Line progression

Hi! I had a missed miscarriage in November so I’m extremely nervous. I’m 4 weeks today (3/3) and I feel like my lines aren’t progressing enough the last few days? What do you guys think?

I think they look like they are progressing! Congratulations! 🎉

Hi there, this is my first time pregnant & only took three the day I found out. I wasn’t aware I should’ve taken more. What’s the benefit or point of it? Is this something I should be doing?

great name Haha, but you definitely don't have to. I did because I was so early and wanted to take it every day to make sure I wasn't seeing things. People also like to see that it's getting progressively darker, showing an increase of HCG.

it’s not something you need to be doing! I have had a miscarriage in the past so my anxiety is HIGH. A lot of people take tests for the first few weeks to make sure the lines are progressing and not going away (miscarriage sign). They should get darker every day and double every 2 days due to your HEG levels rising BUT they do top off around week 7 and will fall.

I didn’t know that! I totally understand, I am so anxious about that as well just because I have a friend who has had 9 miscarriages & ended up adopting. I think just knowing how common they are, it definitely makes me nervous!

lol & I wasn’t aware of this! Good to know, as I go take another one now lol

I didn’t realize how common they were until I had one! It’s crazy to think that 1 in 4 women experience it. Fingers crossed for healthy babies!!!!!

that’s terrifying to think of! But 🤞🏻 I believe I’m only 5 weeks today, I don’t go to the dr until the 31st

the wait is the worst part 😭

I believe I am 4 weeks and 3 days too! My last period was 2/1 and I took my first test this past Wednesday :) I’m assuming due date is November 8th! We’re due date buddies

ooh so exciting! My last period was actually 27th Jan but I ovulated super late on the 13th of Feb!

that happened with my daughter. I haven’t been to doctor yet, my appointment is far out but I’m going to hospital in a few days just to get checked out but at 4 weeks I’m not sure if they can see anything so I am waiting for a week or two to get an exact date :) but im super excited!

aww me too! I’ve booked a private scan for the 25th March! It’s going to be a painful wait 😂

1 test saying positive, 2 negative. Testing 7 days after a 5 day embryo transfer

I'm 7dp5dt from a frozen embryo transfer. This morning I did 3 pregnancy tests, one clear blue digital early detection and 2 line tests, also early detection. On the line tests there were no lines showing at all, but the digital test said "pregnant". What would you take from this?!

Line eyes or faint positive?

Been trying to conceive my second child since January 2024. I’m due on my period tomorrow and just did a test after me and my husband decided to take a break from ttc. I’m convinced I can see a line but I’m aware it might a false positive. Also I panicked and immediately retested with different urine after forcing out a second wee 🙈 and that was negative so now very confused - please help

How many days past ovulation did you test?

I am day 9 today and still negative 😭 was really hoping for a Jan 27 baby

Tips for solo parenting 2 children without support?

Baby girl is now 1 year old. I really want another baby but my partner works away weeks at a time and I have no local support. I guess I'm looking for any practical support from other who solo parent 2 young children. How do you manage it?? Especially when sleep deprived and managing night times. Thank you

Evap?

I’m 11dpo and been getting stark negatives. I always check back at them and nothing. Did a test this evening and saw nothing initially but noticed a very very faint shaddow later on. I put this down to evap and I know you’re not meant to look after the set time. Did another test and same thing again. Now I know evaps are a thing and this is why you have to stick to the time but I’ve done so many tests over the months and if I’ve ever gone back to them there’s been nothing. It’s just had me questioning. I did also think by 11dpo it would be a clear line (for me anyway). I’ve had the rare evap last year but never 2 in a row?!? Am I going crazy?!

Failed FET - Advise

Hi Ladies

Our first FET failed. It was a Day 6 balstocyst, Euploid, 5AB. Lining was great and Everything was good on the book but the Beta HCG test result was negative today.
I am very disappointed because I do not know why this didnt work and it kills me.

However I need your advise preparing for the next one. I have my last remaining frozen embryo - Euploid and 4BB. Your advise really matters to me now.

1. Did anyone have success with a 4BB embryo ?
2. Anything to do differently this time for it to work ?
3. Should I discuss any tests like ERA ?
