So ladies.
You don’t need to say anything!! I know how stupid this will sound 🙈
My son is 14 weeks this Wednesday and this morning I woke up so nauseous I was very nearly sick a few times (I’m never sick) it passed by mid morning, I then went to the toilet and wiped what looked like an implant bleed, nothing since.
I’m EBF apart from a couple of weeks ago where I subbed a few feeds for a couple of days.
Anyone else ever been in this position. Is it normal to spot during breastfeeding?
I can’t get out to get a test today so sat on the sofa feeding my newborn worrying slightly 🤦‍♀️
Xxx

I was gonna say 'what's wrong with pull out method?' but that looks kind of positive...

WildSkitty · 23/06/2020 11:46

I am not convinced it's an evap line either. I hope another test gives you a definitive answer.

Soubriquet · 23/06/2020 11:58

That looks like it’s positive

BruceAndMarley · 23/06/2020 12:05

Hi OP, I just wanted to hop on and say I really admire your light hearted approach. It’s nice to read something chaotic but light hearted on MN ! You’re doing so well, and I hope whatever the outcome is, you’re happy. My friend got pregnant whilst EBF , and another friend of mine got pregnant just 4 weeks post c-section! There is 9 months between her two, AND she also had a 2 & 4 year old so life was crazy but she managed . It’s more common than you’d think getting pregnant when breast feeding . But you’ll be ok you’ve got this ! A nice big family ! 💕☀️

xxmrsbxx · 23/06/2020 12:13

That is the same test I used and mine had the same faint line, I did another one a few days later and it was a lot darker I’m now 20 weeks. I wouldn’t say it was an evaporation line

Regularsizedrudy · 23/06/2020 12:20

I agree @FurbabyLife .. if I had a £ for every time I’ve seen basically this exact thread..

Merename · 23/06/2020 12:41

Haha, you’re not a dickhead. Enjoyed reading this and look forward to updates!

Myhooversucks · 23/06/2020 12:46

@Regularsizedrudy haha... yes I see now You’d probably be rich and had I seen the countless posts about this exact same thing I’d probably not be in this predicament.
But I don’t feel bad about being here, just laughing at myself really,
If someone was to be this careless and opt for abortion after abortion I’d understand your negativity but I’m able to give my family a loving home so I don’t understand your perception, if people are happy to have more children why would it necessarily be wrong to be careless.
Of course You're entitled to your opinion though.

Wow!
Why am I irresponsible? Because I might be having another baby? Which our family would love!
Having no colour to test lines generally means an evap line... as for a positive test to be positive it HAS to have colour.

Good luck OP. ignore the negativity, if you're happy that's all that matters

MinesALatte · 23/06/2020 13:17

So shocked by some of these comments, I can’t see anything irresponsible here. 🤦🏼‍♀️

Mamimawr · 23/06/2020 13:19

That looks positive to me, but ask him to bring home a First Response test. Good luck! With the gaps you have a sibling for your baby would be lovely!

HansBanans · 23/06/2020 13:19

Just ignore them OP. It sounds like you and your family are happy to have another child and you are financially stable, so although it's a shock it's still fantastic news. Don't let the contraception brigade put a dampener on it for you. As other posters have said, they've been on contraception and it's failed (I've known several who were on the pill/implant etc and still fell pregnant) x

Brenna24 · 23/06/2020 13:19

I would have loved a big family and babies close together. Best of luck whichever way it goes.

NoRoomInBed · 23/06/2020 13:21

Shame about the other posters. Sounds like an other baby wouldn't be the end of the world. Please update when you can 😊

Regularsizedrudy · 23/06/2020 13:22

I’m really not meaning to be negative and of course you are entitled to have as many children as you want, it sounds like they will have a lovely supportive home. I think I just struggle to get my head around it. I’ve had it drilled into me that breastfeeding and pull out are not forms of contraception. It shocks me that people still think this I suppose.

Soubriquet · 23/06/2020 13:24

Why on Earth are people getting arsey over someone else who they aren’t even related to, possibly having another baby?!

It’s up the OP if she wants to keep or abort her own child if she is indeed pregnant.

Butt out

Myhooversucks · 23/06/2020 13:24

I take it you haven’t read the whole post. Maybe before asking those questions, you’ll see I’ve already answered them.
Where does it end? Maybe I want 10 children... does that bother you?

borntohula · 23/06/2020 13:25

Well YABU for judging anyone for having an abortion. Unless you actually were secretly trying, your situation isn't that different.

FurbabyLife · 23/06/2020 13:25

Maybe I want 10 children... does that bother you?

You don’t though. You just don’t understand contraception! 😂

mummabubs · 23/06/2020 13:28

I have to say that looks a lot like my clear blue test result a few years ago, the outcome of which has just drawn all over our living room wallpaper in biro! 🤦🏻‍♀️ I'd definitely say maybe read up on the evidence (or lack thereof) for the pull out method if you plan to keep relying on it (don't!) but equally if you're happy with the idea of another child and can afford it then I'm happy for you and your family.

Myhooversucks · 23/06/2020 13:32

@FurbabyLife
An evap line shows up as grey! A water mark which has no colour! For HGC to be present a colour will be present even if extremely light. My last comment was also directed at you.
I always knew pull out wasn’t safe but when my periods never came back with any other children for months I thought the chances would be tiny for me considering my pattern has always been the same. So in my opinion I still took a small risk which I was happy to do.
