Am I really pregnant?

Hi there!

So I've done three tests now and each time the lines are getting darker, I tested the day of my missed period 09/02 Monday 11/02 and Tuesday 12/02 and each time they've come back positive! I've only had a few symptoms such as the light period cramping, headaches, backache, salivating more, mood swings, faint metallic taste and bloating but some part of me just still doesn't feel like I am. Is this normal?

Yes I would say the symptom part is completely normal and your tests are positive. But they are still quite faint if you're past your missed period. I would try again on a First Response as I've always had the best lines on those. Good luck.

It probably doesn’t feel right because you don’t want to jinx it! Congrats OP!

Congratulations! Totally normal. "Big" symptoms (like puking 24/7) didn't kick in for me til 8 weeks. First few weeks are anxious bliss. (Even now at 31 weeks and seeing my stomach ripple as the baby moves, I still can't quite "believe" there's a baby in there.)

You are definitely pregnant - congratulations! I found it hard to believe until I actually saw the scan Smile

I used one of the digital ones that actually says pregnant or not and how many weeks, they're a bit pricy but at least it tells you on it! Maybe get one of those if you want to be absolutely sure.

Although this looks like a positive test to me! Congratulations Thanks
