Hi ladies hope you don’t mind me jumping in!
I got my positive 4 days ago on Tuesday. The lines HAVENT been progressing and got a negative digital on Thursday my AF was due Tuesday.
I really hope in due February when I think but I’m really scared I’m going to have a chemical as I tested this morning and my FRER. Hasn’t got any darker . Has anybody experienced this before?
Congratulations to u all! X

I’ve attached some pics of my tests in order
Bottom two where this morning. X

Does anyone know how accurate the clearblue weeks indicator is?
I got my 2-3 last week, done one this morning (5 weeks) and it says 1-2 :( worried I'm going to miscarry again. Last time it never went above the 1-2 weeks

@Laurenxx94 which tests were from this morning? The two taken in the same picture, or the individual CB and individual Frer?

Thanks for your reply.
Yes the individual ones were this morning. My frer aren't any different but I will attach my clear blue ones which seem to have progressed.

I'm so scared to take another digital but will do it tomorrow to rule it out. I got my bloods done on Thursday but apparently going to take 5 days 😡 I'm not holding out much hope which is devastating as we are desperate because we thought we could have children? I suppose the bright side is we can actually get pregnant x

It could be that your urine was more diluted when you took the test?

You could book an early private viability scan if you are worried

A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 · 05/06/2021 12:18

@Laurenxx94 the clearblue actually look darker than the frer. How positive are you on your dpo, do you temp? It could be that you ovulated later than you thought. For example one month I ovulated right before my period, which pushed everything back.

If you can wait two days I'd say take another test then. If you can't, you can get blood HCG betas taken two days apart to confirm doubling. It might be a battle with your GP to get those, but you can get them done for about £50 privately near me.

Good luck.

A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 · 05/06/2021 12:19

@Laurenxx94 sorry Lauren I see you said you are waiting on bloods- five days that's insane!! Mine in a similar situation came back within one hour

Well I only do OPKs so it is possible, I got my progesterone checked on day 21 which came back inconclusive so that would make sense the ovulation being pushed? Il just need to wait it out my hcg got checked on Thursday so will just need to wait on them 😭 thanks for your reply. When did you get your bfp? X

A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 · 05/06/2021 13:01

@Laurenxx94 that might be it then, my fingers are firmly crossed! Esp with an inconclusive progesterone. This month I had four days of positive opk, temping showed I actually ovulated the day after the last one. Had never had that before.

I got mine at 8dpo, I'm currently 16dpo. This is going sooooo slowly!!! I think I'm extra anxious because I had a miscarriage last year, and it took a while to get pregnant again

@tierneytarny

I’m really nauseous and quite tired. I’ve some back to bed for a lie down and to try shake the nausea. Feels far too soon for this but I feel very in tune with my body (which makes me think maybe I’m just very aware of it).

I’m still POAS everyday. Just the IC until the end of the week when I have my last FRER and CB weeks detector. Then I’m stopping....in theory.

For those booking an early scan, when are you thinking of booking it for? I had a scan at the EPU with CD1 due to a bleed and I’m optimistic that I won’t have a bleed this time and won’t be at the EPU (I have to keep positive or I’ll go crazy). I want to book a private scan but not sure when for.

My ivf clinic have booked me for 6+3, should be ok. Most clinics will say when they think it's worth scanning.

How are your tests looking now? I really hope that's the case we did do a more relaxed approach this month so didn't even see ewcm or anything wasn't looking just done my clearblue smiley opk. I will keep updated anyway thanks so much for your response will be keeping an eye on the thread good luck xx

SBfern · 05/06/2021 15:18

@tierneytarny I've got an early scan booked for the 12th June.

Using Window to the Womb and they recommend a scan 2 weeks after your positive pregnancy test 🙂

A1b2c3d4e5f6g7 · 05/06/2021 15:53

@Laurenxx94 yes pls do update, hopefully it was just a weird month for you too 🤞

My tests are okay I think, got some progression, really need to step away from them now though 🙈😂

I hope so the more I read I'm just hoping for anything to be honest xxx

HobnobbingAboutHobnobs · 06/06/2021 01:25

How have I got this many symptoms already? Heartburn, nausea, sensitive boobs and exhaustion at 4 weeks! Probably all psychosomatic...

tierneytarny · 06/06/2021 02:22

The husband has suggested holding off from a reassurance scan. I’m still undecided. It’s so hard isn’t it. I think I’ve finally broken the testing habit (though have 8 ICs to get through so you never know!).

tierneytarny · 06/06/2021 02:23

Ps - currently sat up feeling unbelievably ill. I forgot that this happened in my last pregnancy 🙈

HobnobbingAboutHobnobs · 06/06/2021 02:27

@tierneytarny glad it's not just me up in the wee hours because of pregnancy woes!

Laurenxx94 · 06/06/2021 07:31

Hi ladies got my
1-2 on CB DIGI this morning but my FRER is still faint! OH binned them all so can't even send a pic 😂
Had some mild cramping this morning and brown discharge hoping that means everything is ok. I'm stopping testing now and let nature take its course. Will test again in a weeks time with my other cb digi. X

SBfern · 06/06/2021 07:51

Started my 2nd full day of antibiotics for my UTI, its hard to know whats pregnancy cramps and what's the infection!

When I went to the toilet this morning I noticed a tiny bit of pink discharge, I'm hoping it's just the UTI causing it 🤞

Is it your first pregnancy or? I’m on my second and I swear all the early symptoms are worse this time. I can’t decide if it’s just because I know what to look for more.
thingymaboob · 06/06/2021 10:22

Hiya. I'm due early/mid Feb 2022. DC 2, one month of trying which I'm absolutely shocked as DC1 took a while, I am 35 and my bmi is 32 (have been doing slimming world to get down). Weight not going to be an issue I expect as I was over 10kg lighter at end of my last pregnancy due to hyperemesis gravidarum

Bundaberg84 · 06/06/2021 10:57

I don't have a lot of symptoms. Yesterday my lemon water tasted bitter and some other things are "off", but just slightly. My boobs are sore, like they're bruised when I touch them.
But the stupid bleeding just never stops! Still only when I'm on the toilet and wiping, but it's turned into a reddish brown. It makes me crazy!

HobnobbingAboutHobnobs · 06/06/2021 11:10

@MoonlightApple second pregnancy too - glad it's not just me! I think part of it is knowing, but not the heartburn, as I have only ever had that when pregnant last time. Probably our bodies are thinking "oh yeah, pregnancy, I remember what to do!" and are getting ahead of themselves! 😂

MabelH · 07/06/2021 14:14

Got my booking apt for 15th June which is exciting, also is the same community midwife I had with my first who I adored so I’m pleased... makes it feel more real which considering i do not feel pregnant a... I mean I am dead on my feet by the end of the day and rather backed up 🙈 but other than that don’t feel this is real... going to do a clear blue tomorrow and hope I see the 3+ Indicator! Don’t know if I’m still in denial cause it happened so quickly this time or whether this is a defence mechanism in case not viable... the first trimester sucks!!! Anyone else just not feeling pregnant?
