Hey everyone,

I'm completely new to this forum and would love to join in the conversation.
My partner and I have been trying for a baby for 8 months.

This morning I did an early pregnancy test, 1 day before my expected period... I see a second line clearly, but my partner doesn't see it. What do you all think?
Pregnant or not?

Best,

    I see it too. Congrats, take it easy for now. Test again in a day or two.

    Oh really I was starting to think I was just imagining it... Exciting. Yeah, I'll test again in a day or so...

    I see a faint line too. Cautious congratulations!

    Well, then your friend is visually impaired haha. I can see it too. Personally, I think it's a bit light for just one day, but if it adds up, that's fine.

    Tested again today... And yes, it's a bit clearer now. Although it's still a very faint line... That's why I put a filter over it.

    Congratulations, girl. Just keep testing. See if it's going up.

    I can clearly see it! Congratulations!
    It’s clearer than my first test and I’m now 24 weeks pregnant

    Congratulations @Fatima!
    That's great to hear.. Another test tomorrow and then an appointment with the doctor for a blood test.. That should give a definitive answer right?
    But I also think it's likely. Seems to have some symptoms after all :-)

    Had a blood test done and the HCG level is 12, which means I'm pregnant but it's low... Since this morning I've also had bleeding, so it doesn't look good

    Oh, that's so sad. So it didn't work out. Sending you lots of strength.

    That's so sad, girl. I had one last November, but I was pregnant again in December. So it can happen quickly again, by the way. It might take a bit longer for your cycle to return. I ovulated just 4 weeks after my miscarriage. It doesn't have to be that fast, but it can be.
