Does anyone else get they are frightened to test cos until then there is always hope?
Love and hugs to all. X

Yup me, no way I'm going to test yet. Felt like AF should be here soon but won't test anyway.

Sorry wangdoodle I have no idea.


Going to really lose my temper today with hubby. I'm trying to get my last 2 parcels sent out today for work. So realised I had left my bag with everything in it at my parents with all the wrapping and envelopes. So while I started sent hubby round the corner to get tape, labels and small bubble wrap. He comes back a hour later with tape and large bubble wrap (which won't fit in the parcels). So still stuck, have sent him out again but he's been ages, so looks as though I'm going to miss the post today. Not happy! He can't be relied on to get anything right, even worse he's took my car, for a journey that's quicker on foot (the shop is literally round the corner 2 minutes away).

Vesper, I'll test if you test!

Thanks girls.

Claretsgirl that never happens to me as my luteal phase is so short AF always shows up before I start to hope. Sounds promising for you tho. And Vesper. Good luck if you decide to test x

I am CD23 and I think I am 8DPO, I am never sure, as I don't track OV, but I am normally spot on 28 days cycle. I am very emotional, cried almost three times at watching tinkerbell and yesterday I was almost crying at other tv shows. My breast are also very tender and painfull in the evening, so I think I am out, all very much signs my af is on it's way already. Last month I was two days early, so if this happens again (which is strange for me, so not sure what is happening with my periods) I will be due af on wednesday.

Hi Wangdoodle I had very similar a few mths ago, AF started when I expected and as it lasted a bit longer than normal I tested and it was positive.

Sadly it was a chemical and I was left feeling really devastated at what might of been :0(

Only advice I can give is see your GP next wk who if anything like mine will do a urine test and potentially a blood test.

Got my fingers tightly crossed that it's not a chemical but to protect your feelings I'd suggest getting your head round the fact that it may well be.

Big hugs xxxx

wangdoodle

Thanks lolly. I'm sorry for your chemical. I have now peed on every stick I have. They're all positive but feint. Still spotting from AF tho. I'm so scared. How long did you continue to test positive?

Sorry you're going through this it's very confusing and upsetting xxxx

wangdoodle that looks like my TLP did one day after AF was due. I tested the next day and it was darker but still quite faint. If you only had light bleeding with your AF it's possible you could be pregnant. It's possible to bleed throughout apparently (so I was told by the doctor when I had bleeding with DS1). It might be worth testing every day for the next few days to see if the line gets any darker or disappears.
I did a few more tests on various days after my BFP (just to see how dark the line could go) and it wasn't until I was 5 weeks that the line got that I would call dark - and it's still not as dark as the control line.

I can't comment on whether it was a chemical as I wouldn't know, but I wouldn't rule out the possibility you might actually be pregnant either.

Fingers and Toes crossed for you!

Hugs to all the ladies that need them - hoping to see as many of you as possible on the 12 weeks or Less thread soon!

If I remember I tested positive the Friday and Saturday and possibly the Sunday including on a digi. By the Monday at the GP they got a negative test and the blood test was 4 which anything under 5 they consider negative.

I think I must have caught levels on the way back down when I was testing it that makes sense?

I might test tomorrow and see. Depends, not sure I actually have any tests here. I know I'm 14dpo but I'm going to wait until I'm late. Cramping now, so don't think it's very far away.
