Okay so I took a pregnancy test that night. Things were adding up. it came back as half a positive. Like one solid control line and half of the second 'your pregnant' line. So I took another one. It was more faint. Another 'oh shit' moment for me. I kept it to myself for the night. Id test again in the AM when my HGC levels would higher in my urine. So I woke up the next day. Pee'd on one stick. It wasnt working! The purple dye wasnt going up the stick like it should of been! So I took another a little while later when I could force myself to pee lol It came back positive! When I went back later to look at the other one, it was also positive! 4 positives. Those are positives right? 2 lines yes. 1 line no. I am seeing two lines, right? Ive used this brand before. They come in a box of 5 strips. I used them when I found out I was pregnant with Haleigh.
First top two are from Thursday. Bottom two are from Friday morning. |
So just to be 100% sure, I did what ever other woman does. I run to CVS and pick up a 3 pack of EPT. I waited an hour and pee'd on the stick. Negative. I took another one a few hours later and same thing. Negative. I asked my cousin what it meant and she said to do it again in the morning. So I did. Pee'd on the stick and NEGATIVE! 3 negatives to my 4 positives. I started spotting a little today. Not much but a little speck here and there. I figure it was from messing around with hubs this morning.
Top two from Friday. Bottom from this morning. |
So what does this all mean? Well I can think of two things.
1. The test pack I used was faulty and the batch was bad giving me a false positive(which is rare).
OR
2. I had a chemical pregnancy.
Id much rather have the 1st option over the second. Because the second means I have lost yet another pregnancy. Which right now, I really emotionally could NOT take the news of that. I mean seriously. After losing one baby and the recent drama with Turtles health all in a 5 month time span..... I might just lose my last thread of hope I have left for any chance of having a normal freaking year.
Over dramatic? Maybe to you. You haven't had to go through the last 5 months. I pray that you never do and that you never judge a woman who has.
So what do I do now?
Wait. Thats all I can do.
Lately, my lifes been one great big waiting game. And Im tired of waiting.
OUCH for Cliffs car....
ReplyDeleteHmmm...very interesting about the tests though....I would just go with the EPT tests...BUT I wouldn't say you have a chemcial pregancy, don't think like that, the strips were just faulty is all!
Yeah, he wasnt too happy with me LOL But he has a nice 'kiss' from the tow hitch to remember me by whenever he sees it.
ReplyDeleteIm going with the EPT. Only because I wanna think positive. My cousin(RN) agreed that it sounded like a chemical pregnancy with everything Ive been experiencing symptom wise and the tests being positive. HGC has to be present to get a positive as clear as I did. So it must of been just leaving my system. Im not okay with it but there is nothing I can do now. God has a plan and even though I dont understand it at times, I know its all for the best.
Thinking positive! Tomorrow will be another positive day with Justins lab results!
