So, at the end of March, beginning of April, I unfortunately had a 12 week scan which showed that I had miscarried.

Since then I've had my first cycle on 4th May, and we've started trying again. According to my cycle app, I'm 5 days away from my next period, but over the last couple of days I have been getting up in the night to pee and going constantly throughout the day, my areolas are bumpy again and I swear my breasts have grown. (But I don't know if they ever went down after the miscarriage?!)

But even on early tests, I'm getting negatives. I know I have to wait until the day of missed period really, so I just need someone to give me a little slap and tell me to stop over thinking little things, please? Don't want to get my hopes up... But also if anyone has hopeful stories about similar events, it really wouldn't go amiss.

(And I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place!)

Avoid testing before your period is due and only use first morning wee. I tested too early and had a negative. A few days later it was positive. The following day I tested during the afternoon (with diluted wee) and it was negative again. The next morning I tested positive. It turned out to be twins but I could really have saved myself a lot of disappointment (and money) by following the testing instructions 😋. Best of luck!

Thanks - funnily enough this morning, I've had 3 positive pregnancy tests. Not going to get too overly excited as the last one ended sadly, but I can't say I'm not very happy!

Yay! I also had bfp 4 days before missed period which was a few days ago. Period would be due tomorrow and I'm petrified of this being a chemical pregnancy but there's nothing I can do other than hope.
Congrats op!
