Trying to conceive

I am new here. However, I have been reading on this site for a few months. I have went off of BC in June when I got married. My AF has been normal since. We have been trying to conceive since June. I was supposed to start my AF on September 25th, but I didn't. So, I took a HPT and it came out positive. I didn't believe it, so I took another one and it was faint, but there. So, here I was all excited and then I got my period on Oct. 1. I went to the doctor and he said the tests were false positives. I had never heard of this happening. I was devistated because we were so excited about this. I have no idea why my period was a week late. It has been pretty normal since I have came off of the pill. I just feel so discouraged. He doesn't have any kids and I have 2. I am 29 years old. I read in an article that because of my age it could take between 5 and 7 months to get preg. Well, this will be the 5th month. This waiting is HORRIBLE!!!!!!

Sounds like Chemical Pg to me, I don't know what else they would call a false posative. Hang in there, we are all in the same boat as far as not wanting to wait etc. :)

Please do not make yourself crazy, your time will come.

Even in the best circumstances you only have a 15-20% chance each month of becoming pregnant. I dont mean to be discouraging but thats a fact so if it does not happen even in 7 months, keep pushing on it will eventually.

Stay positive!

It sounds like a chemical pg. which is like an early m/c. You concieved but either the little peanut didnt attach or couldnt stay attached. It could have been other reasons too like mother nature taking care of its self when theres a problem she does that. but the good news is you are able to get PG you just need to get the little peanut to stick. so you could try 81mg baby asprin. the ladys on here take it and say it works. Good luck. ++++++and sticky~~~~~~vibes.
