Ok so went to the doctor on Wednesday about the pain I have been having on my left side off and on along with what feels like uterine pulsing discomfort. They did blood work and it was normal so not pregnant. Doctor expects I either have a cyst or the start of another ectopic pregnancy. So today I took a test and the start of this second line was there in 30 seconds, but it was hard to capture on camera. At 10 minutes it looked like the photo. I am starting to think doc may be right and it is the start of another ectopic. Wednesday she had me schedule an ultrasound for the 25th to check because that is the soonest they could get me in. I just don’t know what to think right now. I don’t know if I can mentally handle a 3rd miscarriage.

@JL - I've always thought half a line means the test was "invalid". Being in limbo is so horrible, thats a long time to have to wait for a scan
7dpo here. Little bit of cramping today, had more RLP when I got up too fast overnight. Trying to not get my hopes up. It's my birthday this week. A BFP would be amazing, but I keep telling myself a BFN means I can have some birthday drinks with some friends on the weekend.

@emma it's scary but it might be best babe... It might also help with getting pregnant faster afterwards as it cleans out everything and opens you up for sperm Good luck babe
@JL I hope its not another ectopic but a normal baby and that the test is actually positive I have my fingers crossed for you
@mustique I love how positive you are staying I couldn't do it for sure... Hopefully the RLP will be a tell sign that you are pregnant!!

Just a quick update from me... I attached my bd schedule underneath and I hope it's enough... Had a lot going on last night, SO and I went to see a movie and when we got up to leave I instantly had nausea and I couldn't keep my eyes open... Its like tiredness and sickness hit at once... The smell of the garlic in the food we had also put me off which is odd as I usually love garlic... Also had period cramps after bd this morning which is odd... I'm trying not to read into things too much I probably just had too much popcorn or something... SO told me last night "no more wine until we know if you are pregnant"... He says the sperm will get drunk and not know where to swim lol
