I have no idea if the expiry date can affect the test result. If I were you I think I might be inclined to buy a new test and do the test again.

I wish you all the best.

Yes, definitely get a new test! I assume there is an expiration date on there for a reason haha, which probably just means the results cant be trusted after the date, but you could very well be pregnant!

Yay!!!!!! Is Positive
Oh my god I still dont believe it.....

I just want to share the great news with every one. I did another pregnancy test actually 2 at the same time and it came back positive, but is it possible that the test is wrong? (dont want to get my hopes up:cry: ). I mean my period is not due yet till about 2 more days, I just cant believe it, and then another thing that is making me dought is that I dont have no pregnancy symptoms only my nipples hurt just a little bit not that much though. What do u grils think? Plz I need some one to talk to and share this happiness with me.

When I first tested I didn't really have any symptoms either besides sore nipples which I didn't really pay any attention to because that was usually one of the signs that my period was going to start. But I just had this nagging feeling that something wasn't right (call me crazy but I was at a party before I found out and had a lot to drink and it didn't faze me at all which I thought was kind of strange) and decided that i'd test just to make sure and sure enough it was positive. Don't worry the symptoms will for sure come and congradulations.

Some have early symptoms, some dun n some have late ones. So dun compare with others but observe ur body and go through this pregnancy stages with everyone to share ur joy and fear. We r here to listen!

Firstly, choose a gyn/ob to guide u n take care of u n ur baby through this 9 months. Start getting pre-natal vitamins and eating healthy food. Do light exercises to keep ur body in great shape n fitness.

When seeing ur doc for the first time, do a through check-up...

Can't wait to hear the baby's first cry, am I right? I am soooooooo happy for uuuuuuuu!!!

Glad u did it. I hope I will do it this month too.

Congratulations!!!

Its an amazing feeling right?, got a feeling that it won't have sunk in yet though hehe, only when I saw my little titch at the scan did I start believing it, I thought that my mind had played games on me etc.
I got a positive test before my period was due too!!, I too had that instinct that said I was pregnant, and even knew deep down that i'd get a positive result even 1 day before my period due !.
Just to let u know, if/when u start getting morning sickness etc, and start feeling soooo tired, just don't let it get you down, keep in mind that it will probably go away at bout 13 weeks!, I felt like crap, didn't think it would go away, and thought that i'd be one of those unlucky women who have morning sickness throughout their pregnancy, instead sure enough at around 13 weeks, it went away!!. I'm now 16 weeks and I feel great, its true what they say, that the second trimester is the honeymoon period, coz the tiredness is gone, got a bump but not too big to get in the way, no morning sickness so i've gone back to being able to eat like normal, I can also let myself go everynow and then, food wise without worrying bout putting weight on!
Anyway good luck!!!! I'm sure everything will go well!!
Keep us updated with how its going!!!!
Xxxxxxxxxx

Thank you so much to all the reply's I really appreciated :blush:.

Hi lovablepetsworld
is good to always right down the day your period came in a calendar, know how many days in between your cycle is mine is 31 days. I would also go into this web site to help me figure out when I would ovulate My monthly cycles and do it according to the days they would say, laying in bed after sex for 20 minutes etc. It seems that the more u try, the harder it gets just relax, dont give up and keep trying it will happen you'll be in my prayers :wink:.
I wish you all the luck in the world and alot of baby dust coming your way, keep us updated.

Thank you lil mama3,

i will do that. My first day of my last period is 29 september and my period is over yesterday(3 october) night. My period cycle is like 30 to 32 days cycle.

So which are the good days/dates for me to try n what should I look out for....... Ok normally when I have sex, I get up and wash becoz I need to urine(sorry about being frank) or its just that the sperm is overflowing our and I can't sleep due to the uncomfortable feeling. Some times, I wipe and sleep.

So what advice do I have becoz I really want a baby and it's my first baby that I am trying. I can't speak to my mum openly as she is the shy type. I am counting on u gals...
