I think I'm about to have my second chemical. No progression on tests since yesterday, also feeling less nausea and I think my boobs are also smaller. I guess that's a bad sign? 😡feels so unfair

I'm sorry. I know how you feel, I've had 4 missed miscarriages and a long journey (not the quickest conceptions!). Sending hugs xx

I feel you, had 2 miscarriages, it’s horrible, definitely the worse times of my life x

Have you had your blood clotting speed checked ?

Have you had your feretin checked ?

Feretin plays a role in getting preg and staying preg

They look like those cheap tests, have you used a clearblue yet. They would be much stronger. The tests you have there look like the cheapies from the gp. How far along are you? Mine were definitely that light at the start with my rainbow

I'm sorry, I've had losses too so know how soul destroying it is.

One thing I would say is you wouldn't tend to get much progression in one day, so in itself that doesn't mean much. How early are you testing? 💕

Maybe 11/12/13dpo, not exactly sure! The thing that worrying me is the reducing nausea. I'm almost out of tests so guess there's nothing I can do than to see what happens!

In my opinion clear blue is awful and the boots/superdrug own are much better

@MarthaFaukas buy some first response from Amazon, they are much more sensitive. Nausea reducing really isn't a sign of anything this early, fingers crossed for you x

I've had good experiences with them but everyone's different. I agree boots are good as well.

Try not to worry but I totally get it. I've had four losses. 2 miscarriages and a stillbirth and neonatal death [twin boys] but I had my rainbow 11 weeks ago. So I completely get the agony of waiting. It never leaves you but theres nothing you can do. That helped me a lot after the death of my twin sons. When my daughter's pregnancy tests were so light I kept telling myself, its literally out of my hands. Wishing you all the best. Pm if you need to chat

Kindly, maybe checking so much is just heightening your anxiety which won't help your body. I know it's easier said than done but give your body grace and time.
