@livingwithriah, I’m shocked I’m 23 weeks already! I feel like I was just announcing our pregnancy to everyone!

@inked_mommy92, we all are when we are ready to meet our bundles of joy! I promise it will fly by!

@livingwithriah, Thanks love! 💙🙏🏻 I’m ready to meet this handsome little boy. 16 weeks feels so long but I know it’s really not I’m just impatient!

@inked_mommy92, thank you 🧡 and I wish you nothing but the best through your pregnancy!

@livingwithriah, You’re welcome girl! I’ve been where you’re at.. it’s hard. It took my husband and I over a year to get pregnant with our son!

@livingwithriah, Take a warm bath and just relax if you can. Stress isn’t good for your body ❤️ I’ll pray for you and send baby dust your way. Your time will come!

@inked_mommy92, exactly.. I’ve done the dollar store ones and clear blue but all negatives. I’m just trying to breath through it. Thank you so much 🧡

@livingwithriah, What test brand are you using? I’ve always used the cheap ones from the dollar store and I do the pink dyes never blue dyes because they have been known to give false positives and what not. I’d say give it another week and retest but try not to stress or think about it I know it’s easier said than done.

@inked_mommy92, and I only started stressing when everything started coming back negative with no sign of my period.

@inked_mommy92, I did a blood test at 4 days late and it came back negative but she didn’t actually check my HCG levels she just checked to to see if it would turn the test positive. So she said it’s a possibility still but idk.

@livingwithriah, Have you been stressed at all? I’d call your OB and have them do a blood test. Don’t give up hope ❤️❤️ it will happen when you least expect it.

@inked_mommy92, 1 week (7 days)

@livingwithriah, How late is your period?

@inked_mommy92, that will be me if mine turns positive this time or anytime. I just don’t know why else my period would be so late... I think I gotta stop testing and just wait at this point.

@livingwithriah, I understand. I had a miscarriage in Feb before I got pregnant with my son and when I took the test for my son I couldn’t look at it because I was afraid of disappointment and when it turned positive I hit my knees and just cried.

@inked_mommy92, I think my symptoms might be in my head but idk at this point I can’t tell. I just don’t want to let go of hope.

@livingwithriah, I was incredibly tired and my boobs were extra sore. I didn’t get morning sickness for another month or so and I was extremely sick all the way until my third trimester.

@inked_mommy92, with my first I tested positive the day before my period was due but I miscarried at 7 weeks.. this one is nothing like that one. If you don’t mind me asking did you experience any symptoms during those first 8 weeks? how was it for you?

I didn’t get a positive until I was 8 weeks with my daughter. However with my son I had a positive 5 days after my missed period. @livingwithriah,
