In December I got a bfp which ended in mc. I got my latest on Sunday at just 9dpo. Shocked or what! Never had one that early. Ever!
The test in December was taken at 1 day late and was rather faint. The one I took Sunday night was a good few days before af was due. I compared both tests and feel with this pregnancy the test earlier wasn't much different to the test in December and I'm now wondering if the tests were a telltale sign something wasn't quite right????

What do you guys think? Honestly. Is there much difference and if so how.

First pic taken December at 1 day late
2nd pic taken Sunday at 9dpo!

Thank you x

Pregnancy tests do not indicate viability of a pregnancy. They only indicate the levels of HCG in your urine. It is normal for there to be different amounts of HCG present in different pregnancies and for tests to show as positive at different times. It also depends on how dilute your urine is at the time of the test.

I'm sorry for your loss in december

Sorry for your loss but I would compare these tests as it's not an accurate way to know anything. If you are concerned the best thing to do would be to ask your dr for a blood test as it can show if over 2-3 days the levels are rising as they should. 🤞🏻 for you and a tentative congratulations ☺️

mommato3 · 05/07/2019 16:01

Thank you ladies. Was more curiosity than anything but that totally makes sense. I'm not too worried at thus stage as tests this time have progressed rapidly... this was this morning!

That's a blazing one right there! Ics are alway much fainter 😩 looks great!
I was close to comparing mine to my chemical last month but I got my bfp on different days and levels rise differently in arch anyway
(Also must have replied to this in a daydream earlier didn't realise it was you 🙈)

Have you got a drs app or anything booked?

mommato3 · 05/07/2019 16:27

Haha @Abi58 Yes it's me!!!!

It's a corker that frer isn't it! Not bad to say I'm only 15dpo today 😮 I must say I was quite impressed with that one haha x

mommato3 · 05/07/2019 16:28

And yes, sorry forgot to answer the drs question. I have my booking appointment on August 5th 👍 How about you? X

OP posts:
Abi58 · 05/07/2019 17:00

@mommato3 it definitely is! 😁
Ah that's good! Booked mine for the 30th I'll be 8.5 weeks ish :)
5 weeks today seems so early but so far all at the same time 🙈
How are you feeling?

mommato3 · 05/07/2019 19:05

@Abi58 It does feel like a long way off doesn't it but it's really not!
I'm fine other than the boobs!!!! They feel huge and they hurt!!!!
Are you ok? What's your EDD? Xx

Argh... I have to reschedule my booking appointment. Just remembered we're in family court all day on the 5th... what poo!!

@Abi58 I can't wait to see a 3+ on a digi, have 2 coming. Had a 1-2 so hope for a 2-3 next!

My due date is 14th March. Only a week apart

OP posts:
Abi58 · 06/07/2019 11:07

@mommato3 oh no hopefully not too far after?
It was good to see it in words 😁 when do they arrive?
So close! And with how the dates they actually arrive can vary you never know they could share a birthday 🙈

mommato3 · 06/07/2019 11:11

@Abi58 I'll have to ring them on Monday and make it as close as possible.

They should be arriving anytime but we're away at our caravan at the moment. Hadn't planned on doing another before Monday. Be my luck I'll skip 2-3!!!!

Yes absolutely. It's also my eldests birthday on the 12th!!

OP posts:
Abi58 · 06/07/2019 11:34

@mommato3
How many weeks would you have been at the app you had booked?
Ahhhh do you want to see all the jumps? Not a bad sign if you skip straight to 3 😁
Possibly a birthday present? 🙈

mommato3 · 06/07/2019 11:49

@Abi58 5th aug I'd have been 8+2
Seeing them all would be nice but I'll take whatever as long as bean sticks!!!
Hmmm it's not until 29th so technically it's come early 🤣 will make sure bean knows when it's old enough too 😍

OP posts:
Abi58 · 06/07/2019 12:38

@mommato3 ah ok you have a bit of give if needs to be later :) I think I'll be 8+4 at mine
Yes true! :)
Awww 😁 would your eldest be happy to share a birthday?

mommato3 · 06/07/2019 16:54

@Abi58 Yes hopefully I won't have to wait too much longer to get in again...
It's difficult to know how she'll feel about it. She's a very typical 18 year old 🤷‍♀️ lol

OP posts:
Abi58 · 06/07/2019 17:00

@mommato3 🤞🏻
Make sure you enjoy your time away 😁
Haha true! It's more likely to be somewhere close than on it though😁

mommato3 · 06/07/2019 17:04

@Abi58 Oh we are. Very much.

Oh yes. I'd say so. I was late with my other 3. And my partners 2 were both late also. So I think it will be late.

Just a little worried now as the kids wanted to go on the bumper cars. Thought nothing of it til we hopped off. Then I googled it and found out it was an absolute no no 😢 Now I'm worried I could have harmed my little bean.....

OP posts:
Abi58 · 06/07/2019 17:10

@mommato3 glad you're having a good time 😁

You never know 😁 but at least you're prepared it could be longer :)

Aw try not to worry I know they have signs on usually but I think it's for when you're further along 💕 can't imagine it able to harm at this stage

mommato3 · 06/07/2019 17:28

@Abi58 we love it here

Oh definitely!

I hope not... 🤞🤞

OP posts:
Abi58 · 06/07/2019 17:47

@mommato3 that's good! Do you go often? We need a holiday! 😂

🤞🏻 but I'm sure all is fine a lot of it is guidance as there is a risk when a study has been done but like I said I think it would be a later stage with bumper cars, if you were suddenly an adrenaline junkie bungee jumping and eating all the wrong things and doing drugs then maybe you should worry 😂🙈💕

mommato3 · 06/07/2019 20:54

@Abi58 We come most weekends and have a good week during the big school holidays and do what we can during the other holidays too. Awwww can't beat a good break 👍

I'm sure you're right but one can't help but worry... it's something I definitely won't be doing again!!! Haha yeah... and those types of people don't suffer losses much and that drives me nuts!!!

OP posts:
Abi58 · 06/07/2019 22:28

@mommato3 that's lovely! Is it far for you?

I know! Don't worry 💕

mommato3 · 06/07/2019 23:02

It's in flamborough, near Bridlington, only about an hour and a half drive away. So not too bad. Well worth it though 👍 It's our happy place

I think I'm addicted to liquorice all sorts 🤦‍♀️😂

OP posts:
Abi58 · 06/07/2019 23:12

@mommato3 ah that's not too bad especially if you love it there 😁
I don't blame you they're lovely!
