Hi so I posted my results of OTD and it was a BFP I was elated but now starting to worry. Had a miscarriage at 12 weeks with my only ever positive and just scared it will happen again.
Also as my clinic doesn’t do beta I have to wait until the 30th December for a scan.
Should I keep doing hpts each week until then?
Any advice would help xx
I’m In the same boat and spent the last weekend in an absolute blind panic - our 7w scan is on the 23/12 and I’m 5w3d today. Spoke to my FS and he’s basically said to stop testing as it’s just making me more anxious and sit it out. He was pretty blunt but it helped me - in his words, you’re doing everything you can and the fact you got this far is great, there’s a 20% chance something could go wrong between now and the scan, if it does go wrong there’s nothing anyone can do about it and it couldn’t have been prevented. For some reason it was a circuit breaker and has made me feel a bit better (although I am of course still worried).
I would 100 % not do testing. The comparing the colour of the line will drive you mad, it killed me off my first round with a chemical. I paid for a blood test to ease my mind with my frostie. There are private places that do them to. Either way like noodle said, we have no control of what happens now so just try to keep a healthy mind and know that your baby is getting nice and comfy xxx
I wouldn’t. I’m not trying to scare you but if you were to have a missed miscarriage you would still get positive tests. Hang in there. Take it day by day. Distraction is key. Good luck xx
Don't keep testing. If you find out just before Christmas that something has happened you are going to find Christmas very very hard to get through. It's awful when you've had a miscarriage before but given there is nothing you can do about it either way you will just wind yourself up more. Sorry if this sound pessimistic but the possibility of being on edge over Christmas might be better than the possibility of being heartbroken (but of course I hope it will work out differently this time for you). Best of luck x
Sorry I don't have any advice but just to say I'm going through the same thing and totally understand your worry. I'm around 6 weeks and have a scan on 23rd December, there is no reason to believe anything will go wrong but I'm worrying about it obsessively. It's awful! I thought when I got my BFP I'd be so happy and I was, but in another way it's just the start of more worry. Just try to remember things are much more likely to be fine than not, I hope everything goes well for you xx
