It’s not been 24hrs yet since my last one but I return to work today and was hoping to have a spring in my step. In fact, my anxiety has just hit the roof.
The line is fainter today 😢. I’m hoping it’s nothing to worry about and I’m going to try and stay calm. But what a day to go back work. I feel sick with worry x
It’s easy for us to say but I am in the same boat at the minute and worry is the absolute worst thing we can do! Keep busy, stop stressing and enjoy you’re moment. I’ve wobbled all week and when I reflected last night I’ve told myself I really do need to accept what will be. sending you all the luck and love - keep telling yourself you are pregnant and you are going to be an amazing mummy!! Xxxx
You’re at the same point as me aren’t you? I saw your post yesterday.
I feel so sick. I had some cramps when I coughed last night and when I sneezed this morning. 🙈 it’s the worst feeling ever but at the same time the best- thank you for your reply x
Yes I am! Take care! Xxxxx
Hi PurpleLove,
Firstly, it's understandable you're feeling super anxious. If it's even the tiniest bit of comfort try to remember there aren't many IVF warriors who don't go from elation about pregnancy to panic about the pregnancy so how you're feeling is explainable. It's no wonder with what you've gone through.
There are so many reasons your test line could look a tiny bit lighter this morning & I think it sometimes helps to run them through to challenge anxious thoughts. The dilution of your urine changes so the level of hcg hormone in your urine changes, it's possible this test absorbed less urine than yesterday's, every test will just be slightly different. Hopefully work will be a really good distraction today. Feel better soon 🧡 x
Thank you hun sending lots of love. X
When you took the first response test the one that is darker do you know roughly what time you took it? Basically take the test the same time as you did with the darker one. Because sometimes it depends on what time you take them. Also to get a clearer picture get the clear blue digital with the weeks indicator those helped my anxiety loads...xx
Yesterday it was my second wee about 9am.
Today was my first wee at 5 am.
I have digital ones being delivered today- I think I need to do one of those x
Oh love it’s like self torture isn’t it. So sorry for you gong through this and going back to work. It may distract the mind even for a short fraction of a second each time. Which is something to be grateful for! Ivf is so overwhelming and all consuming.
Try to test and the same time each day is the biggest advice, use the same brand of test. CB gave me a virtual lightest line whilst FR and then cheapies gave me a real strong positive.
Ohhhh good luck darling I know it’s so hard but please try and not be too stressed. Xx
I am glad be at work- it’s worked wonders.
I will be testing at the same time now I’m at work- first wee of the day x
Good luck Hun xx
Oh its such a worry! That is the only problem testing early, so many ups and downs. I would say in my experience the lines dry darker than they do on the day so hopefully today's line will get darker in a few hours to be dark or as dark as yesterday. If you look at your day 9 photo of yesterday the line was much lighter than it is on your day 10 pic. I sound like an idiot but Ive even taken mine to work so I could see them darken as time goes by! Good luck.xx
That’s a good point hun. I was tempted take them work myself but my husband said he will send me a pic when he gets in.
I did wonder if it dries darker. I’ve had no symptoms of pain or bleeding today. Thank you for your reassurance x
Well what can I say, Im a weirdo! Ha ha ha They defo do dry darker. I dont want to get your hopes up but you're not out yet!!xx
I agree with Cinderella- they definitely dry darker & todays is still a good strong line! Very best of luck! Xx
You’re not- I think we are all the same on here. Our crazy thoughts and things we do is because how much it means x
Let us know how things look later on.xx
I aren’t testing now until Wednesday. It’s done me no good going to work worrying this morning.
(I will see if I cave in 🙈) x
Try to hang off & not do one tomorrow if you can. Does the test look darker now its dried?xxx
It does it’s like more thinner. I will post the pic now x
I have a feeling you will be fine!!! Line is still there x
I really hope that you’re right 🤞🏽🙏🏼🌈🐣🌼
All looks good! I can understand how anxious you must be with how rough this journey is to even get to this stage, but it's definitely minimal difference to the previous day and is probably down to a more diluted wee. Or potentially that particular test is not as good quality as the other one. Oh I can see you've posted another test picture! Let me have a look! xx
Looks fantastic!!! Lovely dark lines!!! Yayyyyyyyyyyy. It's impossible to really compare lines and it causes awful anxiety. I have previously done them a few hours apart and seen huge differences because of diluted wee. So just relax and enjoy. You have a strong line... So just think about that xxxx
