Positive @ 14dpo but now brown / red blood

I tested positive yesterday (14dpo) with the top of the two tests attached. Tested again today with the second - still a line but doesn’t look any stronger. Got the brown blood (left bottom) yesterday and more pinky (right bottom) today. Should I be preparing myself for the worst?

Am I pregnant?!

So I’m getting really fed up! The last time I had a period was 33 days ago and it’s hard to tell what normal is for me as I only came off the pill in January time. I’m pretty sure I was ovulating 25th of April and actively having sex around that time. I’ve done numerous pregnancy tests since about 10 days post ...

Question!

Just found out I’m 4w3d pregnant and got bloodwork hcg yesterday. It came back as 454. Is that abnormally high? I am panicking because of course Google told me that it may mean multiples and/or defects to the baby if hcg is too high. Did anyone else have high hcg and everything is perfectly fine? SOS I’m freaking out…

Should I test again?

So, I’ve had inconsistent periods due to PCOS for the last couple of years. Last April, I started to get regular periods with 30-40 day cycles, and my cycles started to get closer to a regular cycle length. With help to my supplements and vitamins, I am having a regular and healthy seeming cycle. Me and my partner ...
