Please help, + ic but - superdrug and frer

[roxannew]

Advice please! I came off bfc 4 weeks ago so don't really know when af due but I did have ewcm Friday 30th august and Monday 2nd September so we dtd around then. I had a faint positive on an ic (10miu) on Friday, then a pretty obvious bfp Sunday morning. All good, except Superdrug digi and frer have both been negative?
I know I am pregnant, I feel exactly like I always do but I'm worried about a chemical I guess. Although guess that's unlikely as I would have started bleeding by now and tests would have got fainter rather than darker? But I'm not excited, I did have a mmc last year so that could be a factor too. I'm just scared of believing it incase it goes wrong again. I feel confused. Can anyone offer any words of wisdom please?

I think most IC's test for 10mlu or so, that may be why you are only getting BFP's on those first. wait a few more days and test again. Good luck!

Thank you, that is what I've been thinking. But I'm having a down day I guess, then I feel guilty because we've only been trying a few weeks so what right have I got to feel sad?! I will pop and get some more tests tonight and maybe down one in the morning as it would then have been 48 hours since last one. I just need an obvious line on a proper test I think, fingers crossed!

Good luck with your test tomorrow. Could just be your hcg was not quite high enough for the digi or the frer. Fingers crossed you get a lovely second line in the morning

 

[roxannew]

Thanks, I'm really, really hoping that is the case. I'm scared to test!

It's ok to feel sad. We all go through it. It's a natural thing for a woman to want a baby.You're still in the race until AF shows. I hope this is your BFP! Lots of baby dust

IC are much more sensitive than frer tests, good luck for re testing xx

Bfn on Tesco test this morning. I also got a clear bfp Monday morning using an ic, I just don't know what to think. I have all the preg symptoms, fatigue, sore boobs, aching arms (always my first symptom) and waves of nausea throughout the day. But I'm now thinking it was a chemical or I'm going to mc

I only got bfp's on IC until I was almost 6 weeks. Could be you're earlier along than you think which is why the digital and frer aren't showing up yet. Hang I'm there do you have a pic of your IC u can post? Xx

 

[roxannew]

Thanks, I'm hoping that is the case for me! I do have pics, not great as just taken them now so colour not as obvious but definitely the same colour as control line and came up within 30 secs. Will try and upload it.

 

[roxannew]

I can't get my pic from my phone to laptop for some reason, but my tests are the same as 14 and 15 on here. This is not my photo, just to clarify.

 

[KimberleyCJZ]

Wow, great progression! Congratulations!! Xxx

 

[roxannew]

This is the best I can get of mine, taken with the webcam!! Darker in real life.

Last one! I can't get them very clear, if I crop them they blur too much. But you can see the line for sure on the bottom one. That was Mondays, top was sunday. Those other tests aren't mine, just the closest I could find.

Defo BFP!

 

[roxannew]

Thanks but why are all the others negative? I feel so confused, would have thought another test would show positive by now. I do feel pregnant though, definitely.

 

[roxannew]

Tested with a 15miu strip this morning and got another negative. Must have been a chemical

 

[roxannew]

Another bfn on a 15miu strip today. Last bfp was Monday, no bleeding or pain yet. Will phone the docs on Monday as I have no idea what is going on.

 

[roxannew]

Still no ideas. No bleeding yet and can't get in at doctors until next Monday and even then it's an afternoon appointment so they won't do a blood test. I think I've accepted it was probably an early mc, but I just want to bleed now. AF is now 5-7 days late. Still have aching arms and more tired though, but that's probably the stress of all this tbh.
