BFP yesterday and today I feel so ill!

[Penny31]

Everything seems to be happening so quick. Last week I hadn't even DTD and today I know I'm pregnant and I feel really ill.

I can't concentrate at work, my head is pounding, I have felt sick all day and I can't stop going to the toilet.

I'm 1 week pregnant, how can I be so ill?

Technically you're about 3 weeks as it starts from date of last period.
Am I reading it right that you got a bfp less than a week after dtd? That's impressive!

I tested because I threw up in Boots. Then Comet. Then out of the car window.

Yes that is exactly what has happened! Dtd on Friday and here we are. I kid you not.

I am sat at working trying to fight the tug to just get up and go home to bed

Maybe you have a bug.

I meant urge not tug

Definitely pregnant. Got a positive on a digital test last night.

I suppose it could be a bug, just really bad timing

Gosh never heard of anyone getting a positive so soon, congratulations!

Are you sure you're only 1-3 weeks?

I'm sorry but I've never heard of someone getting a BFP less than a week after DTD, is it even possible?

I think it's more likely that you are further along than you think

Congratulations though!

I know I haven't either! It seems crazy

So dtd Friday and positive test Wednesday? That's a bfp 5 days after sex. As far as I'm aware that's impossible, it takes 5 days or more for the fertilised egg to travel down to your womb and then a few days to start to implant and only then are hormones released which pass into your urine to give a bfp. Any chance you're pregnant from last month?

Honestly we hadn't dtd all
Month we decided we would start trying and and threw away the contraception. So on Friday, 2 days before my af due dat we dtd after a few drinks.

Then last night I got a positive on s clear blue. It said 1-2 weeks.

What is going on?

Maybe you're having twins! Hence the strong early BFP?

Is it possible that the clear blue test has given a false reading?

I would wait two weeks and test again. It does seem almost impossible that you would get a BFP 5 days after sex.

Maybe it's a bug. Fingers crossed you feel better soon. Congrats!

I think certain medications can give a false positive. Are you taking any medication?

That's not possible . I would test again .

OP, what made you test so early?

And did the reading come up in the correct time frame?

I've read coming of the pill can boost your fertility the first month...but I'd bet it failed and you're more than one week pregnant.

Congratulations!

You must be further along, it won't be possible to get a BFP less than a week after DTD! I'd be taking a trip to the docs and getting seen by a midwife, maybe you can have an early scan to establish how far along you actually are! Congrats!

I known not further along. Definitely not we didn't dtd after last period. One and only time was Friday.

I tested because I felt sick and af is late. I knew it's was early and I was being ridiculous so fully expected not pregnant. The word pregnant came up straight away and then 1-2 weeks shortly after.

Just done a cheapy dye test and that says I'm not pregnant.

Hormonal contraception that's still in your system can give a false positive, according to the ClearBlue website... maybe it's that?

Haven't been on the pill for 4 years!

Hi OP,

Sorry but I suspect your second test is correct and you probably have a bug at the moment, terrible timing obviously.

Fingers crossed you'll get your BFP soon.
