Comparing last time to this time

[Annie050408]

I am constantly looking to ensure that this pregnancy is different to the last one and therefore hopefully a successful one. I can't help it although it's driving me a little crazy!

I know I have more symptoms this time but I still can't get too attached in case it all goes wring again.

I had a spare preg test and although I promised myself I wouldn't use it I couldn't help doing it so that I could compare the line with the one I got last time at the same stage in the pregnancy.

I posted a thread in Tri 1 last time explaining that I was concerned because the line was not as dark as I'd have expected for 1 week after getting my initial BFP.

The second pic is of the test I did today which I think is darker and therefore I hope that means the hormone is increasing at a better rate.

The sooner my early scan date comes around the better!

Hey hunni...I know exactly how you feel. Ive had two mcs. One was in July 09 at 10 and half wks, the other was in march this year at 7 weeks..I literally fell pregnant about 10-14 days after my second miscarriage so didnt have a period between...

All I can say, is that I am now 24 wks tomorrow, and although the pain and worry is still there...it does get easier I promise...

Once you've had the first scan etc things will deffo ease up but my advice is try not over analyse everything as things will be different anyway as Its a new pregnancy so try not to worry about every little thing (easier said than done I know)

Take it easy xx

Hi Annie, I was going to do another test, but have stopped my self. Im not sure weather to do one tomorrow before my scan just so i know i am still preg! Its an awful situation to be in and i think unless you have had a mc you have no idea how were feeling.

Im so nervous about my scan, if its all over i dont know what i will do xx

I wouldnt worry about the colour of the line, the second test looks darker but if its a different brand then may have different amount of dye in it.

Have you maybe tried a CBD so you can see the amount of weeks go up on the indicator?

It is really hard not to compare. I know exactly how you are feeling. xx
