December 2026 Babies

Trying for a year, could we finally be pregnant. Fresh eyes please.

My SO and I have been trying for a year, we had one early termination/chemical pregnancy. I took a few tests around when I was supposed to get my period. All negative. I have been having painfully aching breast for 3 weeks now and indicators of a period without one. Went to OBGYN the day after a negative pregnancy test to begin working with specialists on fertility. Initial tests needed to be run on day 3 of my cycle. After now a week late I took some tests yesterday 4 to be exact 3 pregmate between 6 and 9 am and a clearblue later that evening. All faint one pregmate barley, but 3 tests in 3 hours concentration was low. I waited for my morning urine and used 3 different tests, pregmate, clear blue, and a walmart $1 test again 2 faint positives and the walmart looks like possibly just evaporation line if anything.

Because of the early termination my doctor has me going in for a blood test. I cant help but have so many mixed emotions, I want to be happy we finally conceived, but because of the faint lines and inaccuracy of the test im preparing for the negative blood test, and possibly waiting all weekend for results since its Friday.

What are your guys opinions on theses tests?

    My heart goes out to anyone in this waiting game. It is such a hard place to be.
    A close friend of mine went through something very similar. She had faint lines on multiple tests, negative after negative, and then finally a positive blood test. The waiting over a weekend nearly drove her crazy. What helped her was staying busy, staying off Google, and reminding herself that whatever the result, she would handle it.
    The fact that you have faint lines on three different brands is promising. False positives across multiple tests are rare. The breast pain for three weeks without a period is also a strong sign. But the waiting and the uncertainty is just cruel.
    Be kind to yourself this weekend. Whatever the blood test says, you have done everything right. You are not alone in this. So many women are holding their breath right along with you.

  • We are positive!! With healthy increase. Get results of 3rd bloodtest tonight.
  • Hi there! You're not alone, my first pregnancy was a chemical pregnancy. Lost at about 6 and a half weeks. It was really hard for me to recover from that loss, and to be honest I'm still grieving some days. 
    For a few months after that loss, my body wouldn't ovulate and that was due to it still healing from the loss.
    It's exciting and scary to be pregnant after a loss, I miss my first pregnancy when I was carefree but so extremely grateful for this baby no matter what.
    I am so happy for you Momma! 
  • Waiting is the hardest part. With my second pregnancy I took a test that showed negative but I had a gut feeling that I was pregnant. I ended up being pregnant and he is not 3 years old. I had a chemical pregnancy following another loss that I am not even sure what it is considered. Because of the previous miscarriage my period was all over the place but at the end of the day there was not heartbeat when I was supposed to be around 12 weeks. This time around I was feeling exhausted and feeling like I got breast implants when putting oh my clothes. My pants were feeling tight and I felt like something was off. I took a dollar store pregnancy test (my friend who is a nurse says that basically what they use at the ER) after being anxious for days because it was too early. The like showed a faint line and then I waited two days before taking a clearblue that said pregnant as well. I am still holding my breath because of the last time but try to stay hopeful. Be kind to yourself and take it day by day and stay off google and all those AI chats. They can be dangerous! Wishing you the best news !!
