But as you have a faint line coming up you should really go to your doctors and see. hiding wont help this.
Good luckx
I'm still not sure why I got that faint positive, or why it was so late- maybe I was pregnant breifly. Either way I am so relived I don't now have to make the biggest decision of my life; raising a baby or ending a life. If I'm being honest, a part of me is oddly disapointed - I think because I was finally getting my head around the idea that I would not have been able to have an abortion. So nearly did my life take a totally different direction, but all I can say is that it's been a learning curve and I think I know a lot more about me now.
Thank you so much to everyone who posted on this thread, your support was very much appreciated. When I couldn't talk to my family and was scared of being judged by my freinds you were here to chew it over with.
Wow i've never heard of that before. Worth bearing in mind in case this happens again
Its basically an extremely early miscarriage
Its very werid when its put in that context
Me too. I only knew about it cause I was actively trying for a baby, so testing early, otherwise I'd never have known.
It's really common, and definitely not a sign that there's anything wrong with you or your ability to have kids in the future, just in case there's any worrying anywhere
I was worrying about that!
Wow thats really sad, im so sorry you are feeling so bad over this.
Its not at all silly though to have these feelings you are mourning the loss of a baby that deep down you actually were very happy about having.
You cant keep this to yourself you need to talk it through with a friend maybe or even your gp.
You cant just bury these emotions and carry on.
Big hugs from me i think you need them xx
That's so sad but I can imagine how you feel
Is a chemical pregnancy like one that isn't really noticed and is gone before it is there?
I know it's hard sweetie, but you've got your WHOLE life ahead of you to have children
Xx
thats a really normal way to feel after a pregnancy scare. Just try and remember the reasons you didnt want to be pregnant. Maybe it just made you realise that its definitely something you want in your future
You learn to read the signs with depression though, of when you're going into a downer, which is something, and i think i am now - I'm very mood swingy and sometimes just don't have the energy to talk to people. I work with children and am often surrounded by babies, pregnant parents, even the resent eastenders story has got me wobbly! It is so exhausting fighting feeling down, but hearing this support and experience has helped a lot. thankyou.
**edit. I meant to add - I haven't told the ex any of this has happened. He is a lovely, lovely guy but we are in different places in our lives, we ended on good terms but are not in contact. He recently had a particularly upsetting family bereavement so I just thought he probably wouldn't benefit any from knowing about this. Did I do the right thing? Are there any guys that have an input on this?
