Hey ladies

After getting BFP’s from 8-12dpt the lines got stronger and darker towards OTD

Ive got absolutely no symptoms other than feeling so tired.

Today I tested again just to satisfy my mind and the line took its time to come up and it’s so faint (faintest I’ve seen since testing) it’s not negative but almost

I’m not sure what to think now...

could it be because I’ve tested in the afternoon and not FMU?

But considering I got my first BFP 8 days ago I would have thought there was enough HCG In my body by now to be able to test at anytime of the day.

Should I bother to contact the clinic... or just wait another 3.5 weeks 😩😢 after speaking to them on Monday my viability scan was booked for 10/7 which seems like years away. This waiting and not knowing is driving me insane and I’ve just made my anxiety worse by testing again.

Has this happened to anyone before?

Hi love, it could definitely be that your wee was quite diluted, or even that the test was a bit of a dodgy one- try not to panic. If I were you I would get a reliable test to do with FMU tomorrow morning and see what happens. If you still get a very faint result perhaps give the clinic a call but it may well be fine. Will have my fingers crossed for you x

💡I’m sitting here thinking the same thing... maybe a dodgy test. all previous tests I purchased from boots... but this particular one (first response) I brought off eBay..🤔 I’m so glad it came late else I would of used this on my OTD

Thnx for your advice, you’ve immediately made me feel a lot better about this stupid test. x

Extreme tiredness is a classic early pregnancy sign so you do have a symptom. Can't really advise about what's going on with the tests, but it's probably worth giving the clinic a quick ring as they will be able to explain whether you need to be concerned or not. I'm keeping my fingers crossed everything's developing nicely in there for you xxx

Hi, sorry to hear you're struggling, trust me hun, I've just been through it, I took 12 hpt and towards to last one's they were getting faint. I'm currently almost 9weeks and had my first scan on Wednesday and everything is fine, I've had no symptoms since my BFP and still don't have any. So try not to worry. I know it's easier said than done though. Stay positive. Bearing in mind hgc levels reach their peak between 8 and 11 weeks and then drops. You may have already reached you're peak level. Xx

Oh i love to read positive outcomes as i seem to keep coming across so many sad stories which makes me so nervous.

Sending you lots of love and wishing you a healthy pregnancy. Congratulations BTW X

[Leanne1402 in reply to mushy19]

Yeah it's hard when there are so many sad outcomes. Makes you doubt yourself. I was convinced I had lost mine because I read way too much into things. So stay positive and good luck and thank you. X

Retest with first urine. Have you had

Hcg blood tests ?

[mushy19 in reply to Elynn]

I retested the following morning and was much happier with the result, thnx for your advise.

No my clinic hasn't offered HCG blood test.. i wish they did, I was just booked for a viability scan for exactly 4 weeks pass OTD. One week has gone so only 3 more longgggg weeks to go.. ; (

[Elynn in reply to mushy19]

Good to hear em test better. I really dont understand why bhcg isnt standard. Can u ask your GP ?
