The photo is on the page !!!

What do you think of this test? I took it on Tuesday (dr Original from Etos). It's not very visible in the photo, but in real life, the line has a pink/purple color. Within the reading time, the second line from this brand also appeared within the same time frame!! I did an Action test yesterday and nothing, and today at 2 PM there's a very faint line visible!! I'm now a week overdue.

    I see it! But are you really already a week late, or could it be that you had a late ovulation? Because he's actually quite light for someone who's a week overdue...

    @gwen was supposed to have gotten her period on Friday the 17th (since I stopped taking the pill in May and have had a regular cycle since then), so it's now 7 days late! But I have to say, with my last pregnancy, I also only tested late and got a strong positive line... but it feels weird that both the Action and KV tests came back negative.

    I did indeed look at it wrong. My period should have been on January 20th, so at the moment I wrote the bit above, I was 4 days late *oops*... But now I'm already 15 days late. The photo on my profile, I took four of those and all four came out the same. I also did two kv2 for 5 and just did Action to see what they do. Unfortunately, all negative. Yesterday at the GP they did a test and that was negative too. I'm getting a blood test today and will get the results tomorrow. So I'm curious what that will show. I do have symptoms like nausea (this morning I was really throwing up), sensitive breasts and visible veins (also on my upper legs), headaches, binge eating, frequent urination, and sometimes sharp pains in my belly and groin area. Honestly, I haven't even been thinking about it until yesterday when the test at the GP was also negative.

    P.S. Many of you will probably also check my other questions and can read that my husband was tested (this was less than a year ago). He still needs to get tested, but after a very difficult period in which we lost our 6-month-old son after a 5.5-month hospital stay, nothing came of that (stupid, I know, but sometimes other things take priority). And no, I didn't cheat. My GP also says the chance is nil but doesn't really believe that I just skipped a period despite everything we've been through, because that probably would have happened much earlier and not just 9 months after losing our son. But well, as long as we don't have the blood test results yet, we'll just have to wait.

    Sorry folks for the longgggg story but I just needed to get it off my chest!! Even though only 1 person replied *hihihi*

    That's absolutely terrible. Really so heavy. Every parent's nightmare. What a miracle it would be if you've managed to get pregnant after all. Sending lots of strength and I hope you're pregnant, that's how it should have been.

    I'm completely speechless. What pain and grief you must have.

    Thanks for your reply.. it would indeed be a miracle my husband and I have already told each other that if it turns out that way, then our little boy has made sure of it. And my two other kids would be super happy about it too.. they miss their little brother terribly, and especially the oldest keeps asking if there's going to be another baby coming.
    As soon as I know something tomorrow, I'll give an update here!!

    Good luck tomorrow! I'll keep an eye on it and cheer you on as hard as I can.

    Update:
    Just spoke to the GP and the blood test is negative too!! I don't get it, I really feel so different from how I felt during the pregnancies with my other kids.. I'll wait another week and then contact the GP again if necessary.

    Oh my, that's so uncertain. If it weren't for that, would you still want to go for another baby, or is that no longer an option?

    Yeah, still unsure... just about 3 drops of brown discharge in my underwear, but that's (sorry for the details) and I really don't feel like I'm getting my period!! But we'll just have to wait and see.. I've decided to wait until after the weekend, then maybe take another test if I still haven't gotten my period, and then contact my GP again regardless of the result.
    Yes, we'd still like another child, but then my husband would have to undergo a reversal surgery (if the vasectomy was done well, sometimes it can reverse itself), but such a surgery costs quite a few euros that you have to pay yourself, so that would have to be saved up.

    Wishing you lots of luck, it can still go any way. I hope it turns out positive for you!

    Oh no, unfortunately I got my period this morning, 17 days overdue. Just going to see how this period goes. If it's different than usual, I'll contact my GP. But for now: NOT PREGNANT

    Sending you lots of strength with this disappointment. I hope you get pregnant again soon.
