    What to do when tests are lightening?

    I got my BFP 11DPO and confirmed with digital 12DPO. Lines progressed darker at 14DPO. I went ahead and scheduled a confirmation of pregnancy test when I’d be 6w+0 which includes an ultrasound. My only symptoms have been sore breasts, acne and diarrhea (which seems like what I get before AF)...

    Bleeding and cramping at 5 w 4 days

    I had light flow of red blood, more than spotting but not like, filling up a pad an hour type heavy bleeding. Really painful cramping that even 2 extra strength Tylenol barely touched. That lasted 4 hours. Then super light spotting yesterday and cramping but not as bad and today it’s just a...

    Small Gestational Sac

    Hello Everybody! It’s been a bit of an anxiety inducing pregnancy so far and I’m only 9w1d. 34 years old and this is my first pregnancy. On what was supposed to be my 8w2d ultrasound, they changed my estimated due date to 12/4/2024 instead of 11/25, officially making me 7 weeks pregnant at...

    Really having a hard time 4w2d

    I really am struggling so bad I called out of work today. So I used inito to help time my iui this cycle and I got a bfp on 8dpo. I continued to test with inito which is NOT recommended and god it’s messed me up. My “LH” (presumably HCG) dropped today (12dpo) on it and boy has it sent me into a...

    PP Update! 12/7/14-1/30/15 (Also a PSA on Potty time)

    Hello ladies! I've been meaning to give an update for a while now. Let's see, where to begin. I forgot to mention in my Birth Story post that I ended up getting 2 small tears that needed stitches. One happened to be near my urethra. I'm not sure if this was a factor in what happened almost a...

    Coworker refuses to use sick leave, even though I’m 5 weeks pregnant

    My fiancée (32NB) and myself (30F) just found out we’re roughly 5 weeks pregnant this past weekend. This will be our first pregnancy/baby and we’re so excited to see where this journey takes us. But I’m struggling to get my hopes up, especially since I work with an asshole. My coworker (50F)...

    Dropping Progesterone- how worried should I be?

    I have been tracking my blood HCG and progesterone levels since for the last week or so. Things are looking OK (my HCG betas started low), but today my progesterone dropped, and it freaked me out. I have left a message for my clinic but they aren’t open until tomorrow. They always seem way too...

    Reassurance, please! Test progression question

    As I cannot post pics here, here is a post I just made with picture references! Prefacing this by saying I’m a very anxious person in general and experienced a CP two months ago hence the worry and seeking reassurance 🙃 On 11DPO I got the faintest of faint positives on a FRER. In fact it took...

    Been booked for a scan next week at 6+5, based on my LMP. I’m sure I will only be 5+3 though. Is it a waste of time?

    My LMP was 8th Jan. This makes me currently 5+5. I have long, irregular cycles, but I always get distinct, sore ovulation pain exactly 2 weeks before my period comes. I had that ovulation pain 18 days ago and if I calculate my pregnancy based on ovulation date and not LMP it puts me at 4+3...

    Low HCG 17 dpo - 707 IU/L

    The nurse called and told me my hcg is low, it’s only 707 IU/L and she said it should be over 1000 at 4 weeks. Really really nervous. Anyone been though this?

    Anti-E or anti-e titre <1

    TDaP vaccination and troubles

    I honestly don't understand what is so hard about waiting minutes at a health clinic to get a free vaccination in order to protect your future grand baby, great grand baby and niece/nephew from possible diseases. The responses I have gotten so far: "Pretty sure I have mine." - Okay, fine. Can...

    Flu or common colds?

    9 weeks 2 days. I feel feverish but my highest temp is 37.3 c or 99 f. I have stuffy nose and dry cough. No body aches just head ache. I am nott also feeling extremely cold. Not taking anything. Just water and fruits. Is this a cold or flu? I’m very scared right now.
