Bit of background. I lost my first baby to a TFMR in my second trimester late last year. It was obviously devastating. This is our first month trying again. I’m 12dpo. I have had a very faint positive FRER today and yesterday (11dpo). It’s slightly clearer in real life but it’s still hard to see. I think last time my test was darker at this stage and I’m worried it hasn’t progressed at all from yesterday.

I know only time will tell if I’m pregnant or if it is viable. It’s just that I am suddenly struggling with the uncertainty of it all again. I feel so emotional about potentially being pregnant again, and I can’t help feel worried by the fact that the line isn’t darker. I guess I’m just looking for a hand hold, or maybe some positive stories of people who had this faint of a line at 12DPO.
Thank you for reading.

I'm so sorry for your loss OP. I can see the line and wishing you the best of luck.

I’ve been there OP. Almost exactly in fact. My faint line the first month of trying after the sorrow of a TFMR turned into my darling 5 yo DD currently asleep upstairs.

Deepest sympathies on your loss and the very best of luck with what hopefully is about to followFlowers

So sorry for your loss OP.

I’m currently 14 weeks and everything is looking good so far. I got my squinter BFP at 11dpo with a FRER and it looked exactly like yours. I was also worried because with my son I got my BFP at 8dpo and the line was much darker at 11dpo but like I said, everything seems to be going well at the moment. Baby was looking perfectly healthy at my scan so I hope it’s the same outcome for you and I’m sure it will be ❤️

I definitely see the line there. Congratulations! Sticky dust your way.
