Both are positive, but maybe leave it a couple of days and try one of the first response 6 days early tests. They're so much better.

Got everything crossed for you

Pippin2023 · 24/05/2023 22:01

A positive is a positive. And they are both clearly positive. Did rent brands use different dyes in the tests. Congratulations x

TheShellBeach · 25/05/2023 02:13

Both definitely positive!

Emmabaldwinhes · 25/05/2023 09:15

The clearblue is this mornings test, I’m just keep my fingers crossed! I don’t want another miscarriage ☹️

Make sure you don’t drink absolutely loads of water before you do the test. I did that the first time and it definitely diluted my result compared to the next test I did 2 hours later.

Emmabaldwinhes · 25/05/2023 10:17

@MariaVT65 this was my 2nd wee of the morning, I haven’t drank anything I’m 15dpo today.

Amazing. Congratulations 🩷🩵

TheShellBeach · 26/05/2023 20:07

Didn't the doctor tell you the hCG levels?

I am rooting for you anyway!

Emmabaldwinhes · 27/05/2023 09:28

No, the doctor was really rubbish and just that short message, I’ve done a test this morning and it’s not good🥺 my line doesn’t seem to be getting darker just lighter if anything

Hi again.
Being realistic, a line on a pregnancy test is just as much an indication of early conception as the hCG test you had.
Without a number, the hCG test isn't helpful until you have another one with which to compare it.

I do agree that the lines on your tests should be getting darker, but as you're not sure when you ovulated, even that isn't very helpful either.

Early pregnancy is a minefield as you know.

I think you won't know for sure till you have your second blood test.

Or if you start bleeding, you'll know it was a chemical pregnancy.

I'm sorry. I've had loads of miscarriages myself and I understand how anxious you're feeling.

Emmabaldwinhes · 27/05/2023 20:42

Yeah! Thank you for all your advice, only time will tell.

Emmabaldwinhes · 29/05/2023 09:14

BabyHope1 · 29/05/2023 09:18

So sorry OP. I experienced it first hand and I am really sorry you're going through this. Fingers crossed it happens as soon as possible

TheShellBeach · 29/05/2023 10:12

I'm very sorry, OP.

Pippin2023 · 29/05/2023 12:48

I’m so sorry. I really hope with some time you can heal and you get what you want. Hugs xx

Emmabaldwinhes · 24/06/2023 15:17

Hey ladies, I just want to get some advice I’m 8dpo is this positive. I had a miscarriage 4 weeks ago.

It could be - did you test negative after your miscarriage?

Mummapenguin20 · 24/06/2023 15:26

Did you test negative after the last miscarrige

Emmabaldwinhes · 24/06/2023 18:34

Yes I tested negative on tests and blood at the doctors!

OP posts:
Mummapenguin20 · 24/06/2023 18:58

Then I’d say this is a new pregnancy congratulations x

Em2318 · 24/06/2023 19:07

Following as I am in the same position as you @Emmabaldwinhes, had an early miscarriage on may 31st after 5 days of positive tests (I guess a chemical) confirmed negative with blood test and normal HPTs. TTC again this month and literally a day or two behind you again, I’m on 7DPO based on OPK. Fingers crossed it’s our month x

Emmabaldwinhes · 24/06/2023 19:57

@Em2318 fingers crossed for both of us🤞🏼✨

OP posts:
Em2318 · 24/06/2023 19:59

When are you going to test? Have you had any symptoms yet?
I am trying to hold off testing as had I waited 4 or 5 days with my CP i would have been non the wiser that I was pregnant and possibly spared the heartache. However I’ve just done an Amazon order for some tests so not sure how strong my willpower will be once they arrive x

Emmabaldwinhes · 25/06/2023 08:18

@Em2318 ive had sore boobs and mood swings so I tested 8dpo and got a faint positive
