I'm hoping that someone on where will have and a sinikaiet experience or some knowledge they may be able to share.

Last Novemebr I had a MMC at 10 weeks but didn't give birth until 13.5 weeks. It was very traumatic and broke me completely. Not long after I had a chemical pregnancy. We gave up trying and I went on the pill. I needed to come to terms with my losses and grieve without trying to conceive at the same time. A few months ago I came off the pill as I didn't like the side effects. Within a week I had a period and my last 3 cycles have been there regular 31 days like clockwork. However this cycle is different, I and now 15 days late! I know there are other reasons this could be but I very much feel pregnant especially my breasts which are very heavy and nipples are noticeably larger.

I have done many tests and didn't get a positive until about 9 days late but it was incredibly faint, husband couldn't see it so maybe wishful thinking. I left it a few days and done a CB digital which said not pregnant. EPU wouldn't see me because of the BFN and said that it was probably a chemical pregnancy and to expect a period soon. 5 days after that and still no period or any sign that one is coming. I decided to take a Tesco own brand test as that was what gave me my BFP last pregnancy. It wasn't in your face but you could def see the positive, I knew I wasn't going mad because hubby also confirmed he could see it and was excited. I done another this morning with the first wee as directed and I had a BFN. Now as you can imagine I am very confused, distressed and upset. EPU want me in tomorrow morning but only for a urine sample. Apparently they have a machine to test your sample which is 100% effective. They don't want to do bloods as it costs too much.

I guess after my long winded rant I just want to know if anyone has experienced similar and has had a happy outcome or if I'm just loosing my mind. Thanks in advance Smile

I haven't had a similar experience but just wanted to offer a handhold. This is an incredibly difficult time but you will know the answer tomorrow morning and you can't influence the outcome one way or another by worrying about it, so try to reduce your stress levels because the level of stress hormones coursing through your body right now is not doing any good at all. Get your coat on and go out for a walk. Look at the sky and count your blessings. Whatever happens tomorrow, this is a marathon not a sprint and you need to be OK with taking things slow and steady and not always knowing what is going to happen in the immediate future. However, in the long term, you are going to be OK. Flowers
