Is my heart going to break?

londongirl · Apr 3rd, 2012, 03:01 AM

Hi girls

I'm 5+2 (my ticker is off by a few days). I got my BFP at 11 dpo and my lines got stronger til I stopped testing at 15 dpo. My blood test at 4+1 was 154 HCG, which is good.

The only symptoms I really had was heavy sore BBs and tiredness.

However, yesterday and today my BBs have suddenly become fine again. They are a TINY bit more tender than usual, but not NEARLY as bad as before. How can they just suddenly get better again?

Aside from still being really tired, I just don't feel pregnant.

Yesterday, I *stupidly* did another HPT (FRER) and the test line is very dark. But it is only a BIT darker than the control line, and I have read that by 5+1 it should be WAY darker.

I'm starting to think I'm out now. I've had NO cramps or spotting whatsoever. I simply feel non-pregnant!

Realistically, do you think this may be bad news?

Thanks xoxox

I wouldnt worry unless you are bleeding or doubled over in pain. Symptoms come and go particularly in the beginning. I wouldnt recommend testing continually either as you will go crazy analysing the results. At 5 plus 2 I didnt even know I was preggers.x

Thank you. That's really sensible advice. I think with the advances in medicine and technology, although it's a wonderful thing, it can also be a curse. It means I try to analyse things I don't REALLY fully understand and read too much into things. Thank you ...

Hands off the tests hunny!! They'll drive you crazy!! I was JUST like you, boobs went normal again, no aching soreness - just a bit tender when I poked them lol!!
By 6 weeks I was sick +++ and wondering why I ever stressed about a lack of symptoms lol xx

Be thankful - until the symptoms hit!!! I was around 10weeks maybe a little more when i even found out i was expecting my DS, I was on the pill and had no reason to suspect but also had NO symptoms at all. Was also the same with DD, absolutely no symptoms at all. This time has been a little different though and I have felt sick and had cramps but thats it. Count the no symptoms as a blessing, they may start tomorrow ans you'll regret not making the most of it!!!

Wishing you and H&H pregnancy

Hehe I was the same at your stage. My boobs still deflate daily and build up by evening. Some days they stay down, go soft and aren't sore at all (even with all the poking and prodding). Behold! The next day they're back in all their glory

As for the tests, what another woman found will not apply to you. Your tests are still dark and that's all that counts. Perhaps that's all the dye left in that test? You saturated it with how much hormone you have!! My tests were all different, some were SOOO much darker than the control, some were the same - all with the same pee!!
Take a digital - enjoy the glory of 2-3 or 3+ weeks and then step away from the tests.

Congrats on your pregnancy. I wish you all the luck in the world

my tender boobs disapeared weeks ago however i'm still throwing up and very much pregnant other than that. Don't worry about it you'll just stress yourself out xx

Oh London girl....I know exactly how you feel!! You replied to my thread yesterday when I was fretting about my tests. I think if you still have a good strong line thats a good thing?? Do you know how many dpo you are? I'm about to post the photo of my today 16dpo test on my thread for reassurance, mine is nowhere near darker than the control line yet either.

My symptoms come and go, too. The only thing that keeps me sane is knowing that there hasn't been any bleeding or spotting. I suppose as long as you don't have that, I wouldn't worry.

Stop taking pee tests! You know you're pregnant and if you keep takin' em it'll drive you nuts!
