I feel so silly writing this! But as you all know in the first 12 weeks all you do is worry, I had my first BFP (if you can even call it that) on Friday, two cheapies came up with a faint line, the next day I took a clear blue digits and after a few minutes it came up “pregnant”, the next day (yesterday) I took a FRER expecting a blazing hard positive and still it was a really faint line (noticeable definitely, just faint). I was unsure of when I ovulated with my first so I tested with a FRER anywhere between 9 and 13 dpo and it was a blazing positive within about 10 seconds, no doubt about it! I’m sitting here wondering why is it different this time? Is there something wrong? Tomorrow is AF due day and although I know she’s not coming and that faint lines are positives anyway, I can’t help but sit and doubt and worry ☹️

Does anyone have any reassurance they can give me?

Symptoms at 13dpo

Mild nausea/horrible taste in mouth (like a hangover)

Mouth drier than the Sahara desert

The feeling of needing diahorrea but then being slightly constipated

Lots of stretchy wet Cm (this is recent and I still have dry periods in between)

Lots of period like cramps

Shooting pains in lower abdomen (specifically left side) especially when I stretch or sneeze

Crazy hot flushes, I can’t sleep I’m so warm

Spot breakouts on face

Thirsty all the time

exhausted

Surely if I feel all of this the hcg would be strong enough for a stronger positive? 😢
