			<description>Hi - ive read these websites for the last few months but this is the first time ive posted and wondering if anyone can advise. My husband and I miscarried a few months ago and have started TTC for the first time this month using the OPK. I have a long and irregular cycle so was unsure and have been using the OPK for about a week now. Last sat i had a positive tests with two dark lines (did it twice just to check) and then it was back to light sun/mon/tues. Then on Thursday i found i had two dark lines again - possibly even darker.
I did a pregnancy test this morning (very early i know but i figured if soemthing was picking up on an OPK it would on a HPT - but very negative.)
Can anyone advise? Sometimes i think my breasts are sore but now im wondering if im going mad :)</description>

			<description>Hi, Im new to this post thing, but always find myself searching for info on them!
Im one crazy lady desperately trying for our third baby. We started in aug, fell pregnant first mth (so shocked, but thrilled!) then unfortunately lost baby just over 5 weeks, docs say it may have been a chemical??? pregnancy. Anyway, took 5 weeks for my period to return after the heavy bleed from loss (awful) and nothing....hoped to fall pregnant straight way, but not for me. We are currently waiting on my period for our third mth trying, now 3 days late and sore boobs, tired, etc. I sometimes think its all in my head though.
So I did a test this morning, first response, and came out neg...so sad, so disappointed!
Then I jump on this sight and did a search for cervical postioning in early pregnancy because i felt mine this morn and it was very high and tightly closed!!!! got a little excited even though id had a neg, because its ALWAYS low and soft! The last time i felt it high i was pregnant with my last child.
anyway, any advice or opinions??? Im going to re-test if my period doesnt come on sat morn.

Thanks for reading!</description>

			<description><![CDATA[hi everyone,
i think i just got a BFP!!! i am 4-5 late with AF which never happens, so i have been slightly expectant. tested on sunday (BFN) tuesday (BFN) wednesday afternoon (BFN) and then FINALLY this morning (fri) second line came up in about 3 minutes and got darker until the 10 min mark. I know they say a lines a line but ...i need some reassurance. what should i do???? test again tomorow?? that's what i did with my first pregnancy. But with harry the test came up on the day AF was due. 

anyway, for some reason i'm less inclined to tell people yet...don't know why. I shouted it from rooftops when i was preg first time.

			<description><![CDATA[Hey girls,
I had IVF done 7 days ago (egg transfer 7 days ago). I have been feeling very pregnant. This will be my 4th baby so im in que with pregnancy symptoms. Im very quesy, sore BB's, feeling hot, tired etc. 

I just did a ClearBlue digital pregnancy test which said 'not pregnant'. So I pulled apart the cartridge and I can definitely see a faint 2nd line which is still visiable within arms reach. Which one do I believe??? :redface:]]></description>

			<description>I had my first IVF treatment 6 days ago with a 4 day transfer egg. Conception would be have been 11-12 days ago. I did a HPT this morning and got a very very faint line that you could really only see in the sunlight (not under the bathroom lights). Would you consider this a BFP? Would it have been too early to test do you think?. My doctor wants me to have a beta blood test on monday but id love to know one way or another before then. Make it a little less scary. :rolleyes:</description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi all
Its been awhile since I was on here.  Hubby & I went thru 18mths of IVF from 2006 & have been riding the adoption rollercoaster for the last 12mths.  Anyway, I don't have a regular cycle as such & it has been 85 days since Day 1 of my last period.  I did a HPT today and it came back as a very fast & strong positive.  Given our history, I am hesitant to believe this (as much as I would be soooooo excited if its true) and have made an appt to see the Dr tommorrow.
Are these HPT's really that accurate?  It says 99%+ on the box, but I just don't know if I could be that lucky?]]></description>
