Tell me this is some sort of false shit line please? I have been having regular periods, my last was around the 11th, but I've been slowly putting on weight around my stomach but I thought it must be because of christmas binging.

Anyway on Friday night I had a horrific pain in my stomach and it's all massive and bloated, I posted here about it and people asked if it was possible I could be pregnant and I said no.

I went to the emergency doctor who also asked this and I said no. I'm on the mini pill but do throw up a lot, but we don't DTD that often and we haven't been caught in over 3 years of being together so I just thought it must be fine.

But being a paranoid human I went and bought a cheap test from savers today 'clear and simple' and have just taken the test and thought it was fine but I looked closer and I saw this faint line. It appeared after 2 minutes.

It's very faint. Tell me theres other explanations for this? Please?

Meant to say, I think it's unlikely to be ectopic if you have had no pain since Friday (sorry if I've picked that up wrong). It's also possible the line is faint because you were pregnant and have miscarried.

The only way you're going to know is by seeing your doctor asap. Wouldn't you feel better sharing it with your DP? You haven't done anything wrong.

I'm going to have to get off here before he sees

Oh Hurr1cane I saw your other thread! You were so sure but it does look positive sorry Thanks

Hurr1cane · 26/01/2015 10:23

No because they haven't even found the faulty genes on DS yet Sad he's undergoing all sorts of research projects

RubbishRobotFromTheDawnOfTime · 26/01/2015 10:23

Your DP is just as responsible (maybe not helpful, but isn't he even more so given that only you were using contraception?) and should be there to offer support/share worries with you.

MovingOnUpMovingOnOut · 26/01/2015 10:24

A digital test will confirm one way or the other but that does look positive. Sorry it's not great news Flowers

Thurlow · 26/01/2015 10:25

Don't think about what you might decide to do now. It's the worst possible time to consider it because you're in shock and quite frankly, you're not thinking straight (been in your boat, it's impossible to think clearly)

Focus on getting the dating scan and confirming how pregnant you are. Just focus on that at the moment.

Hurr1cane · 26/01/2015 10:25

I know he's just as responsible but he's also prone to horrific depression and I've just managed to pull him out of one hole of doom. I'm the strong one that looks after everyone.

He's also a lot older than me with grown up children. This isn't in his plan

There is a very faint line but if its a cheap test, maybe do another one in a weeks time with a posher one.

If it puts your mind at rest about risk of an ectopic, my ectopic pg showed up when I used clear blue ovulation tests. The test read positive for too days and I got bleeding. I went to my gp and did a pg test, it was positive and sent me to hospital for a specific blood test non conclusive sent home. Then I got the classic pain in shoulder. Emergency surgery followed.

PlumpingUpPartridge · 26/01/2015 10:27

If your DP, in shock/anger, gets arsey with you about this, try to keep calm and use the phrase: 'This is as much of a shock to me as you. I didn't WANT to be pregnant!'

Hopefully this will snap him into supportive partner mode. Initial anger is forgivable if followed by supportive behaviour IMO.

Good luck Thanks

Oh cricket Hurr1cane I've been following your thread over the weekend! and can see completely why this would not be a champagne moment.

I'd stop taking the antibiotics and book a GP appt. Take another test tomorrow morning.

Did the terrible weekend pain subside?

PlumpingUpPartridge · 26/01/2015 10:29

Don't panic, they all do that after being left for a while. It will be ok.

Hurr1cane · 26/01/2015 10:30

It's still painful ish but it isn't like it was. I feel full and achy but not in sharp pain and no shoulder pain

OP posts:
Hurr1cane · 26/01/2015 10:30

I'm trying to call the doctors in private but they've been engaged for ages! I've told DP it's because it's no better

tenwrigglywigglycaterpillars · 26/01/2015 10:31

Yes, you are pregnant from the look of it. Good luck OP x

5madthings · 26/01/2015 10:32

The first one looks feint, but that is def a line.

Gp asap and then you can discuss where you want to go from here, find out how pregnant you are and what your options are.

You say you can't have an abortion, just give yourself some time to think.

If abortion really is not an option there is also adoption, which I would normally never suggest but if you really feel you can't abort and that you can't cope with another child maybe it's an option you would consider?

Much love to you, I recognise your posts and kbow how difficult your life is with your ds.

Deep breathes, go for a walk and call gp from your mobile if you don't want dp to hear you?

TSSDNCOP · 26/01/2015 10:33

One step at a time Hurr1cane. Get the GP appt first.

Have a Brew for your shock.

RubbishRobotFromTheDawnOfTime · 26/01/2015 10:34

Hurr1cane I really feel for you. With your DS being so unwell you could do without feeling that you're responsible for another adult too.

Please call your doctor today.

Fluffycloudland77 · 26/01/2015 10:34

They weren't periods, they were withdrawal bleeds caused by the 7 day break in the pill.

Oh dear. Epu for you I think.

RubbishRobotFromTheDawnOfTime · 26/01/2015 10:34

Sorry x-post.

Hurr1cane · 26/01/2015 10:34

No. If I am pregnant and it is viable I'll be keeping it. I just
