I'm so sorry to hear about what happened! I pray for you and hope you will keep me updated... it sounds to me like you have positive symptoms but unfortunately, unless you are late and take a pregnancy test - it's always hard to tell! I was 4 days late last month and totally thought I was (even after neg. preg. tests) but, AF came :( I know this will sound stupid but try not to worry, just take care of yourself as if you are preggers and see where it takes you! we had a miscarriage at 3 months and when I was pregnant my boobs were unbelievably sorre - not something I experienced this time and every pregnancy is different however, it is a good sign!

Good luck and baby dust to you!! :)

The blood you noticed could have been implantation bleeding. Implantation occurs at about 7-10 DPO. What you're describing is right in that window. You're also showing some pregnancy symptoms. I would say, relax and take an hpt in the morning, and good luck!

thank you both very much for your replies! i want to get excited but the "real" me is shaking like a leaf! we have been trying since oct 2010, ironically gave up in sept 2011 only to find out (sadly) it was ectopic and i was whisked in. i'm so confused over the "when to test bit", my periods can be anything from 29-35 day cycles. i used clearblue smiley face, so i know i ovualted approx 12-13 days ago, so do if i test tomorrow is it not too soon? sorry, you think i should know these things? (if im say on a 30 day cycle do i not have to wait until the 11th or12th of feb??) girls, i wish we listened in school, ha ha!!! i have a 13 year old son(had at 19), seemed all too easy back then!!! look at me now, i'm a disaster!

Lol! Don't worry! They didn't teach this stuff in school! If your cycles are 28-35 days, I would wait until CD 36 to test, first morning urine. Good luck to you! If it doesn't happen for you this cycle, I suggest reading Taking Charge of Your Fertility, Toni Weschler. Or at the very least, start temping to confirm ovulation. Fingers crossed, and baby dust for us both!!

hi just to let you know i got a BFP today!!!!!!!!!!!!! i (cos i had an ectopic in nov 2011) immediately rang the hosp who told me to pop in for a blood test, so far so good, i'm approx 4 1/2 weeks, early i know but chuffed!!!!!!!! please god, let me keep baby safe now, guess the pressure is on.
good luck to everyone, truly mean that xxxx
