Hi, I'd love some advice. I hope you guys can help me.
My boyfriend and I have been trying to conceive for a while now. I haven't taken the pill for a year and have been taking folic acid for 2 months.
I have a 35-day cycle and my last period was from April 5th (very, very light) to April 11th/12th. I took my first pregnancy test today and I think I found a peak, but since it's the first test I've done, I'd like to hear your advice.

I hope someone can help me.

    It's not positive yet. It really needs to be dark. But I have no experience with these tests myself.

    No, this isn't a peak yet... on April 16th, you'll see a clear peak... the line should be as dark or darker than the control line. I'd keep testing for a bit

    Hi everyone,

    I have a question and I hope you can help me or give me an answer.
    I had some bleeding on April 16th and 17th (didn't really look like a period), it wasn't clear red blood, more rust-brown (sorry for the details).
    On April 18th it was gone.
    On April 19th I had a brown smear when wiping, and that was it.
    Currently, I'm not in my fertile window.
    I've also had cramping abdominal pain for a few weeks now.....
    Well, I still had an ovulation test lying around, and I thought, let's test......and I really got 2 thick lines.
    I've tested positive for 2 days now.
    I heard that you can use an ovulation test as a pregnancy test, because LH is almost identical to the pregnancy hormone.
    Is that true?

    Best,

    That's possible, but it doesn't always have to be (from what I hear and read). You could have had an implantation bleed.. when is your due date?

    Hi!
    I was supposed to get my period on April 2nd,
    so it became April 16th.
    There was also some weird bleeding... even in terms of color.
    Anyway, the ovulation tests keep showing two thick lines.

    blueberry then you could do a pregnancy test.. Who knows if that was your implantation. Have you already done a pregnancy test?

    Hi

    I did an ovulation test again this afternoon, still 2 lines.
    I've been in my fertile days since May 8th........So I don't understand this at all.
    Yes, I did a test.
    One from Action and it was negative, if implantation happened on the 16th, shouldn't the pregnancy test be positive by now?

    Yeah, that could be the case, but some women only test late. You could ask your GP for a blood test.

    Hi

    I might have to wait another week... see what comes out then.
    Otherwise, I'll just go to the GP.

    They say implantation takes 10 days.
    Then hCG is produced, right?
  15. Anne87 #16

    That's correct, only after implantation, yes... I hear and read varying stories about the duration of implantation. It's tricky, right... You can always wait a bit, and of course, you can always call your GP if you're not at ease

    Hi

    It is indeed difficult
    Especially when you have symptoms that point to it
    Bigger breasts, bloated, eating pickles at night, mood swings
    If I go from the 16th to now the 27th, there should already be something clear by then.......
  17. Anne87 #18

    Yeah, tricky, right! Does the ovulation test still show positive or haven't you tested anymore? Our bodies can play tricks on us unfortunately... but who knows, something beautiful might be growing in your belly Patience... and that's so hard, isn't it, pff

    Hi

    Tested for the last time yesterday.
    It was still positive.......strange, really.
    I'm definitely not in my fertile window, so yeah.
    Normally that LH peak should go down again.......I've tested before and the LH test just stayed blank.
    Who knows, maybe something beautiful is growing or my body is playing tricks on me.

    Best,
