How soon after conception can you get a positive result? I've done a test, ok 2 tests.... and both have been negative, but I wonder if it's too early to tell yet? Conception would have been last Sunday so 8 days ago, but already I have sore boobs, nausea and funny cramping. If my memory serves me correctly it was almost the same when I was pregnant with Joshua....
And for the record - it was a broken condom, after which I took the ECP, then promptly got a vomiting and diahorrea bug that night so rendered the ECP useless. Eeeeek. |

How pregnant were you when you got your BFP with Joshua? That could be an indication as to whether it's too early for you or not.
For me, I couldn't get a BFP until I was 6 weeks pg so the tests don't work that well for me. Unfortunately, the only way to really know would be to wait it out and test in a few more days... which would be hard I know! |

i got a very very very faint test that was positive a little after ten mins at 8 DPO..and got darker the days after that..(on time) my friend had the same thing happen....broken condom and ECP and still stayed pregnant as well.. :( !!
but I'm not sure whether to wish you luck or not:) hopefully you find out soon.. I'd wait( i know it is awful) and pee every morning if you have pee tests to see what happens.. ------------- Mum to two amazing boys! |

with jack, i tested the day before AF which would've been 3wks after we started TTC and got the BFN...a week and a half later...BFP
with charli, i got a BFP the day of AF being due, which was exactly 2wks after we started TTC 
good luck, i hope it works out how you want it too... 
if it is a BFP....that's one determined little bubba!!  ------------- http://www.alternatickers.com">

Sorry everyone! Having internet issues today but seem to be cleared up now...
Ok, so did a test this morning, still negative, but according to my preggy book about now would be when implantation bleeding would take place.... and I had some very light spotting this morning..... Still feel knocked up too...
Will keep you posted - you chicks rock!! |

Oh Claire thats no good. If it is another MC I would see you dr as I am sure you can get refered to a clinic in AK for reoccuring MC and they help you out when you do get pg again. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |
