Invalid pregnancy test

So I did a test earlier it looked negative and put it on the side and came back a few hours later and there is a faint line. Had anyone had this before and actually been pregnant. I also did an ovulation test at the same time and when I came back to that it was quite dark too. I know I can't read it as positive b...

Care package for friend going through IVF

I wondered if anyone in this group who got pregnant via IVF might be able to give me some advice. I'm currently expecting but my best friend is about to start IVF. We've both been super open about TTC and she has been incredibly supportive through my pregnancy so far. I try to be careful of how much I discuss with h...

Confused!

I’m 9dpo today so still early I know! I’ve had very faint lines on multiple tests, including the clear blue early detection. But then negative digital clear blue early detection! (All supposed to be the same hcg levels) Has anyone had similar and still been pregnant?

Slow egg growth

My scan this Monday showed the egg was 10 mm. It's supposed to grow by 1.5 - 2 mm per day. But this Thursday it was only 11 mm. Would you get IUI if it was 18mm by this Monday, despite weird slow growth?

Positive or Evap

Took a clear blue ultra early test saw a faint line at 3 mins then at around 5/6 mins saw this, however done a digital and says not pregnant? Are evap lines meant to be grey? Or is this a clear blue thing where the evap line is blue? 🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄 looks “bluer” in person!

Is this a dye leak or a faint positive?

I took this test this morning, it’s one of those early detection ones and I’m 5 days before my period. I didn’t notice this in the first few minutes but when I looked again this afternoon after being out most of the day, I came back and noticed this line. It’s ever so slightly off centre so I’m thinking it could be ...

Do you guys let strangers hold your baby?

My son today reached for an older lady at our apartment complex. It was surprising to me as he’s never done it before. She asked to hold him and I was skeptical and refused. She seemed friendly but I never met her!

Embryo accumulation for PGT-A

Hello, I just completed my IVF ICSI cycle. Out of 11 eggs collected, 9 were mature and 7 fertilized, resulting in 3 quality B embryos that reached the blastocyst stage.
