Ok I came off the pill about 2 months ago and last cycle was 32 days. I have always had cycles areound the 30 day mark. I have been trying to watch out for fertile signs (CM and cervix pos) and my plan was to start taking temps when AF came this month my plan was to try to avoid pregnancy but if it happens it happens.

Thing is i was due for AF on Sunday if this cycle was also 32 days. I had been feeling really sick so did a preg test on sat during the day and it was neg. Then on Monday morning did another one and after 7 mins a wee second line came up but the instructions said a positive would come within 3-5mins and not to look at it after ten. On Tuesday did another test (same brand) and again after 7 mins another wee line came. I went out and bought 2 more and Ben made me do one that afternoon and the same thing happened again but those instructions said within 10mins and it came after about 7. So whats the deal am I preg or not? I have one more test so how long would you reccommend waiting to test until I will know for sure?

As far as I understand a second line will appear if there is any trace of HCG, the preggy hormone. So I would be inclined to say that is a yes! ... maybe it is just that it is so early that the trace is minimal, hence waiting so long for a second line?

I would prob go to the doc for a blood test or maybe give it another week and try again?

I think you are pregnant.

I have just found out I'm pregnant as well, and I tested early. At 10DPO my second line came up at aobut 7 mins and at 11DPO (today), it came up at about 5 mins.

I would recommend going to the doctor to get a beta (blodd) test to double check.

Good luck!!!!

Congrats Tarshaa

Rachel yep i reckon your preggie too. With both Kobe and Addison it took longer than the 5 minutes they say and even at the doctors it took longer, she thought it was negative but then a line came up after about 8 minutes. Ive never had a test turn positive even after an hour (no matter how much i wished that little line was there!)
Congrats, thats very very exciting.

I agree that it sounds like a positive...perhaps a trip to the doctor is in order to confirm it!

Thanx guys I'm kinda scared actually about the whole newborn thing again. I've been feeling really sick for about 2 weeks now and I never had that with Jack so I did kinda suspect it.

Robyn my mums off work this week so I'm at her place so she can play with Jack.

Congrats Tashaa we can be due in june buddies

Sounds positive to me! Dont forget that the companies are extra careful as they dont want law suits if the test is wrong!!!
