Help PLEASE!!

[bexxc]

i don't know! i hate that this is so difficult for you!!!!

 

[jcombs35]

Me too! Could you see the line at all? Does it mean anything that the longer the test sits, it gets darker? It's almost as dark as the control now.

 

[bexxc]

i can definitely see it. how long did the test sit before it got darker?

 

[jcombs35]

It was about 12 minutes before the faint line showed up. (The directions on these tests says it can be read between 5-15 minutes.) Now it's been about an hour, getting ready to upload pic.
I'm glad you could see it though...

 

[jcombs35]

Here is the darker one

[bexxc]

oh that is much darker now!

 

[jcombs35]

Should I be hopeful about that? I don't know what to think of it. And I know most people will say I shouldn't look at it since it's past the time limit...

 

[jcombs35]

Sorry I sound so desperate. I feel like an idiot.

 

[bexxc]

don't feel like an idiot! anyone would be anxious in your situation! i've never used those tests before, but i do know that some tests seem to take longer to "develop" than others. i know my wondfos always awhile to show their full darkness, so maybe that's the case with those.

 

[jcombs35]

I think it is. Most of them never even show up faint until right at 15 minutes. I've had 18 positives so far, so I'm pretty sure I am, and how could I have m/c if I haven't bled? I was getting positives well after my first spotting stopped. Wish these next 4 days would hurry up!!!!

 

[bexxc]

i know all this waiting must be just miserable! wish i could speed it up for you!

 

[jcombs35]

Thanks for being here for me. It helps to have someone to talk to. I posted my situation in a couple of other threads, but either no one is on, or they just assume I've had a m/c. I'm not convinced, because I've not bled and I still have symptoms, so if I did m/c, there would still be hcg. (I'm assuming all this.) Now that I've calmed down a bit, I'm pretty sure that water screwed the test up.

Now I'm super mad at myself for wasting my last digi! Hopefully my shipment from Canada gets here soon!

 

[bexxc]

maybe it will be there tomorrow.

i know there's a girl on here that had a blighted ovum and then an mmc and both times she didn't bleed and she tested positive for 5 weeks after she found out...but i don't think that's terribly common.

 

[jcombs35]

Oh how comforting!! I'm just going to keep cautiously assuming I am and see if I get AF. That's all I know to do. It's only a little under 4 days. But I will prob just wait til Monday to make sure. If it hasn't come by then, I can go back in and if their test is still neg, I can ask for another blood test.

 

[bexxc]

again, i don't think it's very common. and it's really promising that you're feeling lots of symptoms!

 

[jcombs35]

I think so too. And I"m calm again. That's something I felt with all my other pregnancies, except for the first one that was a m/c. I felt very peaceful and accepting of the fact that I was. And that's how I feel now. I really really hope that digi comes in the mail tomorrow! She sent it out Saturday, so it probably won't be, but hey, I've been crazy this whole last 2 months, what's to stop me now? lol

 

[bexxc]

after about 8 months of ttc, i went crazy and never turned back. i don't think there's much hope for me!

fx'd that the new digi shows tomorrow!!!

 

[jcombs35]

hahahaha. I've been trying for 6 months, and I was perfectly fine til I skipped AF in June, but I've been crazy ever since!

 

[bexxc]

i think mine all began when they started me on clomid. after that, all i could see were iui and ivf looming and i started to freak.

by the way, it's really good that you're feeling calm about this. i think intuition is very powerful and that's a really good sign.

 

[jcombs35]

I think so too. I need to stop letting flukes make me freak out! I've never been on clomid, or had any fertility treatments. I guess it never occurred to me that I might need help or have issues. But it always seems to take 2-3 years for me to get pregnant, so obviously something is going on, and that could very well be due to me ovulating at a weird time.

My sister had ivf and had to take injections daily, but she now has two healthy teenage daughters!
