I don’t even know why I’m posting. Think I’m just looking for a hand hold because I have to decide whether or not to tell my husband when he gets in from work in a couple of hours.

If anyone has any advice or opinions on these tests I’d just be grateful for a friendly message from someone who understands what it’s like going through this madness.

Have got today’s blood test back and been told my HCG is the lower end of normal at only 29.6. Consultant said it could be a viable pregnancy but need further bloods to check so going back in 4 days time and that should give us a pretty concrete answer either way. Not feeling super optimistic tbh and I think I’m going to try not to test between not and Tuesday as I don’t need to drive myself mad comparing lines. Urgh this is all just so so hard. Sending love to the rest of you going through this!

@MrsWindrush so sorry that it wasn’t the result you were hoping for but I have everything crossed for you for the next blood test. I’m also not testing until Monday now and it feels nice to have a break. Best of luck to you 🤞

Just wondering how everyone is doing? Has anyone had a nice strong BFP or are we all out/in limbo land at the moment?

It was another negative for me sadly. Feeling completely heartbroken and starting to feel very scared that this might never work for us. I think I’m going to do NK cell testing next to see if that gives us any answers.

I really hope your next blood results go well @MrsWindrush and I hope things are looking positive for you too @Geordienewbie, best of luck to both of you ❤️

@Sunnydaysahead1 so sorry to hear this. It’s so hard to keep going and stay positive but I have to believe that we will all get there eventually. Wishing you all the best for the future x

My test was lighter today compared to Friday’s so it looks like this one isn’t sticking unfortunately. I’m going to ring the clinic tomorrow to see if they’ll give me a blood test. I’m completely gutted but I’ve had a good cry today and my head feels a bit clearer now.

@MrsWindrush good luck for your blood test tomorrow, I’ll be thinking of you and hoping for a good outcome! Have you managed to hold off testing over the weekend?

I got today’s blood test results back and it’s more than quadrupled up to 155 so the clinic says that they are happy with it. I cried to my nurse on the phone when she told me! She said I am indeed officially pregnant - which after three failed FETs I thought would never happen again. Having another set of bloods done on Saturday (so expecting another quadruple) and then if that’s ok I’ll be booked in for an early scan. @Geordienewbiehope your clinic can do a blood test for you to give you a little more clarity - all the unknowns and waiting are just so so hard.
