I am TCC and on Monday, 2 days late for mc I did a test and it came out very pale but postive, YEY! I was soooooooo happy. 😀
Tuesday I did another test to try and get a darker line, but negative.
Wednesday 4.30 am I got my period. I was inconsolable.:(
I bled all day Wednesday and up until Thursday night, now nothing. I have retested with a test from simply fertility.com and negative.
I am still obsessing and grasping at straws that I still could be pg, any ideas?
RE: TCC and obsessed!
Reading thisd brought back memories of years gone by when I was trying desperatelyto have a baby so as an expectant Mum with a fab 4 year old I can sympathise.
I wouldnt accept pregnancy test results etc and threw myself into a phantom pregnancy I was so desperate, it was hard, very hard and I would not wish it on anyone so please.... relax, accept and don't torcher yourself. I think when we desire something strongly we also push it away. I know so many people who have struggled once applying the pressure of 'trying' for a baby.
Best wishes Sam x

Thank you, it is nice to know I am not alone in this. I logically know that I am not pregnant anymore but part of me is still hanging onto the hope that I am. It is amazing how hormones affect our bodies.
I have 2 children already and fell pregnant pretty much immediately, so this is hard for me as I don't possess any patience 😉
RE: TCC and obsessed!
It sounds like what happened was that you had a chemical pregnancy. This mean that the egg was fertilised so you got a feint pregnancy test, but that it didn't implant, so you had a normal period. These are very very common, and you would only know you were pregnant at all if you had tested. Therefore I think it's more sensible to oly test when you are a few days late.
Of course I can't be sure that this is definitely what happened, but it's what it sounds like.I hoep you're feeling better about it now, and on to your next month of ttc. Good luck!
