Advice needed 4days pre test date

[AJJ123]

I am going (have gone) bat s crazy. I need some guidance from some experienced ppl.

Some of you may know i stupidly tested on Friday (8dp 3dt and 2dt) with a first response rapid (50miu). Got what I hope is my bfp.

I also tested yesterday and today, displayed in picture with 25miu.

Should it have gotten much darker ? I’m now 15 days post trigger. 250 ml of Ovitrelle was given on 22nd- meant to take 10 days to disappear from body.

Could I be having a chemical because I tested in the afternoon and it was a faint line.

I’m really worried and I know I brought this on myself. I was told to test Thursday and I didn’t listen. Now I’m umming and ahhhing creating loads of stress for myself.

What have I done!

Pls help.

I did exactly the same and became a serial tester...I don’t think the line would have become too much darker... and. Line is a line.... test on otd now and I think it will be darker... congratulations... I bet your on cloud 9 and cant quite believe it...Xx

[AJJ123 in reply to destiny121]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who does this. My husband does not know the scale of it! I’ve actually stressed myself out a lot over it. Today I visited a family member and their two day old. I didn’t mention my test, I’d burst out crying if I did xx

[destiny121 in reply to AJJ123]

Ahhhh bless you... well done for visiting... not sure I could have tbh... but yes I brought lots of tests and I would sometimes do 2 in day... when u want something so bad makes you do crazy things.... but you have ur bfp 😊😊😊

[AJJ123 in reply to destiny121]

It was difficult but I just had to put a brave face on and try not to cry!

Did you notice your test was fainter in the afternoon? I’d only tested am (in the photo) and pm it was a line but very light.

[destiny121 in reply to AJJ123]

I cant really remember... maybe a little but not that I’d really notice tbh...

I’m no expert but wanted to offer support. Sunday looks like a slightly stronger line to me! It’s still a positive! You haven’t brought anything on yourself, please don’t think like that, it’s so hard not to test early and we all get

that. There’s absolutely nothing you can do ‘wrong’ at the moment, if it’s going to stick it’s going to stick. Hang in there x

[AJJ123 in reply to Arya10]

Thanks that’s comforting to hear.

I was so happy then I realised how early it was and I’m panicking a lot xx

[Lou7744]

Hi there, I think that Sunday’s test looks darker than Saturday’s. Wishing you lots of luck 🤞💕 xx

[AJJ123 in reply to Lou7744]

Thank you so much. I am so worried because I have wanted this for so long. I’m absolutely terrified that it’s not real xx

[Hidden]

Woo hoo. Congratulations! I did read that the poas tests are not too scientific so not to read too much next to each other on darkness xxx

[AJJ123 in reply to Hidden]

Thanks I used clear blue this afternoon (I know even dr said fmu - on test day tho) and it was so faint so I have panicked.

My sister has worried me by saying it might not stick. So I’ve been worried since.

She’s one of the lucky ones who can get pregnant easily (4 times). Not so easy for me xx

[Mifkipi]

Congrats! I panicked because my line got lighter towards my otd but my clinic says a line is a line. My husband has now thrown away all my tests because all I could do all day long was test after test after test and I'd spend all day worrying about the colour of the lines!!!

[AJJ123 in reply to Mifkipi]

Yes, well I’ve run out now lol and I refuse to buy any more.

I have 1 digi for test day xx

[baby2016]

To me Sunday does look slightly darker. Don’t worry, easier said than done, but hcg doubles every 48hrs so in theory you should compare tomorrow’s test to saturdays test and you’ll see the difference. Congratulations 😊xx

[Snez84]

I tested early too and it almost worries you more doesn’t it. My clinic provide these tests for OTD and my second line wasn’t dark, not even on test day. We used a CB digital a couple of days later and it said 3+ so I think it might just be the brand.

Try not to worry - all will be fine. Congratulations!xx

[AJJ123 in reply to Snez84]

Thanks xx

[Purpledazzle27]

I managed to wait until OTD which was 12dp5dt and a couple days later the line was fainter and I freaked out and ended up begging the hospital for hcg blood tests which they agreed to on a private basis. Had to go in 2 days later for 2nd test to see the levels rising. I didn’t test again after that but still felt like a neurotic mess.

Congratulations, definitely a positive xxx

[AJJ123 in reply to Purpledazzle27]

I used a different brand today, boots own brand and the lines about the same. It’s harder to see because it’s a pink line on a blue background.

I shall do a digital on test day to put myself out my misery xx

They look strong positive tests to me! Please don’t be so harsh on yourself the 2WW is tough! I wouldn’t test again until Thursday & trust this is your time 😘 I think by daily testing you are causing yourself more stress.

I had a wobble on Saturday & tested ( I had cramping on Wednesday luckily no bleeding ) & got 2 strong lines on both tests & had to ask hubby if he thought they were dark enough! 🙈 (I’m 6 weeks)so shouldn’t need to test really! Should trust my pregnancy symptoms which are strong 🙈

All the best with your pregnancy 💓💓💓 xoxo

[AJJ123 in reply to Hidden]

Thank you Jess.

I don’t really have any symptoms this time. Just bloating so I’m worried. I think because we’ve waited so long and been through a lot of pain your just waiting for something to go wrong.

I don’t know. Roll on Thursday (please, please be ok little embies) xx

[Hidden in reply to AJJ123]

It’s still very early days & most women ( those not trying) wouldn’t even realise they were pregnant at this point!

I didn’t have any symptoms until after my positive test ( which was a day after my missed period) I think symptoms don’t kick in much later- some women not till 6 weeks plus! That is what my pregnancy book says! My mother in law had no symptoms with any of her 3 pregnancies & produced 3 healthy sons! Every women’s pregnancy will be unique to her.

It’s very anxious time after a BFP & my best advice is to take it one day at a time. Today I’m pregnant tomorrow I might not be but today I am & I will enjoy being pregnant! That is how I am trying to get through it. 😊 xoxo

[AJJ123 in reply to Hidden]

Yes I will go with that motto I am pregnant today xx

[sanni12]

I would suggest you wait until OTD, like mine yours is 11th, just a few more days, hang in there 🙏🏻

This time round I’ve not been tempted to test early probably because I’ve been preoccupied with wedding celebrations!

All the best for Thursday❤️xx

[AJJ123 in reply to sanni12]

Very good idea - I will not test early again. Thats my Lou until test day now.

It’s horrible! If you get a positive your worried it will end or it’s inaccurate and if you get a negative your absolutely gutted.

It’s really not fun! Xx

[JessJ25]

Hi,

This is my third transfer i tested from 4days post transfer however i didnt have trigger shot this time as it was frozen transfer, mine was fainter than that until about 3 days before test day it started to get darker, i am now 13 weeks, i had a chemical pregnacy and it only showed up on one test i dont think you would get continuous positives with a chemical preg. Wait a day or two and do another maybe a digital with them there is not faint line it’s either pregnant or not but i think you are! Congrats and good luck xxxx

[AJJ123 in reply to JessJ25]

Thank you so much for sharing your reply really helped. 3 days till test day and I’ve tested every morning over 4 consecutive days.

I will do as you say wait until Thursday and use a digital. I’ve run out of tests now so I’d better leave it.

All the lines add to the drama and make u feel like s**t.

Done a boots test today looks like the ones from Saturday and Sunday maybe tiny bit more concentrated but not much in it.

I just feel blah - if that’s a description.

Xx

Hi, everything crossed for you Hun! Xx

[AJJ123 in reply to Hidden]

Thank you xx

[Babyjoshua]

Congratulation a line is a line but Sunday test is stronger than Saturday. Just keep happy because there is a lot of us in this group haven’t even seen a 2 line on a test so I believe that it did stick. Enjoy being a to be mother and I kno u would be an excellent mother. Think happy thoughts. Congrats once again 🤗🤗🤗🤗👪👪👪👪

[AJJ123 in reply to Babyjoshua]

Thank you that’s really lovely of you xxx

So I was a manic tester.... I bought a pack of 20 cheap tests online, tested out my trigger and then I got my first faint positive 8dp5dt and then I bought about 6 or 7 first response and I was testing morning noon and night with cheap and first response and I am 16w2d pregnant with our little boy! When you want something so bad it does send you a little mad!...... so i tested positive 6days before my otd! That is a big fat positive hun congratulations x

[AJJ123 in reply to Sjr1988]

Thank you my first positive was 6 days before test date too 🤞- all being well.

I’ve gone through so many emotions you wouldn’t believe ... well you might

3 days to go till test day! I’m not looking forward to it but at the same time it can’t come quick enough.

Xxx

[Sjr1988]

It's crazy and you'll feel the same crazy emotions until that baby is in your arms.... I'm still driving myself mad, just not quite to the extent of the 2ww.... good luck to a healthy and happy pregnancy x

[AJJ123 in reply to Sjr1988]

Thank you for your kind post. I’m glad I’m not alone and there are people here who can relate.

Xxx
