hi,

I'm currently 8DPT and got a faint positive this morning however this isn't the first time I have had this as i have had 3 chemicals pregnancies after losing my beautiful boy at 24 weeks ๐ŸŒˆ so I'm definitely not getting my hopes up. The first chemicals were from natural cycles and this one is from my first frozen transfer with a pgta tested embryo .. should I expect this to be darker at 8dpt? Xx

Hi lovely,

I'm so sorry that you lost your boy at 24 weeks - how utterly heartbreaking.

To be honest that looks ok for 8dp 5dt on those tests. They don't get massively strong anyway - I'll see if I can post my last line progression which looked similar xx

Hi,

thanks for your reply and yes still very much on that emotional rollercoaster after losing him โค๏ธ๐ŸŒˆ that would be great if you do find them as I've no idea how it should look ๐Ÿ˜ฃ I've ordered some frer tests so maybe I will use these instead xx

These were the 2 non early response I did at 10 days and I think yours is as dark at 8 days. My chemical was a lot lot lighter. Cautious congratulations!!!! Got everything crossed for you ๐Ÿ€

I agree it looks good for 8dp! I didn't test early (I've also had chemicals and have a irrational fear of pregnancy tests ๐Ÿคฃ) but I found the strip tests never really got very dark for me anyway even when 5 or 6 weeks pregnant.

Good luck and cautious congratulations ๐ŸŽ‰

looking good for 8 days but (as Iโ€™m sure you know) itโ€™s about the progression really over the next 48 hours. Got my fingers and toes crossed for you! Xx

That looks like a good line for 8dpt. I really hope this little one sticks around for you. Sending strength and hoping for good news in the coming days. xx

Iโ€™m a day behind you, 8dp5dt today.. did my first test yesterday evening and got a super faint line on an HCG strip. Did a clearblue which came back quite quickly positive this morning but the strips are still super faint.

Have you tested again today?! Hoping itโ€™s a sticky one for you! ๐Ÿ’ซ

Ooh thatโ€™s definitely darker! ๐Ÿ˜ I caved and did a digital one this morning that said โ€œ1-2 weeksโ€ โ€ฆ OTD on Saturday, so not too much longer to wait. Whenโ€™s yours? Everything crossed for you ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ๐Ÿ’ซ

Oh wow! Look at those beautiful dark lines! Everything crossed for you - keep me posted! We must be similar dates? I wish I didnt have to wait until 24th for my scan! xx

Victoria357โ€ข in reply toHopefulsibling2

Same to you โค๏ธ๐ŸŒˆ could you not ask the gp for one earlier? It's because I'm under the early miscarriage clinic and also because I lost my baby at 24 weeks so have always been under their care, I'm sure if you ask and say your worried they might see you? Xx
