Nc, dh thinks I am crazy too! I will be eating and yell stop it's bad the food is rancid. Dh will laugh and say nope you are just pregnant and weird.

I know this is going to make me sound paranoid an crazy, but I really need your thoughts.

The last 2 days I have been feeling lots of stretchy, pinchy, twinges in my uterus. No cramps or pain.
Now I know this is normal, but this is the worst I have had it. No discharge.

I had one last frer left and I used it this morning, fmu.
And it came up positive straight away, dark line BUT I looked at my last frer which I did about 4 weeks ago, and the test line on that was is darker then it is on today's one, plus the test line is darker then the control line on the previous frer, whereas on today's the test line is lighter then the control line.

Would this worry you? Am I right to be nervouse? Or am I being silly?

Pls help - with your honest opinions, going bonkers

I wouldn't worry about the test at all, the old one may have dried darker or there could be other reasons. Definitely not something to stress about. I've had fairly uncomfortable stretches and twinges this pregnancy, particularly when I wake up. I have to sleep on my left side or I feel like I've pulled a muscle or something in the morning. I think unless it is a sharp stabbing pain it isn't anything to worry about, but if in doubt give your GP or midwife a call and see what they say. xx

Lassie I have been told the pains get worse with each pregnancy for some women. Mine were really bad this time. I was sure I was going to miscarry multiple times and didn't.

lassie - I was POAS addicted with this pregnancy and at a point the tests started to get lighter not darker and i freaked out . well it was that whole hook effect. because I diluted the pee a lot (like half water) and it came out super dark again. so later in pregnancy I don't think it's accurate.

Thanks girls, will try not to worry.
If I popped in and saw a gp they would give me a referal for an ultrasound which I could probably get booked in within a day or two, but I'd feel like such a hypercondriak goose!
It's not so much the twinges that are bothering me, but the darkness of the stupid frer.

Thanks for the reassurance girls

Lassie i did post this on your other thread but have copied my post here to.....

No - really honestly no. Can't believe i'm saying this but step away from the sticks woman!!!!

Firstly the darkness of the line depends on a number of factors anyway including what you've eaten and drunk and the concentration of the pee - thats why the tests come with lots of different pics saying they are all a bfp whatever they look like, a line is a line.

Secondly and most importantly for you when you get too pregnant the tests don't work as well - i took one with ds1 when i was 8-9 weeks (no idea i was pg before then) and got a really weird result test was mean't to be a + for pregnant a - for not i got a very faint | , twice - apparently if you have too much hcg in your system the results go weird (it tells you on the leaflet too calls it the prozone effect or something).

So no really really do not worry - cramps etc as long as not severely painful are perfectly normal in the pregnancy and if anything was wrong you would have painful cramps or bleeding x

I had lots of round ligament pain with Ds1 and DS2 .. sharp pains.. maybe thats what you are having?

If it makes you feel better, I'm having lots of pulling and twinges and sometimes sharp pains, too. I've had what feels like o pain on the left side since my bfp, although the u/s shows that I o'd from the right side.

I wouldn't worry about the test. Once you are this far along I have heard they get wonky.
