Pregnancy test

Hi moms- I recently had a miscarriage at 6 weeks. Because I wasn't very far along the Dr said we could start trying as soon as I felt ready mentally. I took a few weeks and then we started trying again. I should have started my period over the weekend, but the weekend came and went and still no period. I haven't felt any different which is odd. With my first pregnancy and my miscarriage I knew right away because of the sore breasts. This morning I took a pregnancy test just to see, but I wasn't expecting anything. Its faint but there are two lines!! I am going to take another test in a few days to make sure. In the mean time I don't know if I should tell my husband. What if I'm wrong. What if I'm not pregnant? Do I tell the hubby now or try to wait tell I'm certain? I suck at lying and secrets are the worst. 

Edit: I took out the picture. Sorry for breaking the rules. I was more excited than anything. Nowhere in this post am I asking if I'm pregnant. It was more pen to paper or in this case finger to keyboard of my thoughts in this moment. Still not sure when I'll tell my husband. I think it needs to set in first. I'm excited for this journey. Congrats to all the other moms out there. I hope we can enjoy this together. 

Re: Pregnancy test

  • Hello, Poster: A few things: First, you might want to change your screen name so it will be easier for us to tag you and remember who you are! Second, I believe it is moderately against The Bump's policy to post pregnancy tests anywhere but on the first trimester board (I could be wrong)... however, no worries! Also, read the guidelines pinned at the top of the board. Generally, you'll want to introduce yourself on the introduction board  because everyone looks there! Having said that, there are definitely two lines there! I wouldn't even call that second line faint for your first test! Come on over to the introduction thread, because it looks like you are a J'18 mama! I'm not sure what you mean if you are wrong. Did the line show up within ten minutes? It def has color and is a clear positive. If you don't feel like telling your husband, that is totally up to you, but I wouldn't keep it because you are worried you are wrong. In this moment, you are pregnant!

  • @EmilyLove25 Is correct, it is against TOU to post pee stick pictures anywhere but on the First Trimester board in the designated thread - "What does a positive pregnancy test look like". It is also against TOU to ask us if you are pregnant. That said, yes, it looks like a line to me and I hope you will intro in our Introductions thread and stick around!
  • Personally, I wouldn't wait because I just couldn't hold it in. I don't want to keep that a secret! It's too hard. :) I also don't think that's a faint positive. It appears clearly positive. Waiting or not waiting is totally up to you.
