This is a totally pointless thread but I'm so excited and needed to share! I'm 39, been TTC since September 2016 and had two miscarriages and a chemical in that time. I haven't even had a hint of a BFP for over a year now, but I've just tested this morning (it's morning here) and got this!! Don't know why I'm posting really but I just wanted to share Grin i can't quite believe it!!

OMG I'm pregnant!!

Oh that's brilliant, well done. I get the shock thing when you just expect it to be one line!!

flyingplum · 16/02/2019 08:26

Thanks :). It was our first positive anything in over a year, so I got really excited, but then I did some reading last night in miscarriage stats for PCOS and endo and they make for grim reading, so am trying to be cautiously optimistic. At least we know we 'can'! (Sorry...that was a bit of a downer!)

Karigan195 · 16/02/2019 08:26

Lol I know how you feel. We tried for a year and we’re getting nowhere so I just stopped worrying about it. The OMG that’s actually a line when it happened. Still didn’t feel real until the scan.

Thank you @thesunwillout and @Karigan195 for your understanding of my crazy feelings of shock and disbelief lol! And @flyingplum I know it's hard but try to stop googling, you'll drive yourself mad with it and the stress isn't good for the baby Flowers

Aww thanks everyone! I'm now 5+4 and feeling very positive about this pregnancy, although trying to stay realistic too Smile I have a very early scan on Friday, because of my history of early miscarriage, so I'll pop back on then to let you all know x
