Hello people of Mumsnet

Heres my story so far !

I thought I was just having another late periord (two weeks late)
all I have felt is my stomach like im gunna start and sore breast
my friend said go get a pregancy test
so on friday on my way home got a test and took it came up with two lines striaght away!
I brought a test that had two in the box so on saturday in the morning I did the other one came up the same two lines
lol! I told my friend and she was like told you bulls eye congrats!!!

The thing is I cant believe it it yeah two lines but apart from sore breasts and stomach aching now and then dont really feel pregnant
dont think i will till ive been to the doc's-going on tursday!

all new to me as if its ture this would be my first

Just wonder what your thoughts are
Thank you

This happened to me first time. False positives don't really happen so congratulations!

Congratulations, sounds like your pregnant. You generally don't need to see in a doctor, they don't confirm it or anything like you see on TV. You normally just book to see the midwife, here at about 8 weeks, by ringing them directly or phoning your GP surgery.

Congratulations!

Dr won't really be able to do anything, unless you have other issues that you need to discuss from a medical perspective (eg I've got a GP appt on Friday but it's to talk about 5 issues ranging from hay fever to management of depression in pregnancy!)

And make the most of minimal pregnancy symptoms - it won't last so enjoy it whilst you can Grin

I was like this too, so much I bought 10 tests at Poundland :)
there's not a lot of symptoms so early on apart from the ones you described.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!

Congratulations! I didn't feel at all pregnant when I did the test either. Seemed a bit unreal.

Congratulations!

The reason that drs don't usually confirm is that home pregnancy tests are now every bit as reliable as the clinical test a GP would use. Works exactly the same. No point in repeating as will give the same answer.

Enjoy your pregnancy Thanks
