Grab a test! (For anyone wondering if they're pregnant)

Yeah, sure, he might've screwed up, and hey, let's just hope he fixes it, right? 😁

As for my own mess... honestly, whatever. It is what it is. Guess it was just meant to go down this way. 😉

Did you end up getting an M in the end?
Your test was positive, wasn't it? I was under the impression that an ectopic pregnancy wouldn't show a positive result... 😕
Did he schedule you for another follow-up exam?

Edit: I just read that hCG can indeed be positive, though perhaps the levels rise too slowly or don't rise at all... 😢
I find myself thinking that there might still be a chance he simply misread the situation... 😕

My period started the same day I saw him, on Friday. He gave me some extra meds just in case it didn't come, and told me to call him immediately if I noticed any weird discharge

Luckily, my period came. He said those cysts will most likely burst once my cycle starts, since they're watery, so he wants me back in for a checkup on May 14th.

there will be a second time...

It won't happen again, but mark my words, it’ll happen once more 😉

Wolf, I feel for you, really. But honestly? Better they’re just clean than some kind of alien life form.
It used to be the same for me when I was younger—my cycle would be off by like 17 days just because of the cleaning routine. Now? It's finally settled down. Almost as predictable as a Swiss watch. 😁

She'll get through this. Just don't let the depression sink in too deep. That moment will come eventually. Take care. 😉

Come on, Douglas Taylor2, don't you dare give up now! 😢 You can't just say "there won't be a next time," seriously, please, just go for it 😁
btw, black lotus, that baby gear is honestly the absolute best 😁 little onesies and guitars, haha... where on earth did you find that? I think I might need some too 😁

I think I might actually want a little goth baby 😁

I happened upon this particular corner of the web recently... an online boutique specializing in small-scale, artisanal goods. It’s one of those digital storefronts that attempts to capture a certain sense of curated simplicity, though whether it truly succeeds in escaping the clutter of modern e-commerce remains to be seen. There is a quiet, almost deliberate quality to the presentation, much like walking through a high-end shop in a sleepy suburb of Connecticut... very understated, if a bit detached from the frantic pace of typical retail. One wonders about the logistics behind such niche endeavors, but I suppose there is a certain charm in the pursuit of the obscure... if only for a moment.

I find myself staring at this website again, and I can’t help but feel a certain sense of profound exhaustion. It attempts to project an image of being "cool," yet the entire aesthetic feels like a desperate grasp at relevance that just isn't quite landing... It reminds me of those overly polished corporate retreats in Silicon Valley where everyone pretends to be spontaneous while following a very strict, very dull script. There is a hollow quality to the digital veneer here, a sort of manufactured energy that lacks any true soul. One wonders if anyone actually finds this engaging, or if it's simply another exercise in chasing trends that were already obsolete by the time they were uploaded to the server... It’s all rather wearying to witness.

What exactly seems to be the issue with your testicles...?

Look, I'm not giving up, I'm just being realistic. There probably won't be a second chance because, let's face it, it likely won't happen, but I'm telling you, there will be 😉

I'll probably be testing again tomorrow morning!!
But if that crappy Clearblue test is wrong about $33... ugh, I can't even.. 😁🤣

Well, didn't you take a test back on April 27th? If so, why hasn't your period shown up yet?

I took a test about a week ago, using one of those Clearblue ones... and it came back as a solid negative. But honestly, I did it before my period was actually due since last month's flow was pretty light and I was feeling all the symptoms, so I didn't really feel like waiting around to see what would happen.
My period still hasn't shown up yet, though—it's running about 4 or 5 days late now—so I think I'll go ahead and take another one today!

Well, that test was probably a bit of a waste of money $33 🙂 but you should definitely be able to see something by tomorrow 👍

I was thinking that maybe at least the negative wouldn't have looked so washed out. Apparently, you can use Clear at any time of day—though honestly, if I were getting paid that little, I probably wouldn't bother—and I used mine around 5 PM, yet the negative was still super distinct for a few seconds! I’m planning to pick up some cheaper strips tomorrow morning because, well, I don't really have much of a choice. My period is usually pretty rough; everything hurts before, during, and after, but right now I actually feel okay. No cramps or stomach aches at all...

Best of luck to you!!! 👍

I guess I was wondering if anyone here has ever had an experience where a Clearblue test gave a totally wrong result?

Just wanted to give you guys an update, I took another test this morning, and once again - 😢
I haven't started my period yet, so I'm really hoping it isn't anything serious 😢

Auuu, damn it, what a joke. A total mess. And here I was, actually letting myself feel hopeful about a positive result.

But look, it’ll happen. It always happens right when you stop giving a damn. That was my pattern every single month. We’d try so hard, nothing would happen, just month after month of disappointment. Eventually, I just told myself, "To hell with this, I'm not stressing over it anymore." I finally just relaxed and figured, "whenever it happens, it happens." And you know what? By the next month, it happened because I wasn't even looking for it.

And since we were trying, I was constantly wearing Ulo. If I thought I might leak through my pants, I'd throw one on... and then nothing. Nothing happened. I ended up wasting entire boxes of them for absolutely no reason.
It’s almost funny now, looking back at how much I struggled with all of this 16 years ago.

It'll happen. 😉

Oh boy 😢
If it doesn't show up within the next week, you should probably take another test...
