Hi everyone, this is my first time posting here, so I hope I'm doing it right.
On September 5th, I had a miscarriage after a strong heartbeat was detected at 6 weeks. Unfortunately, the baby stopped growing at 8 weeks and 4 days, and I had to undergo a D&C.
Fast forward to today—I'm 19 DPO. My apps show that I’m 4 weeks and 4 days pregnant, but I ovulated on November 22nd (confirmed by OPK), which makes it 2 weeks and 5 days since conception.
My lines on FRER are dark and solid, but every other test I’ve taken has shown a faint line. The Clearblue digital says 1-2 weeks, which is making me very anxious.
In my last pregnancy, I got dark lines and symptoms right away, so I can't help but worry. I really want to take another Clearblue digital, but I only have one left, and they’re expensive. I'm trying to space them out, hoping the next one will show 2-3 weeks to give me some reassurance.
Weirdly, I had intense symptoms during my TWW, but now, my symptoms include insomnia, lack of appetite, and coffee tasting awful to me (which is unusual as I’m a big coffee drinker). I also have mildly sore boobs.
Has anyone experienced something similar and gone on to have a successful pregnancy? I’m still traumatized from my miscarriage, but I’m trying to stay realistic and not get my hopes up too much.
Any positive stories would be greatly appreciated. I could possibly have gotten my LH surge peak wrong, or perhaps I implanted later? I am really not sure - I also need to make a more conscious effort to test first thing in the morning which I know results in darker lines.
