Hi everyone, mid 20s couple here,

Been trying for close to a year now, and this is the first time that she's even been late. She's about 10 days, took the digital test that said she was 1-2 weeks; a couple of strip tests revealed a dark line. She said she had symptoms (breast soreness, nausea etc).

Yesterday however she said she felt better and a strip test came back with the line completely gone. She also said she feels better and is obviously worried. Are we back to square one now? We are both totally new to this. Thanks for the help.

What was the first day of her last period? E.g. How many weeks pg is she? Symptoms can come and go and the further along in pg you are the fainter the lines will eventually start to get (Google hook effect). Obviously if you are worried get to your doctor etc. There is a chance of course of her having lost the baby I'm afraid, if you've been trying a year it would be time to go to docs anyway X

Hiya, thanks for the reply,

The first day of her last period would have been 30ish days before being these 10 days late.

Yes we have been to a doctor about this, she's had a few tests done to suggest she's ok, he's slightly below average in terms of sperm count motility etc, but has been on mess that seem to have helped.

She plans on calling the doc today.

Hey all,

After a week or so of straight positive tests, we went to doctor and she did another test a couple days ago indicating she was pregnant. However this morning she had a wicked headache and later on she had a small bit of blood on undies. Made appointment for tomorrow but am very fearful. No craps or anything to go with the blood, which she didn't even feel.

First date of last period was August 11 and ovulated around August 26. Very worried.
