Omg omg omg it's been 8 years since we started trying for a baby. 6 rounds of fertility treatment failed. I've been feeling AWFUL for past few days. Had bizarre v light bleeding 4/5 days ago. In fit of stupidity/eternal optimism I bought a pregnancy test today (and promised myself this would be the LAST), just taken it to check I can have a drink at new year - and there's a second line!!! It's faint but there IS a second line!! It's only a cheapy asda own brand one. Could it be wrong? Could I be hallucinating? Or is the singular greatest moment of my life???!

Lovely lines Grin

Just absorb the wonder of being pregnant. How did your OH take the news??

I'm taking 100mg Vit B6 whilst waiting for my referral for low progesterone. It's meant to raise it. But I'm not pregnant so you'd have to do some research as to its safety etc etc.

I see lines :) congratulations Flowers

InQuiteAChristmasPickle · 01/01/2016 17:45

Pfft! The line isn't that faint, OP! Grin It's probably darker than the faint line I got with DD2.

InQuiteAChristmasPickle · 01/01/2016 17:46

Do let us know how everything goes 😄

DramaAlpaca · 01/01/2016 17:47

Wow! Congratulations Flowers

Annarose2014 · 01/01/2016 17:49

Oh and something to think about too is that 100mg might be totally unnecessary for someone who obviously had > 30 progesterone this cycle! That's the dose I'm taking just to attempt to ovulate in the first place!

I wouldn't be massively worried this early tbh. I'm sure Wednesday is absolutely fine.

Wow congratulations op.

I have my 2 year old faint line sat here also watching paw patrol after 3 long years of no fucking lines.

I panicked like mad. Just enjoy your pregnancy.

GinIsTheBestChristmasSpirit · 01/01/2016 18:29

I see lines. Huge congratulations and wishing you a happy healthy pregnancy

Lucy61 · 01/01/2016 18:57

Wonderful! Many congratulations and great to have such happy news on New Year's Day!

Vanillaradio · 01/01/2016 19:12

Awww congratulations. My line looked similar, he's 2 now and climbing all over me refusing to go to bed!

lostinmiddlemarch · 01/01/2016 19:13

Just remembering the day this happened to me; it was the night before starting IVF. I know what you're feeling so well! Congratulations :) Enjoy it.

DoodleCat · 01/01/2016 19:18

Congratulations! Also another one who has a faint line sitting next to me. He's watching Peppa Pig and says after every episode "just one more"..

Good luck & I hope all goes well. Happy New Year!

ExasperatedAlmostAlways · 01/01/2016 19:33

Aw congratulations op, wishing you a healthy, happy nine months of pregnancy 🎉

wizzler · 01/01/2016 19:37

Congratulations OP... So pleased for you

Ipushedmygrannyaffabus · 02/01/2016 14:47

I wasn't hallucinating!! Just paranoid now about feeling sick, not feeling sick, every twinge, feeling bloated, everything!! But still just trying to enjoy every single second and have positive thoughts! Just not used to things going right!!

Can this be true?

Wonderful news !! (And a ray of hope for me who has been TTC for 3 years)

Congratulations! Thanks

Beansprout30 · 02/01/2016 15:13

I love stories like this, you must be on cloud 9! Massive congratulations to you, wishing you a healthy smooth pregnancy Grin

sepa · 02/01/2016 17:56

Your 'faint line' is clearer than mine was. Are you taking folic acid and vit b? I assume you will be with ttc.

This is such lovely news and so happy for you and your OH. 2016 will be a fab year for you Flowers

GlitteryFluff · 02/01/2016 18:03

Awww lovely op. Congratulations 💐
