Someone tell me if this is negative or positive? In serious denial

Have been using condoms with no fault before I get the IUD next week. This is such a shock. I am only 22 and already have two young children so this is daunting for me. Im due on my period in 2 days, these results where from yesterday.

I've been to every supermarket and brought their own brand tests, Asda, Sainsbury's and Tesco. All show a faint line within two minutes (as the picture shows) I've also used clear blue which gives the same faint line. Id planned to get a digital but I'm too nervous, I will go later. I'm in serious denial and currently trying to tell myself they're indent/evap lines, but surely I wouldn't get indent/evaps on all 10 tests from 4 different brands would i!?

Hello there

I’ve seen your other threads - you are pregnant.

So, I’d jump out of denial and have a think about what you want to do.

I say that because you don’t seem happy about this outcome

Does your partner know, what do they say?

Have you an idea about how you want to proceed?

@whitewashgails

Thanks for your reply. Partner isn't happy, it will be his first child (my two belong to my ex) financially we are able to support a child but emotionally he doesn't feel he's ready for the commitment. If he was happier about it I think I would be more relaxed and excited but his unhappiness is making me worry. He says he isn't ready but will be there for me and the child regardless.

I am considering abortion, I might book a consultation but I doubt I will go through with it. I have always felt strongly against abortion as a choice for myself and I don't like the idea of it. I know it's what my partner would prefer which is the only reason I am considering

These are all positive, aren't they? You know it too! I too would be overwhelmed if I was in your position, you have time on your hands because you're still quite early, so just relax an breathe for a minute. Christmas is a very turbulent time for a lot of people and so I wouldn't want you or your partner to make a rushed decision. What's making him not ready? Is it that he enjoys his child free life too much or is he just scared? I guess he sees your other 2 children, how is he around them? If he's just scared, I imagine he's in the same boat as a lot of other men! My husband was 25 when we had my son and he suddenly grew up and stepped up to the mark. Similarly our best friends were 19 when they had their first and the dad is amazing, 8 years on even though he was so bloody scared! Sometimes it just takes time to sink in and for men, abortion can seem like a get out of jail free card, give him time to work out what he wants too and you can then hopefully make a joint decision. Xx

Positive 1-2 weeks on clear blue, no hiding it now
