February Testing Thread **Fabulous February BFP's!**

[xphoenix]

I thought I had better post the pics! Top is today bottom yesterday. Oh and I did an FRER which was 100% negative I have had 2 glasses of orange juice and a cup of tea though and only held for 3 hours so thinking I’ve just been a bit silly x

The top one is Def clearer! How exciting, hopefully you get an even stronger next time. X

When I saw the first test, I too was a little dubious, BUT - it has got darker and has progressed, so I genuinely think it's your
Everything but my legs crossed for you

@RainbowMama Yeah I won’t believe it until I get proper lines! I’m not saving the tests either I’m taking a pic at 5 mins and then straight in the bin so I can’t obsess over dried tests. I’ll watch for progression on these before using another FRER what DPO were you when yours was negative? X

I don’t know if to leave it a couple of days now or just keep doing the one steps until I’m feeling a bit more confident about the lines x

I wish I'd have chucked them instead of sticking them on a piece of paper to obsess.

What DPO was I when the FRER was negative, but the IC's positive? 11 & 12DPO.

I'm giving it to Friday to let the levels build up a bit rather than make me question it.
That's good you are feeling more confident now, how many dpo are you? X

Hey hun, @xphoenix no I’m not feeling very confident about the lines I am anywhere from 6-8 DPO (clear blue advanced gave peak last Tuesday cheap strips in line with 6DPO) so I’m really not thinking these one steps are positive right now I so wish they were but it’s not likely! Not even sure it’s possible at 6 definitely just going to continue testing with one steps every morning until it’s either very obvious that it’s positive or I get my AF.

I don’t know if this will sound weird but I just have this feeling x

 

[RainbowMama]

Sounds like a good plan @Mrsbridge17 Hope it is your

Didn't you have loads of highs before your peak? Maybe the clearblue (like mine) only picked the surge up at the last minute and you did ovulate a day or 2 earlier.

 

[RainbowMama]

My blood results are back.

Ok, So rather confusing.
My HCG is 43 (or was yesterday morning), and progesterone is 26.1 nmol/ml. Converted into ng/ml, that's 10.5ng/ml. Under 10 is considered low progesterone. Ideal ranges are 12-20 during pregnancy, so my progesterone IS low. I am pregnant.

I have a telephone appointment with the doctor at 10am tomorrow. I'm hoping to have a repeat blood test tomorrow (to see if it is doubling) and possibly start progesterone supplements to hopefully, save the pregnancy and our baby.

Yes quite a few! I’ve also noticed that my cervix is high/medium & soft and I think closed as it’s a like a line not a O in the middle. I’ve read this is a good sign so we will see x

43 HCG is good isn’t it?! At least the doctors are working with you I hope you get some supplements x

 

[Mrsbridge17]

Can someone please explain to me why I thought ordering this was a good idea?!

 

[RainbowMama]

Okay, so I think I calculated it wrong. It’s actually below 10.

well it sounds like you might be getting some answers here, hopefully they get you on prosterone then and give you a repeat hcg test

I don’t understand how it’s calculated but going off that I’d imagine they’ll sort progesterone out straight away for you especially if they are aware of all your history x

Fingers crossed!

@RainbowMama ive had a little look into this earlier between weeks 6-8 they consider under 10 low so you’ll probably be alright! Thought id share as was worried for you

I hope you are right

Clearblue has progressed.
1st: 11DPO
2nd: 15DPO
3rd: 17DPO
4th: 18DPO

Progression is slow, but it's progression. It's as if the tests are fluctuating. Hoping to have another beta tomorrow, the doctor is ringing at 10am.
