Hi guys, I would like your opinions on this test I've just done. The faint positive line showed up straight away and got darker within the 10 minute period. What do you guys think?

Morning crazy testing crew Grin
I have done my last test this morning. I am doing no more. Not convinced at all. Nothing came up in first 3 mins. This is how it looked after 10. Have cramps again and wondering if AF is coming!

I can see a line!! (Without having to squint)

Feels like cheating to wait until 10 mins! I'm going mad with all these thoughts.
On the one hand, having another baby now would completely turn our lives upside down. We've just bought a more expensive house/bigger mortgage which we need two salaries for. I've got a great position at work. My kids are so easy now (in fact DS1 is making breakfast for DS2 as I type). I would have almost 8 years between my next and DS2.

On the other hand, I cried yesterday at the thought that I might not be pg. I suddenly want a baby so much. I know that if I'm not pg, we won't be trying for another baby. It isn't what we had decided for the future.

I think that when I want something bad enough, I can pretty much convince myself of anything and I feel like I've made myself sick with overthinking!! My boobs felt so sore last night but they're ok this morning and I have AF pains.

I think I need to try and stop thinking about it (impossible) and deffo no more tests. AF due on 31st so we will see what happens.

Good luck to everyone, I will come back and update either way!

House.... is that a Superdrug test.... looks like a line to me. Just wait and see if AF turns up I guess

NotPennysBoat · 29/10/2016 10:20

House that is a definite line!

NotPennysBoat · 29/10/2016 10:22

How does it look when you compare it to previous days' tests House? Have you kept them?

HouseAnxiety · 29/10/2016 10:44

Very similar to yesterday but the 'line' came up quicker today. The last one was from Lloyds.

Don't get my hopes up!!!

Mollykate12 · 29/10/2016 12:01

There is an obvious line there House. I'm actually jealous you're still getting lines because if I do any tests apart from clearblue, nothing shows up. Starting to think there's something wrong with clearblue's tests. I cry or get very upset whenever I get a negative test, I understand how you feel when you say you really want a baby. I've never wanted anything more. I'm going to keep trying and testing, but I keep feeling like it's never going to happen for my fiancé and I. Feeling very hopeless right now :(

You will get there my love x
And when you do it'll be totally worth it. I'm not doing any tests now as it's expensive and it feels inconclusive.

Mollykate12 · 29/10/2016 14:43

Thanks house, I don't think I'll be doing anymore tests either. If anything major happens I'll go to the docs and get a blood test which will defo confirm pregnancy. I want a baby so much!! Haha

YAY! I made it through a whole day without doing a test Hmm

Had a chat with DH today and he said if I'm not we can talk about a 3rd Smile

Although I'm not sure I could ever do the 2ww again!

Littlemisssugarplum88 · 30/10/2016 18:23

Aww that's lovely news to hear he has come round to the idea! Yayyy xx

Mollykate12 · 31/10/2016 13:24

Bad news guys, the doctor said I had a miscarriage

Littlemisssugarplum88 · 31/10/2016 13:30

Oh no, I'm so sorry molly! Did you have a bleed?!
Sending you lots of hugs xxx

Mollykate12 · 31/10/2016 13:37

Thanks sugarplum, yes I was bleeding quite a bit

OP posts:
Littlemisssugarplum88 · 31/10/2016 13:40

I thought you'd only ovulated a few days ago. You must have been further along than you thought you were xx

Mollykate12 · 31/10/2016 14:12

Yeah, we're going to try again next month xx

Littlemisssugarplum88 · 31/10/2016 14:18

Good luck lovely, make sure you get plenty of rest. Let us know how you go on :) xx

HouseAnxiety · 31/10/2016 17:15

Oh no. Sorry to hear that x

Mollykate12 · 31/10/2016 18:47

Thanks girls, I thought i had implantation bleeding but turns out it wasn't, I think the pregnancy tests were just still picking up the hormones which is why some were positive

OP posts:
Mollykate12 · 01/11/2016 00:56

Girls, I didn't truly believe I was pregnant and I didn't truly believe I had a miscarriage until now. I was throwing away my old pregnancy tests and found two positives with more than just faint lines...I'm so sad that I was really pregnant because now I've lost it :(

SarahOoo · 01/11/2016 09:28

Hi MollyKate, I just wanted to say this pretty much happened to me on our first month of trying and it was so confusing and hard. Our next month it didn't happen but then it did the month after. So stay positive and use the Ovia app (it's free!). Only test AFTER a missed period and use Clear Blue Digital. Those bloody line tests can really do your head in! Best of luck...you will be fine 😊

HouseAnxiety · 01/11/2016 17:41

Oh Molly Sad
AF 2 days late now and just did FRER and got BFN!
Still feel sick and dizzy. WTF!

HouseAnxiety · 02/11/2016 06:57

AF has arrived and I feel relieved it is all over. Not sure if we'll try again. So shaky and still nauseous so trip to the doctors anyway x

Littlemisssugarplum88 · 02/11/2016 08:21

So sorry Molly :(
I have heard that evaporation lines can show up on tests after 10 mins which make a test look like a positive when it isn't. Did you the doctor prove you were pregnant by blood tests?!

Aww house I'm sorry that AF has arrived. I hope you're ok xxx
