Confused! Need help!

JulesDianeJulesDiane member
in TTC after 35

So, I am about a week late... but since it has only been a few months since I have come off the patch.. probably not a huge surprise. I tested last Thursday, and got a BFN. Not a surprise. Well, as of this morning, still didn't have AF, so first thing, I woke up and POAS again. I wiped, and saw some blood.. and I thought "great, AF must  be on her way, there is a waste of a stick." But then I looked down after a minute, and there it was, a BFP. I am not sure what to think now!? Any thoughts?I am still new to all of this.  I don't have any more sticks with me as I am on vacation, heading home today. Should I just wait and POAS tomorrow morning? What should I be thinking?

 TIA!

    Well, if you're still bleeding, like AF-style, it *could* mean a chemical pg.  Or, if it was just spotting, then that's pretty normal and it *could* mean nothing. 

    Instead of using another stick, I'd just call your dr. tomorrow.  False positives are pretty rare from what I've heard, so....congrats!  Smile

    What color was the blood?  If it was brown it could have been implantation bleeding. If it was red it may be a chemical pg but you can't rule anything out just yet.  Call your dr and ask to be seen and if they can do a beta. But for now you're pg. Congrautlations!

    congrats!

    call your doctor tomorrow to get in for blood test! if you feel the need, stop for more sticks today and poas in morning! i know for me that made it that much more real.

    as for the spotting, i was spotting when i got my bfp. it could mean anything but until you know for sure, stay positive!!!! i hope this is your sticky baby!!!!!?

    I had this happen to me exactly. POAS, see blood, think wasted stick, see BFP.  Unfortunately, mine ended up being a chemical as I got full on AF the next day.  At the time, I googled this to death and found out that spotting/light bleeding can be normal in early pregnancy.  Good luck!!  I hope yours is a BFP!!

    I hope this is your bfp, but I would test again in the morning and call your dr. and let them know what's going on.

    Thanks everyone! No, spotting at all since the little bit yesterday morning. Did another test again last night... because I like to be reassured, and as you guys said.. a BFP! Yay! I am staying hopeful! Thanks everyone for their input, it was very helpful since I didn't know what to think! Now time to make that Dr's appointment!

    Well, I made an appointment. Now I have to wait until September 30th to go to the doctor for an ultrasound to see if it is a viable pregnancy. I have to wait!? I stink at waiting! *sigh* Keeping my fingers crossed! :)
