True positive at 11dpo?

[Lauren912]

I'm just looking for some reassurance really that this faint line on clearblue ultra early test looks good for 11dpo.
I've had two mmc (latest in August at 9 weeks but measuring 5.5).
I wouldn't usually test 5 days before a missed period but I just woke up with a feeling I was pregnant. I'm not sure why as I don't have any symptoms, haha. So I ordered some FRER tests on Amazon this morning but couldn't wait that long.
The line is faint but definitely there, and I'm pretty sure it's not an evap line as it's pink and showed up within a few minutes.
I guess I'm just looking for someone to tell me they're seeing what I'm seeing and that it's definitely a positive before I tell my hubby

I see it! 😊

I've taken the second test in the box (I couldn't help myself) and I'm not doubting it's an early positive now. Again, the line showed up within 3 minutes.

I have a couple of FRER tests that should arrive this afternoon, so I'll try to space out taking these two tests for a few days to hopefully see it become a stronger positive.

After two losses I'm feeling like it's too good to be true that I'm pregnant again within 2 cycles

Tentative congratulations! I have my fingers crossed for you ❤️

I’m sorry for your earlier losses, I had an early MMC myself in July so know how hard it is. I am 1DPO today of my 2nd cycle since, you have given me some hope! 😊

Thank you, I'm so sorry you've gone through this too. It's such an anxious time. Wishing you all the luck that this will be your cycle. I felt really down when I didn't fall pregnant the first cycle due to all the stories I heard of people falling pregnant again instantly following a mc.

I'm guarding my heart as I think it may be a chemical pregnancy. I couldn't wait and took the two FRER tests the first yesterday evening 11dpo (top test in the picture) and the second with my FMU today, which would be 12dpo. The test from this morning is definitely lighter, so I'm thinking I'm out for this month too

I felt exactly the same after the 1st cycle post MMC, I wasn’t expecting how much more the disappointment would hit me out of all the previous negatives, because I’d built it up so much.

I’m so sorry, I know how difficult the wait will be now to see which way it goes. Look after yourself today 💐

I know for me the hope was so high for the first cycle and once it come back negative, I was just stuck with the carrying on of processing the miscarriage. Thank you for your kind words ❤️ I don't want anyone else to be in this situation, but it's nice knowing I'm not the only person this has happened to. I hope you're looking after yourself and being kind to yourself.

I bought another 2 x clearblues as they're the tests I started out with. I've just tested with one amd I'd say it's the same as yesterdays. As hard as it is not to test, I'm going to leave it until Tuesday to take the second as I'll then know for sure if there's no progression / gotten lighter. I will attempt to not test tomorrow and just distract myself with work. I've felt so silly taking this many tests 😂 but I just can't seem to help myself when I'm so uncertain

It’s completely understandable and I know it’s the only thing you can do at the moment to try and understand what is happening, but as lines can appear different between tests / urine dilution etc your plan to wait until Tuesday is a good one, giving hcg another 48 hours. I hope you get a clearer answer soon, and there is still hope while AF is still absent! 😊

Most definitely! Strange thing is the pics look so much fainter once uploaded on mumsnet, but when I look at the 2 pics on my phone (first clearblue yesterday and clearblue today) there is slight progression, so who knows! It's the lighter FRER this morning that has thrown me off.

This morning I was really disappointed but I'm making peace with it being a chemical, so we'll see what the test on Tuesday brings. At least I'll have a definitive answer then.

I hope you're having a lovely weekend x

This line progression seems to play a massive part now whereas when I had my first kids ( teens ) I just took one test and it was positive so that was it until the first scan

i would really try not to worry - so many people on here without the line progression that go on to have healthy babies xx

@Lauren912 didn't want to read and run, I really hope the test tomorrow gets darker for you!

With my first two pregnancies I was exactly the same, I did the two tests in the packet and never purchased anymore. It's 100% the two mmc that play into it.

I'll be honest, before the above happened I wasn't even aware of what a chemical pregnancy was. I only become familiar with it when I started reading on mn. It then triggered the memory of reading those posts when the FRER came back lighter the morning following the first positive. I think that's the issue with previous losses, it makes you search for any bit of pre-warning that something may happen.

I feel really proud of myself that I've been able to leave the testing alone for 48hrs 😂

I'm not paying for anymore tests though, so if the tests tomorrow show a lighter line, I'll tell myself it's a chemical and exoect my period to come. If it's darker, I'll accept I'm pregnant 😂 xx

Good luck for tomorrow and please update
everything crossed for you xxx

Good luck for tomorrow @Lauren912! ✨

So I've taken another test and it's definitely darker! One thing I didn't take into account was that the first test was 6 days before my missed period, so that would account for the line taking a couple of days to get darker.

I have two tests left so I'll wait a to take those for a couple of days once my expected period and missed period are here. Fingers crossed this one sticks xx

I forgot to add the image 😂

@Lauren912 that’s a great line when AF isn’t even due yet! Congratulations! Xx

@Springcloud26 Thank you ❤️ now I just need to try to not overanalyse every little sensation haha.

Fingers crossed you get your positive this month too! Xx

Thank you so much @Lauren912! 4 DPO today so I’ll soon be at the point when I’ll try not to test each day 😂
